Availability

I have a flexible summer schedule with only occasional classes, so I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I always do my best to accommodate each dog’s needs and their owner’s schedule. Pet care is already part of my daily routine, including walks, outdoor time, and lots of attention.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for dogs in my home, they have access to a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time, as well as companionship from my two friendly dogs. I also have a nearby hiking trail, which is perfect for walks and added exercise. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs and have spent years fostering and caring for rescues, which means I’m very comfortable with all kinds of personalities—from shy and anxious dogs to high-energy pups. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering oral medication, and I’m confident helping dogs adjust to new environments at their own pace. I’ve also worked on leash training to make walks more enjoyable and stress-free. I truly love getting to know each dog’s little quirks and routines. My goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away.

Here are a few review variations including Annabelle, Rio, and Hope: Review 1: “Sara has been an incredible dog walker for our three pups — Rio, Hope, and Annabelle. They absolutely love her and are always so happy after their walks. Sara is reliable, attentive, and truly cares about their well-being. It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in great hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who treats their pets like family!” Review 2: “We can’t say enough good things about Sara! She’s been walking our dogs — Rio, Hope, and Annabelle — and they just adore her. Sara is dependable, kind, and always goes the extra mile to make sure they get the attention and exercise they need. It’s clear she loves what she does, and we’re so grateful to have her.” Review 3: Sophia is the best! Rio, Hope, and Annabelle are so excited every time she comes by. She’s not only a fantastic dog walker but also so loving and caring with our dogs. She’s reliable, communicative, and treats them as if they were her own. We highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.
