Safety, trust & environment

I believe in providing the pets in my care with an energy that is firm but loving, and also consistent. I believe in establishing and maintaining trust with your pets so that they feel comfortable and at ease in my care. I am trustworthy and dependable and I believe that energy is easily apparent to both owners and pets alike!

Information Sarah W. would like to know about your pet

I think when getting to know your pet, it will be important to know their routine, their favorite activities, their challenges (be they fears or anxieties) and also how you show them affection so that I may implement that style with your pet in order to provide comfort and consistency while you are away from them.

A typical day

I believe that exercise is one very important part of the pet care trifecta, coupled with discipline and love. We get the best from our pets when their needs are met, so for each visit with your pet, I will aim to provide physical interaction, be that with a walk or a game of fetch or some other activity that helps your pet to release their energy in a positive way! I believe all dogs needs a firm but loving hand, so I will give plenty of affection for good behavior while I am with your pet!

Sarah has been our pet sitter for the last few years. She is super dependable and caring for my two rescue tuxedo cats. They always look forward to her visits. She even knows one cat’s favorite hiding places :)). Highly recommend.

It gives me great comfort that I can count on Sarah to make sure my feral outside cat friend has food and water two times each day! She is awesome!

Thank you for everything you do Sarah, all the little extra things are so appreciated. I am able to relax and enjoy my time off knowing my baby is in good loving hands.

Sarah again took care of my son's cat for a weekend away. Excellent care (with much-appreciated visit reports and pictures)! New this time, Sarah hid a few treats daily for Ari the cat to find, which Ari seemed to enjoy hunting down. Highly recommend Sarah's attentive care!
