Animals are my passion!

Pet care experience

Thank you for considering me! Before I talk about myself, I’d like to explain my rates. My puppy rate is only applicable if your dog (of any age) is not potty trained well or tends to be destructive. If your dog is under one year but fully trained, I will not apply the up-charge. Thank you for understanding! My goal as your pet sitter/walker is to put your mind at ease. I myself have 2 cats and a dog, 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! My experience at TLC Pet Resort, The Humane Society, and The Dog Stop have given me the oppurtunities to get to know all types of breeds and personalities of dogs, while also learning more about caring for them. For years, I volunteered at Venango Area Riding for the Handicapped Association (VARHA). I learned a lot about horses and how to groom, tack, and feed them. I spent one week at the Busch Gardens Zoo in Tampa, Florida studying and assisting in the care of reptiles and amphibians. I have also cared for cats, hamsters, chickens, and fish. I am more than willing to care for any other animals you may have. My mind is open and my heart is ready! I am always open to any questions you may have!

Sarah is by far my first choice when I need a pet sitter. I have used her services on several occasions. During that time, she stayed in communication with me, sent photos, kept my pet areas clean at home, and eliminated the stress of being away without my pet. Above all, Sarah is trustworthy and my pets love her. I would be happy to provide personal references upon request!

Great experience with Sarah. She was friendly and sent updates during our time away. She took great care of my home and more importantly my dog!! Would definitely recommend and use again.

Safety, trust & environment

I always ensure that all water bowls are filled, litter is scooped, and the 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 allowed on furniture?

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!
