Highlights
Pet care experience
Life-long pet owner and caretaker
Hi! I’m Sarah, a Vermont native, University of Vermont graduate and full-time dog mom to two 95 pound labradors, Lincoln & Fudge. Growing up I had cats, a rabbit and a dog; and my extended family had dogs as well, so having 3 big dogs in our house was normal. I love dogs and cats, although I am mildly allergic to cats (that's why I can't take cats to my home to watch). I promise if you allow me to care for your pet I'll do the best job I possibly can. Thank you for your time, I hope to hear from you soon! *all photos are of my own pets, I would never post your babies without your consent*

Ratings and reviews
Sarah took great care of our dog Enzo while we were gone for two nights. She sent us updates and pictures, was a great communicator and even came for a visit prior to our trip to meet Enzo and hear about his quirks. We would definitely consider booking with her again!
For the most part Sarah was responsive when it came to setting up the sit with my dogs and showing up on time. But there was a lack of communication regarding the end of the sit. And when I took my dogs out after she had left they clearly had not been taken out that day given how much they needed to poop and pee. Disappointing. My other beef, which isn’t really about Sarah is that I feel as if I was gouged by Rover. The additional fees tacked onto this sit were outrageous. I have never paid so much to have my dogs taken care of. I paid $215 for 2 dogs for 30 hours of sitting including one overnight. I could be wrong here, but I will not be using Rover again.
Azul was well taken care of for his first night at home without us there thanks to Sarah's touch.
Sarah was great. She arrived on time, took my pup for a nice walk and played in the park with him. Will be booking with her again.
Sarah was great! Based on all the wonderful photos it looked like our dog was living her best life- playing swimming and relaxing! Thanks Sarah for your thoughtful care!
Sarah took great care of our sweet and sensitive kitty. He warmed right up to her and we loved receiving videos of him purring away while we were gone. We felt assured that he was in good hands.

Schedule
Just moved back to Vermont, and I’m available full time. I take my own dogs out quite frequently and would do the same for yours.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I love to care for animals big or small, fluffy or furry. I can provide multiple walks or even trips to the dog park if your dog is used to going. I love giving pets and love and can’t wait to take care of your baby. I can also of course take care of plants/mail/light cleaning if you’d like.
Pets
A typical day
I love to take dogs on long walks at the park or to the beach. My son especially loves the water (he’s a lab) and so we try to visit the beach or go hiking as much as possible.

- For the most part they’re easy-going dogs. Will play at the park but are also happy to lay on the sofa with you. They’re strong and might pull a little on walks but nothing a stern “no” can’t fix. Lincoln’s a little psychotic and hates birds, planes and most things with wheels (he will bark and lunge, that’s your warning) so just be careful on walks or if he’s off leash. But overall he’s a baby and just wants love. Fudge is just happy to be included.
