Availability
I have a flexible schedule (self-employed) that allows for travel within a certain radius, drop-ins, and overnight stays. Please note that I do not provide constant care (24/7) at my overnight rate. If you would like a sitter to be home 90% of the time, I can generally do that, but my rate will be higher. Right now, house sitting base rates include a dinner/evening walk, staying overnight, and breakfast/morning walk. For multiple days, we can work out some time mid-day, too.

About Sarah Y.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
As you can see, I'm very active - your pets will never lack for long walks, playtimes, or lots of exercise! I stick to your routines and directions, with a few treats here and there if allowed. I treat all my clients as if they were my own. Please also note that I cannot take very large dogs unless they're well trained. Its for their safety as well as mine. Thanks for understanding!
Information Sarah Y. would like to know about your pet
I have a thorough list of questions for Meet n Greets! Most importantly, I want to know what YOUR routine is with your pets, so that we can minimize disruption and help them feel safe with a new person in their space.
A typical day
I love a game of fetch (space permitted), and have the patience to make a toy mouse seem like a real one. I'm happy to play till they're tired out and am dedicated to figuring out what they like.

Pet care experience
Hi! I'm an actor in NYC, but am originally from small-town Ohio. My father is a veterinarian, so I grew up with a household full of furry friends and part of my daily chores was taking care of them. My first job was in the clinic's boarding facility, where I walked dogs all day, every day, during the summers. I'm patient with shy friends and committed to letting them warm up to me at their own pace. I also am a firm believer in good behavior and try to ensure that any leash, mealtime, jumping, or house rules are followed. I am able to give oral meds and subcutaneous injections. I have a flexible schedule with both daytime and evening availability. I've also had multiple background checks through my my temp agency and Global Entry program. I have worked with major companies as an Exec. Asst. in their C-suites. I'm communicative, responsible, and will treat your loved ones as if they were my own. I have a higher rate due to the quality of care I provide, and am proud to be able to offer my clients an excellent, anxiety-free experience.

Reviews
Sarah Y. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.

Sarah was amazing! We had her do a house stay to watch our cat while out of town and she was very communicative/sent great pictures! Our cat also warmed up to her really quickly which is uncommon for her as she is pretty shy but she was cuddling with Sarah on the first day. Sarah was a pleasure to have and gave us peace of mind that our cat was taken care of and not lonely while we were away. We would definitely book Sarah again!

Sarah did a great job on short notice taking care of my cat. I cannot thank her enough and highly recommend!


Sarah is an amazing caregiver who met and exceeded both of our cats’ unique needs. We would love to have her watch our babies again. Thank you!!
