Safety, trust & environment

I always ensure that all water bowls are filled, litter is scooped, and animals are accounted for. I am patient with shy pets and will not attempt to engage with them unless told it is okay. This is their world, I’m just working in it!

Information Sarah W. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet take any medication? Does your pet have any triggers/fears? Is your dog leash trained? Does your pet have any allergies? Is your pet an escape artist?

A typical day

I love playing tug of war and fetch! I always take dogs out a few times during drop ins, since some dogs are unable to communicate when they need out. Better safe than sorry!

Pet care experience

Thank you for considering me! My goal as your pet sitter/walker is to put your mind at ease. I have had cats and dogs for years, so I know how hard it is to trust that your animals are in good hands. I am eager to show you that with my dedication and love for animals, your pets will be treated like family! In my free time, you can find me volunteering at Bailey’s Cat Haven, crocheting, or writing music. I am always open to caring for animals outside of cats and dogs. I have cared for fish, hamsters and chickens in the past. Whatever pets you have, bring it on! My mind is open and my heart is ready! I look forward to hearing from you! I am always open to any questions you may have :) ** My puppy rate is only applicable if your dog (of any age) is not potty trained well or tends to be destructive. (Lots of cleaning involved!) OR if you would like training during walks. If your dog is under one year and fully house trained, I will not apply the up-charge. Thank you for understanding!

Sarah was fantastic! She was very responsive, kept us updated throughout our trip, and made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dog and cat in her care overnight. We knew they were in great hands, and we'll definitely be booking with her again!
