Pet care experience
Attentive, work-from-home care :)
🌷 Experienced, Nurturing Pet Care Hi! I’m Sascha- an experienced caregiver with years of hands-on experience fostering dogs and cats, as well as caring for small animals. I’ve looked after pets with a wide range of personalities and needs, as well as trained and socialized puppies and dogs to prepare them for adoption. I’m very comfortable giving medications and providing care for senior pets or those who need a little extra attention. 🌿 A Calm, Adult-Only Environment Your pet will be cared for in a comfortable home environment with plenty of patience, attention, and companionship. We have a senior dog, Mira, who is gentle, low-energy, and spoiled in the best way. She is used to having other animals around and helps make our home a relaxed place for our furry guests. We offer slow-paced intros through a baby gate to make sure everyone feels safe, comfortable, and has enough time to adjust to each other's presence. I welcome: - Puppies and adult dogs - Senior dogs - Shy or anxious dogs who need a little more time to adjust - Cats and small animals 💕 Personalized Care I understand that all pets have different routines, personalities, and needs, and I do my best to make their time away from home as easy and stress-free as possible. You can expect: - One client at a time, focused, engaging care 🐾 - Lots of updates in your inbox 💌 - Care tailored to your pet’s individual needs 🐶 - Portraits of your gorgeous babies (see my gallery!) 📸 ✨ I look forward to getting to know your four-legged family members! Virtual and in-person meet & greets are available to help everyone feel confident and secure before their stay.

Ratings and reviews
Absolutely amazing care for our Nova. Thank you for going above and beyond and providing our girl a quiet peaceful time away from home. All the communication and pictures were very sweet and helped reassure us that you had it all covered. She’s not an easy pup to care for with her PTSD and Sascha made it seem like the best time.
Sascha is amazing! Wiley always has a great time staying with Sascha and is excited to come back each time we drop him off! Communication with Sascha is great and she always sends a few great photos of Wiley during his stay. Happy to recommend Sascha to others!
Fantastic to be able to leave your fur baby with very nice people in a real home. Sascha was so kind and obviously knows a great deal about dogs. I needed boarding for just one night and Sascha was so accommodating. Thank you!
Sascha was the most incredible caregiver for my animals. She watched my dog and my two cats for the weekend and I was extremely happy. Seeing pictures of my babies while I was away always made me smile. She is very attentive and caring. She was organized and communication was fantastic. All my animals came home happy and healthy. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. In fact I already have her booked for next week! Thank you so much Sascha for a pet sitting experience that absolutely made me feel guilt free about being away.
I’ve seen firsthand the love Sascha has shown her foster pets over the years. She trains them, advocates for them, and always has their best interests at heart. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
If you are looking for a pet sitter who truly understands animal behavior and needs, Sascha is the person! We have two dogs that she lovingly fostered before we adopted them, and she has looked after our pups while we have been out of town. Her background in fostering means she is prepared for any situation and understands the importance of keeping routines consistent. Sascha is punctual, highly communicative (with pictures), and gives our dogs the exact level of care and affection they need. 10/10 recommendation!"

Schedule
I work from home and my shifts typically start in the early morning and run until early afternoon. I can take a break every 2 hours to meet your pet's needs, and they're welcome to hang out as I work or even snooze in my lap.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced yard, a gentle senior dog for companionship, and I am happy to follow owner guidance in terms of crate training, walks, sleeping arrangements, etc. Safety and comfort are the number one priority. Although my dog is very gentle and accommodating, reactive dogs or those with very rough play-styles would not be the best fit for us at this time.
Pets
A typical day
Playing with toys, taking long walks, visiting the park, chilling in the backyard, and lounging on the sofa are all part of our regular routine.
