Dog mama & lover of all animals!
Pet care experience
I grew up with all kinds of animals. Dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats.. and I still live on a farm with all of them! My baby is my pitbull Luna. I treat her and all of the animals like they are my children. I'm very picky about who I let watch my babies so I can promise you I will take the best care of yours. I give lots of love and cuddles, treats (under your permission) and spend quality time.
Reviews
Sarah is the best! She’s the only one I want staying with my boys!
Sarah was great and Peggy had such a good time with her and her dogs. Would definitely trust her with my dog any time we need someone!
Sarah was fantastic. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our dogs were well taken care of. We will definitely hire her gain. Thanks Sarah!!!
Sarah is great! She is ALWAYS our first call when we need a dog sitter for our boys!! She is trust worthy and reliable!! We will absolutely be calling her again🤗

Since I have multiple animals at my house I can only accept pets for boarding upon evaluation, but I can house sit for you or do drop in visits where I will spend some quality time with them for awhile each time and send you lots of photos!
Home
Information Sarah W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. I love and have large dogs at home but I am a smaller woman so I can handle dogs over 40lbs but to an extent. If they are too strong for me or are jumpers that are too powerful for me then it might not make a good fit. I can bring a front clip harness if needed for strong leash pullers but a meet & greet beforehand will give me a better assessment on compatibility.
A typical day
I love to take the dogs to parks with nice walking pathways or pretty trails, or even just throughout the neighborhood. I make sure they get enough stimulation by letting them stop and sniff and keeping the walk as long or as short as they need. I will play tug or fetch with them and even bring over some mental stimulating games for them to play with for a few supervised minutes. 15 minutes of a mental stimulating game or toy can be just as tiring as a 30 minute walk!

Availability
I currently work from home part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available for dog walking, drop in visits or house sitting any day of the week. I do have to go home and care for my own animals a couple times during the day but when I’m sitting I won’t leave your pets alone for longer than 3-4 hours at a time.
