Pet care experience

WFH professional, dog lover

Originally from NH, I am an active, outgoing, responsible dog lover! I have volunteered as a dog walker for a local shelter for 2 years, I dog and house sat with Trusted housesitters for 2 years, I grew up with dogs, and I am the go to dog sitter for friends and coworkers! I have experience with senior special needs pups, and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I work full-time in digital marketing so I am WFH with some great flexibility. Currently I am working remotely here in southern Maine; I am available for walks before work, lunchtime walks, and anytime after 4pm!

Safety, trust & environment

I will take your lead (pun intended) on how to best care for your pet! I love to play & exercise them but want to respect your training and routines. I will ask for preferences and details of your pets nature and ability before a sit/walk/visit.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 13, 2026

Saralyn was very loving and attentive to my Shih Tzu for two weeks while I was at work. She is communicative, flexible and thought of good ideas when my dog wasn’t drinking enough water. Thank you Saralyn! We highly recommend and appreciate you! 🫶🏽

House Sitting • Nov 30, 2020

Saralyn did a great job with our guys on very short notice. They had a great time and were in a great mood when we got back. She kept us updated regularly and treated our pups like her own. I would highly recommend her!!!

Saralyn has all the qualities of a great Rover employee. She truly loves all dogs and shows them great affection. She is timely, reliable, responsible and is so loving to our pets. She is exactly the kind of person I want when to be with our dogs when we cannot.

Since I met Saralyn over four years ago, I have always known her to be a kind, warm-hearted, patient friend whose love for animals great and small knows no bounds. From needing to greet every dog she comes across to expertly and responsibly caring for my own senior pup on a few occasions (including taking care of his medication), I know she would make an amazing caretaker for any dog - and every dog would be lucky to have her! I wholeheartedly recommend her as a sitter :)

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I currently WFH M-F! Can do early walks, lunchtime strolls, afterwork walks as well. Happy to take your pet on weekend adventures if that is their speed as well. I have a car to get to you but I love walking around (with or without a dog)!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Saralyn can host up to 1 drop-in per day
Let me know your dogs preferences & nature before a walk & I will make sure to respect their boundaries! Some dogs don't love new people & I understand that- happy to go slow and introduce myself on terms their comfortable with!
