Highlights
Pet care experience
@ PBdogWhisperer Pack Hikes & More!
I ALREADY LOVE YOUR DOG! Highly skilled and experienced dog handler, dog photographer & professional pet care provider. Friends, family and strangers have called me an animal whisperer my whole life. Throughout my childhood I had many pets including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, chickens (oh the fresh eggs!), fish, bunnies, rescued abandoned animals, and even a baby pot bellied piglet at one point! Needless to say I'm THAT animal person - & I will always ensure any animal in my presence has the highest level of care possible. I have been a pet & house sitter for 15+ years. I am very tidy & respectful in others’ homes. My clients appreciate my reliability, trustworthiness, and peace of mind they receive when choosing me. they can relax knowing that I am there for their dog and that their dog is happy. Im here to give plenty of cuddles, affection, outdoor time & exercise in your absence. I cater care to each dog’s personal needs and LOVE photographing their unique personalities. Ive worked in family homes since 2006 & started working as a dog walker in 2017 walking up to 10 dogs daily. For several years I handled a lot of dog volume & gained the experience to handle any dog breed, size or age. Prior to this I was walking and sitting friends and neighbors pets for free purely for my love for animals and the opportunity to be around and learn from them. Now, I am a full time pet sitter and serve many longstanding clients in pacific beach, La Jolla & specifically the Birdrock neighborhood. Clients understand the demand I receive & understand it’s necessary to book several months in advance. Often times I receive requests up to a year prior to secure their dates with me. * Word of mouth has spread and I am now accepting pet sitting clients in other cities. Seriously inquiries for travel pet sitting services only.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I pet SIT AND STAY (see what I did there?) in the owners homes. the dogs get to stay home with all of their comforts, which I find is less stressful for them when you're gone anyway. I hold a high regard for my clients, their pets and their homes. You can relax & trust you'll come home to a house just as you left it. I am always happy to schedule a meet & greet prior to booking. Thanks for your time, interest and trust. I look forward to hearing from you!
Ratings and reviews
Sarah is the best. If you’re looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter for you dog, this is your girl!

Sarah was so helpful and amazing with my pup Billy! She responded to my super last minute house sitting request and was super friendly, professional, and gave Billy a great day with lots of outings! Will definitely be hiring Sarah again!

Sarah is Kona’s favorite walker! Thank you for always be so accommodating and taking care of our girl.

Sarah is the best dog walker ever ! She not only made my dog feel loved but made me feel so comfortable leaving my pup in her hands. She kept me updated and made sure Elsa had such a good birthday when I couldn’t be there ! We will definitely call her again :)

Sarah was great with my dog Brooklyn when I was away. She kept me constantly informed about her visits, sent lots of photos and videos, and took Brooklyn on very long walks on the beach. I will definitely be using Sarah again!

Thank you for always being so great with Kona!
