Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

Before your dog’s stay, please let me know about any special care instructions or individual needs they may have. This includes their regular feeding schedule, type and amount of food, medications or supplements, allergies or dietary restrictions, and any medical, behavioral, or mobility needs. Please also let me know about their usual routine, sleeping preferences, exercise needs, fears or triggers, and anything else that will help me make their stay as comfortable, safe, and enjoyable as possible. The more I know about your dog, the better I can care for them and keep them happy while they’re with me.

A typical day

While staying in my home, dogs will have plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and mental stimulation. I have a large, secure backyard where they can run, play fetch, explore, and sniff around at their own pace. I also provide plenty of brain-stimulating activities and enrichment to keep them happy and engaged. Depending on their individual needs and energy level, they’ll have a balance of active play, exploration, relaxation, and plenty of love and attention throughout their stay.

Pets

Loving pet care backed by knowledge

Pet care experience

I have worked with veterinarians. I have studied multiple breeds and trained multiple dogs. I have knowledge of cats, dogs and rain that comes with them. I have had multiple dogs boarding and know who not to let play together. I realize all dogs don’t have to get along and some dogs needs space but love and respect their boundaries and needs. I have an extensive backyard for play and training basic commands.

Sarah did an excellent job and was great at updating me on my pet's status and antics. She clearly understands cats - and cat behavior - and I would definitely use her again!
