Experienced in rescue and training!
Pet care experience
I have never lived in a home without a dog! I have personally trained all of my dogs and currently have three rescues. I work with a rescue organization and have experienced all personalities, from overly hyper to shaking-in-their-paws nervous. I have fostered dogs, picked them up from transports (this is where we take dogs from high-kill shelters in the south and bring them up north to be adopted), trained, babysat (or "dogsat"), etc. I have availability in the mornings and afternoons and can also open up some availability in the evenings if necessary. I'm able to handle 2 dogs at a time or, if they cannot walk together, I can extend the visit so that each dog can go individually. I can't wait to meet your furry best friend!
Reviews
Sarah is excellent and Cooper LOVES her. He didn’t like getting into his harness but after 3 walks with Sarah he practically jumps into it! I especially appreciated that when they first met Cooper was a little bit afraid of Sarah but she took her time and knew just what to do. within a few minutes they were fast friends! Sarah is a real professional don’t hesitate to hire her!
Sarah is incredible! Always on time and I can tell our pup is happy and taken care of when we return! I am so happy with Sarah's diligence and care!
Sarah is an amazing help! I used her consistently for almost 2 months while I was busy in school. She came by multiple times a week (sometimes with short notice) to check on my pup. She cared for him like he was her own and I never had any hesitations with her. I would HIGHLY recommend Sarah!
Sarah was terrific with my two cats, and also looked into a couple of other house related matters while I was away. I was able to focus on other things, knowing that all was well at home. Peace of mind, priceless.
About Sarah S.
Communication
Skills
Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet
I am not against any breeds. However, your dog MUST be good with children as I have a toddler who will most likely be with me on all visits, walks, etc. Sniffing, licking, and/or jumping is not a concern - he is very used to dogs. Aggressive barking, growling, or any signs leading to uneasiness will not work.
A typical day
We love walks! We live in a condo community on the Vernon/Ellington line that goes in a full mile - perfect for a walk! If staying at our house, your dog will love playing with my two pooches! They will be tired out in no time!
