Pet care experience
I have been rescuing and caring for animals since I was a child, then started volunteering and working in animal rescue so I can be around animals everyday and do what I love! For the past 5 years I have been doing behavioral work and training, including training service dog tasks. I'm constantly aware and conscious of a dog or cats mental state and listening to them, ensuring they feel calm and can have fun! I only use positive reinforcement and incorporate that mentality into everything I do with your pet- whether on a walk or play time. I have a lot of experience caring for special needs animals and seniors, including giving meds of all kinds.
Reviews
Saralynn works with our hyperactive, sweet but sometimes stubborn American Bulldog in a way that makes her walks pleasant for all.
Saralyn is a lifesaver. One of our guests for Thanksgiving, whom we definitely wanted to attend our party, couldn’t be around dogs. Saralyn was kind enough to open her heart and home to care for our pooch for the holiday and evening. Our big boy came home happy and tired, which matched our mood at the end of a long day prepping and partying, with our extended family. We will definitely be using Saralyn again for her gentle way with our boy. Thanks!
Saralyn has a love and passion for animals like no other. She is dedicated to taking care of the animals she works with and gets great results training them. Saralyn is a responsible and compassionate person who puts her focus solely on the care of the animals she’s watching or training. I would highly recommend Saralyn as a caregiver, she will give your pets the best care. 10/10
Saralyn has been a game changer in my dog’s life. She is very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs’ behaviors and how to encourage good behavior and help train negative. Saralyn was very communicative about my dogs stay with her. Gave great pictures with short updates that made me feel comfortable and secure. I knew my dog was safe and loved during their time together.
About Saralyn T.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I like to follow a pets home routine so they feel comfortable, and I incorporate that with my 'safety' rules- like no rushing out doors, so your pet knows what to expect. I have separate, quiet areas and common areas in my home so that they can be cozy in their own bed and social if they'd like to cuddle on the couch or play. I have a large very friendly and well socialized dog who loves to play with dogs of all sizes and she adores kittens!

Information Saralyn T. would like to know about your pet
- Their routine -Walking gear like harness, collar, and what side they prefer -Allergies -Any aggression or reactivity to animals, people, noises, etc -Commands -Their favorite activity -Any other details that will allow them to have a fun and relaxing time with me
A typical day
Fun activities generally include a long walk or hike daily, treat toys, and playtimes throughout the day depending on energy level. I love doing nose work games with dogs and also teaching them to play hiding seek. Close to my house is a beautiful park with a walking track and path, and my neighborhood is very safe to walk in with sidewalks and friendly neighbors. I try to relax outside during sunset each night so the dogs can play and enjoy the cooler air.
