Experienced animal lover & rescuer

Pet care experience

When you book me, you're getting peace of mind. I will provide reliable, top-tier care. I love animals and will treat your pet like the beloved family member I know it is to you. I've had dogs and cats my entire life, and currently have two spoiled cats I adore. I've been involved in animal rescue for over a decade and have rescued cats, fostered dogs, and performed home visits. I'm experienced with pets of all ages and know how to care for special needs pets, including experience in administering oral medications (pills and liquid syringe), injection medications, eye drops, and even changing pet diapers. I will care for your pets as directed in your home. I provide in-home visits on behalf of animal rescue organizations, so I know how to create a safe home and playing environment for your pets. PLEASE NOTE: There will be an extra charge for requests outside of my service radius as these require extra time.

Sarah was excellent with my pup Millie! Millie is currently recovering from surgery, and Sarah was so kind, supportive, and attentive to her needs. We picked Sarah because of her extensive experience with dogs, and I’m so glad we did. I would highly recommend her!

Sarah is a true animal lover who was so very kind to my senior dog. She is also very reliable and responsive. I hope I’m fortunate enough to book her for additional visits in the future.
