Animal lover & MSW/MPH student

Pet care experience

I love animals and grew up with dogs in the home, so I feel very comfortable with them! I also have a cat of my own currently whom I love very much.

Sarah did a great job taking care of my dog, and my pet seemed very comfortable during her stay. Sarah sent daily updates and was flexible with my scheduling needs. Would definitely use her services again.

Sarah is very reliable and good with our cat. She sends great pictures. She also fed lizards and fish. She picked up extra food for our cat because we ran out. Very much appreciated!!! We highly recommend Sarah.

Information Sarah V. would like to know about your pet

How comfortable the dog is around other pets & people (are they reactive, would they be comfortable walking around new areas or do they have a particular route they prefer, do they not like to be around other pets, etc), if there are any usual routines for the dog (meal times, potty break times, play times, etc), medications or treatments the dog needs (if they need any at all), and what makes the dog happiest (being independent & doing their own thing, having lots of attention and cuddles, playing with certain toys, having a quiet and calm environment, etc)

A typical day

As long as the owner/pet is comfortable with it and there are no restrictions, I usually like to walk around the neighborhood, allow the dogs to sniff around, play with any of their favorite toys, give them ample pets and belly rubs, and just hang out in a comfy spot together!

I am currently in graduate school but do not have any classes throughout the summer. I have a few out-of-town trips throughout the summer, though, that I have already marked off on my calendar! Outside of that, I have a remote/virtual part-time job with pretty flexible hours.
