Hey! I’m Sarah. I’m a great pick!
Pet care experience
Hey dog parent, I’ve had dogs my whole life, and I’m a true empath. Apart from connecting to your dog on an emotional and spiritual level, I know how to handle almost any tough mutt! I regularly dog sit for family members whose dogs include: an Australian Shepherd, an Imperial Shitzu, and a Longhaired Dachshund. I’ve even taken care of Labradors, Huskies, Boxers, German Shepherds and more! I understand that each dog has a different set of needs, level of attention, behaviors, grooming specifications, and quirks. With that in mind, I think my adaptability and flexibility make for powerful assets when handling dogs of all sizes and characters. It’s something that comes with a natural ease after years of taking care of family dogs for years. I truly believe I have an energy or aura, if you will, that makes dogs feel safe and comfortable almost right away. I respect their boundaries, but I feel I’m capable of connecting to almost any dog on a deep emotional level. I genuinely feel like I become friends with dogs after continuous and patient care. I’m Sarah, and I’m a great dog sitter, walker, groomer, runner, play friend, and person for your pup.
Reviews

Sarah was easy to work with , communicative and my dog was super happy when I got home.

Sarah was awesome! Really responsive and communicative. Flexible when I forgot a few things in my instructions. I’d definitely book Sarah to walk my dog again!
Sarah is an excellent dog walker and caregiver. Firsthand, I've seen her go on walks long enough to exhaust a hyperactive Aussie shepherd - as well as take care of two different sized dogs (German shepherd + chihuahua mix) while making sure each pup's needs were met. She loves playing with dogs, talking to them, and being around them. I'd definitely recommend her as an enthusiastic and responsible dog caregiver.
Sarah has watched my 2.5 year old Australian shepherd numerous times over the last year and a half. She is absolutely great with her. Tumi, my pup, is a handful to say the least and requires far more attention and exercise than most dogs. Sarah has watched Tumi from time spans ranging up to 2 weeks, and I have never had any issues. Best of all, Sarah genuinely enjoys watching Tumi and Tumi loves her company, which for any fellow per owners out there, is the most important. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker or pet sitter.

Safety, trust & environment
I play with my dogs in the apartment, and take them outside as frequently as needed. I walk them around the block (around 1 mile) at least twice a day. I may also them on hikes if they are well behaved around other dogs and do well on leash. I feed them according to their needs and I usually play guitar quite a bit, which my dog Dexter enjoys.
Home
Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet
I need to know how often your dog needs potty breaks, if they have disciplinary issues, or if they do not get along with other dogs. I also would like to know if your dog has any disabilities or specific grooming standards. I will do my best to attend to your dogs special needs.
A typical day
I love going on walks, playing with your pup, playing fetch, practicing guitar (which relaxes them), practicing tricks (if they know them), and generally being patient and attentive to their specific needs.
