Loving your pets safe in your home
Pet care experience
I have always loved animals. I've been rescuing, fostering, and adopting out stray and abandoned cats and dogs, since I was 12. Providing sitting and dog walking services felt like a natural evolution of caring for animals, allowing me to continue to rescue orphaned, abandoned, or stray pets. I offer all medicinal applications *short* of intravenous. So, if your pet needs oral medications, insulin injections, or subcutaneous fluids, I am quite capable. I can bottle feed infant animals and syringe or spoon feed the sickly, if needed. Does your pet need a taxi to a veterinary or grooming appointment? I'm their driver. My greatest joys are when one of my canine charges wriggles in delight that Sarah "the fun lady" has come to play; or, when a normally diffident feline puts her paw on me, claiming me as one of her friends (Lulu, pictured above, kindly illustrating that 😺). I prefer a household with more than one pet. I am especially seeking feline households. But, a balanced household, with at least one dog and one cat is a plus. Please note, any dog needing a walk must be polite on the leash. Any dog over 30 pounds must be calm and gentle - no jumping or taking my knees out from under me.
Reviews
Sarah is amazing with animals! All my pets adore her. When I leave, I know they will receive the BEST care possible with her! I have pets that require medication, which she handled professionally!

Safety, trust & environment
I offer my sitting and dog-walking service only at the client's home. Pets are safer and happier in their own environment. The time I'm with them is *their* time. I will offer your pet (s) as much attention as they ask for, while I am visiting with them.
Information Sarah T. would like to know about your pet
I do require a meet-and-greet in your home, to ensure that your pet(s) will like me. At that time, we can discuss any special requirements your pet(s) have for a successful visit with me.
A typical day
I like my charges to tell me what they want and need during my visits with them. If they need to run around like crazy to let off steam, that's what we do. If they just want to snuggle, after taking care of business, that's what we do.

Availability
I own my own business, working for myself. Pet sitting, organizing, errands and more are what I do. As such, my schedule is fairly flexible.
