What a blessing! Coming home after a trip to find your beloved dogs so well cared for and their bowls spotless. I highly recommend Sarah for dog sitting. Thank you, Sarah, for taking such good care of my dogs. I'll definitely be leaving them with you again on my next trip.

If anyone is looking for a caring, trustworthy pet sitter, I highly recommend Sarah. She is very reliable and will treat your fur baby with all the love and care they deserve.

“I’ve had the pleasure of seeing Sarah care for her dogs, and it’s clear that being a responsible, loving pet parent comes naturally to her. Her dogs are always well-groomed, happy, and full of energy. In my opinion, it’s a reflection of the care and attention they receive.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I currently work a flexible full time work from home job as a project manager. This allows me to utilize my flexible schedule to help out furry friends.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I can do drop in visits as well as walks. I enjoy being outdoors, so playtime is a favorite activity. Please let me know if your pet has any special care needs as I am comfortable with medications.

Pets

A typical day

When I'm caring for pets, I treat them like family—because they are. I tailor activities to each pet’s personality, energy level, and comfort zone. For playful pups, that might mean neighborhood walks with plenty of sniff breaks, or tug-of-war in the yard. For cuddle bugs, it’s cozy couch time, gentle brushing, and lots of belly rubs. If your pet loves structure, I can reinforce basic commands with positive reinforcement and keep their routine consistent. For cats, I offer interactive play with feather wands, laser pointers, or just quiet companionship while they perch and observe. I also keep a close eye on hydration, safety, and emotional well-being—whether that means adjusting the thermostat, playing calming music, or just being a reassuring presence. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and entertained while they are in my care.

Before I care for your pet, I’d love to know a few key things to make sure they feel safe, happy, and understood: - Routine & Preferences: What does a typical day look like for your pet? Do they have favorite toys, walking routes, or nap spots? - Medical Needs: Any medications, allergies, or health conditions I should be aware of? I’m comfortable administering meds and keeping a close eye on symptoms. - Behavioral Notes: Are they shy around strangers, reactive on leash, or sensitive to loud noises? I’ll adjust my approach to match their comfort level. - Feeding Details: What’s their meal schedule, portion size, and any dietary restrictions? - Commands & Training Style: Do they respond to specific cues or hand signals? I’ll reinforce your training style to keep things consistent.
