Highlights
Pet care experience
Caring for pets like my own!
I bring hands-on experience caring for both puppies and senior pets, including those with special needs. While I don’t have formal certifications, my minor in psychology helps me understand animal behavior, which I’ve enjoyed applying by training dogs to do tricks. I’m especially patient with anxious pets and pride myself on being flexible and reliable — I work from home, so I can adapt to your schedule and emergencies with ease. I’m happy to administer medication with clear instructions to keep your pet comfortable and safe. As someone new to Austin, I’m eager to build connections and offer trustworthy care, always ready to show up and give your pet the attention and love they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment
When I’m caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to stick to their usual routines and follow any special instructions from their owners. I spend time playing, feeding, and taking bathroom breaks, all while making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable in their familiar space. I also keep things tidy and secure so you can relax knowing everything’s taken care of while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Sarah made sure our cats were well cared for during our trip away!
Sarah is awesome! She takes great care of our fur babies and our home! We love having her watch our boys!
Sarah was so great with Kramer and Dexter! She walked them every day, cuddled with them, and catered to their needs perfectly. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Sarah watched our 2 pups for 5 days and was wonderful! She is respectful of our home and property and adapted well to our dogs. Will definitely use her again!
Sarah is a great dog sitter! We have a very energetic 1year old pup and a 9 year old pup as well. She handles both of them very well. Will definitely use Sarah again!
She is wonderful! We had a last minute weekend trip and she was very communicative and our boys love her!

Schedule
Pet care fits smoothly into my daily routine since I work from home with a flexible schedule. I’m available for walks, play, and check-ins during mid-day lunch breaks (11:30 am–1 pm), early mornings before 9 am, and after work around 5–5:30 pm. This flexibility lets me adapt to any extra attention your pet may need or sudden changes in the schedule, ensuring they get consistent, loving care throughout the day.

- To make sure I give the best care, it really helps to know your pet’s routines, favorite activities, any health issues or medications, and anything that might make them nervous or uncomfortable. Also, details about their feeding schedule and any special instructions are great to have ahead of time!
