Services

Sarah can care for

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Availability

My work schedule is Sunday-Tuesday 8am-6pm. Since I’m on the road all day as a mobile dog groomer, there could be times where I’m getting off work later than expected. I do not accept requests for young puppies or kittens at this time due to my work schedule. However, I will try to be as accommodating as possible with pet parent’s requests.

If you have specific instructions on how you want your pet cared for while you’re away, I would be more than happy to follow them. Written instructions are very much appreciated!

Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

If your pet needs special needs for care you’d like me to follow, for example medications or any other medical/ behavioral issues, please let me know or leave instructions. I’ve certified for pet CPR and first aid. I would also appreciate vaccinations being up to date if possible, but it is not required.

A typical day

Depends on the pet parent’s instructions for the visit, but I can walk, play, snuggle, or hangout with your fur baby. If the owner is alright with me taking them on an outing in a specific location, I can do that as well. I’ll inform you on my arrival/ departure times on the days I go into work. Of course I’ll send daily updates and pictures!

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Sarah and I’ve been caring for dogs and cats professionally since 2017. I grew up with many kinds of farm animals along with cats and dogs. I have two dogs right now, Lady and Lucy. Both are hound mixes and seniors. I currently work as a mobile dog groomer all over North Raleigh and surrounding areas. I have experience with all kinds of breeds and sizes from a small Chihuahua to a Great Dane and everything in between. I’m pet CPR/ first aid certified and can administer medication (prescribed pills or supplements from vet). I have experience caring for puppies as well as elderly pets. I'm gentle, patient, and firm, but loving with any dog or cat I meet. Occasionally my husband, Josh will help me out by doing check-ins on the weekends if needed and permitted by the pet parent. Along with Rover guarantee, I’m also insured with Pet Care insurance, so you can book worry free. I look forward to the opportunity of taking care of your fur babies while you're away! 😊
