Pet care experience

I’ve been a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I have two cats of my own, and over the years I’ve cared for several dogs, so I truly understand the unique personalities and energy each pet brings.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my pup Harry!! He always came home happy and tired! I had no worries when he was with her. I used her several times over and would absolutely continue if we were still in the area.

Hi, I’m happy to recommend Sarah for a dog sitting position. I’ve known Sarah since we were kids. Both of us had dogs growing up. I have always been impressed by how naturally Sarah connects with dogs. Sarah is kind, responsible, and attentive to the needs of the people and animals around her. Sarah will be consistent with feeding routines, going on walks, or just spending quality time keeping them company. She will provide updates and will understand the concerns of a dog's owner. Sarah is reliable and conscientious about communicating. She takes great delight in taking photos of Brody when we visit and always asks about his health and relationship with our new cat. Brody loves to go on walks with Sarah. I’d feel completely comfortable leaving Brody in her care. He is a bit of a baby and I know Sarah would cater to his needs with patience and gentle care. Sincerely, Kathy S
