Your pet's joy + safety FURREVER #1

Pet care experience

My partner recently said, "Maybe you love Jack (my dog) TOO much." I quickly disagreed because there's no amount of love that could be too much for Jack, or any furry friend for that matter. I'm the friend that sits down for a serious chat with anyone considering a new furbaby because animal love and care should not be taken lightly. I personally spent a PRETTY penny saving Jack-boys life this year, spend months giving him an extensive med schedule and carrying him up and down stairs to potty. Why? Because he deserved whatever it took to give him and happy and healthy life. I've never been able to separate myself from an animal's sense of safety and joy and I'll do whatever it takes to give that to your pet (child) too.

Sarah is such a sweet lady and animal lover! Has watched all my critters so many times and treats them as her own with the most excellent care. Can’t recommend her enough and she will always be the first person I call

Sarah is so great with my baby! She’s happy as a clam when I get home…honestly I think Ella likes Sarah more than me at this point. She’s always on time and never skimps on the walk time. 10/10 would recommend.

Sarah is the kindest person I know. I have a 14 year old dog with arthritis and who is going blind, she is so gentle and set to him. He typically doesn't like people other than me, but with her, he feels so safe and loved. I would trust her any day with his care. 5 stars all around!!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm currently living in a Studio with a nice yard. It's not fit for larger breeds unless they are mellow. But for smaller breeds that get along well with other dogs, I'm happy to pet sit! If I'm sitting at yours my partner is happy to take my pup unless you'd be happy with him having a friend along. If I'm sitting we will agree upon their usual care, because I don't want to disrupt their schedule. My work schedule flexes so I'll be up front on whether their care schedule will work for me at the time. But typically I can be very flexible and make it work.

Information Sarah U. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know if they have any special needs out of the ordinary potty breaks, zoomy play time and feeding schedule/information. I've cared for my pup during a difficult illness this year and am patient, so just ask and I'll let you know if there's any issue with care. If they have any quirks or special play requests I'm all for it!

A typical day

Who doesn't love playtime? I'm down for hikes, fetch, cuddles, running in circles with them looking like the crazy lady or whatever else the babes are into. Cats and I have a good understanding and have a blast at playtime too. You tell me what their favorite activities are and we will do it!

I'm a local photographer (hey, I do pet sessions too!) and have a very flexible schedule and lots of downtime in the off-season at the moment. My schedule can be flexible around yours with enough notice, but I'm open to last minute bookings. Just ask!
