Very Experienced, Love All Animals!

Pet care experience

Greetings! I have had pets my entire life that range from salamanders to german shepherds and even have experience caring for livestock. I have one, small dog a cavapoo named Sebastian, who is 7 years old and about 11lbs. I love animals of all kind and will treat them just like my own (and Sebastian is dearly loved and spoiled). I can provide walks that can include a jog or run depending on what your dog needs--I'm a marathoner so I can include your pup on runs up to 20 miles, if needed. I know that some pet parents are picky about where they want their dog to walk so if you would prefer your neighborhood verses a dog park, that is fine with me. Just let me know any and everything you prefer so that I can best assist you and your pup. For doggy day care: drop off is between 6:00-8:00am and pick up is between 4:00-6:00pm. I approve of drop off and pickup times outside of this range on a case by case basis. This helps to ensure calmer dogs and to limit the amount of foot traffic in the apartment at the same time. Everyone that requests doggy day care and/or boarding at my place will need to show proof of their dogs being up to date on the following vaccines: DHPP, bordetella and rabies. This. is for the health and safety of my dog as well as yours. Meet and greets are required for every type of request--there are absolutely no exceptions! This is for my safety and the comfort of your fur-baby as I want to make sure I am a good fit for your pup(s). If you have any other questions, please let me know. Thank you!

We loved having Sarah watch our pups - and our house - while we were gone. One of our dogs is new to our family as a recent rescue, so keeping our dogs together at home in a familiar and comfortable environment was highly preferable- and Sarah really made it easy for us to know they were happily taken care of and on their regular schedule. She gave us regular reports and lots of pics (where they both looked relaxed and happy). We’re grateful for all the attention, reliability, and kindness she provided!

Sarah was super responsive and did a great job watching our dog. Our plans changed a bit and she was very flexible and accommodating. We would definitely have her watch our dog in the future and would recommend to anyone.

Safety, trust & environment

If your pet will be staying at my house, I only take pets that are fully vaccinated--please show me their vaccination records prior. One of my dogs contracted Parvo from a customer about 10 years ago due to the pup not being vaccinated. I do this for the safety of my dog as well as yours, especially since I live in an apartment and do not want your dog to get sick from any dog they may come across while at my place. (vaccines: DHPP-distemper, hepatitis, parvovirus, parainfluenza and also distemper and rabies.) I am excellent at paying attention to details and will follow any instructions you give me regarding your precious furbaby. If I have any questions regarding their care I will ask you before your travels or during (if absolutely necessary). I am great about taking pictures and videos of your fur baby too, if that is something you would like as well.

Information Sarah Y. would like to know about your pet

If your dog has any medical issues that will need monitoring, are they up to date on all of their shots, and if they have any behavioral issues such as aggression or separation anxiety. (I can still watch them with this, I just want to make sure I am informed though.) I do not have any breed preferences.

A typical day

Walks, runs, fetch, or tug of war; just depends on the dog's activity level and what type of things they enjoy doing. I am also great at giving cuddles if your dog prefers more quality, chill time instead. Please let me know if you do not want your dog to visit dog parks, hiking trails, or be transported in a car.

I work from home during the weekdays and if I am house sitting, I can simply work off my lap top while there if your pup(s) need more company during the day. During the weekend, I have open availability to play and exercise your pets! I am a marathoner, so if your pets need long runs I can do that for them too. Some months I have Air Force Reserve weekend and will not be available but I have my calendar updated frequently to project any time I will not be available in the future; otherwise just ask.
