Excellent animal caretaker.

Pet care experience

For as long as I can remember I've been in love with all types of animals, but especially dogs and cats. I've take care of animals since I was 10, when I adopted my first cat. I think cats and dogs deserve and require excellent care, such as affection, careful supervision, playtime, attention and physical activity. Providing this care is not a job to me; it's something I am driven to do and I have a strong passion for it. I can guarantee that by choosing me to look after your pet, that your loved one(s) will be in good and safe hands. I'm happy to accommodate to each pet owner's needs, whether you require frequent communication, a report, periodic updates or just the reassurance that your pet is with someone who can responsibly care for your pet. This is also true for your pet - I have an elderly dog with arthritis, incontinence and hip dysplasia and another dog with severe separation anxiety - I am familiar with the need for supervision, extra care, providing medicine and comforting older or special needs pets.

Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, since I love all dogs big and small. I enjoy knowing all kinds of information and any information about the dogs, because each one has their own distinct personality and their own quirks.

A typical day

I can walk dogs anywhere, but really enjoy finding small or big parks where the dogs can explore their surroundings and experience something new and fun. I really enjoy trying to teach dogs new tricks, no matter how old they are. It's really amusing watching how dogs learn so quickly. I also love giving the elderly dogs some extra affection and cuddles since they really deserve that! With puppies, I enjoy tiring them out with a good long walk and a lot of playtime.
