“Sara is amazing to work with! When my dad’s standard poodle was moving in to live with him at an assisted living facility, we needed someone we could trust with a sometimes stubborn pup! It didn’t take Viola long to warm up to Sara! Sara’s updates are great and informative. We look forward to having Sara care for our pups when we leave town for vacation. Thanks so much, Sara!”

About: Hello! I have been around pets my entire life. Having a Siberian husky as my childhood companion, until his recent passing, has made me grow a bond for animal care and taught me many insightful tips. I have learned how to care for animals by dog sitting friends, colleagues, and neighbors pets and continue to grow my interest in cat sitting through feline-loving friends of mine! Whether it’s a playful pup or a serene feline, each furry friend holds a special place in my heart, and I enjoy every opportunity I get to provide them with love and care! I am a recent graduate from Quinnipiac University. My weekends are very flexible, working from 6am-2pm Monday through Friday. I try to be as flexible as possible with my schedule! Please let me know if you have any questions! I will make sure that your furry friend(s) are taken care of with safety as the number one priority! My goal is to make sure they can continue their day to day routines, while staying alert and aware of any unusual activities that could occur. Above all, I will invest time and patience into nurturing a bond and mutual respect with your companion(s)!
About: I have been taking care of dogs my whole life. I have pet sat for many friends over the years and have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. I am self employed and have a very open schedule. I love the outdoors and I don’t mind the cold. The more walkies the better! I have a large yard and lots of open space and spots for cozy naps at home. My yard is not fenced in but I keep dogs leashed on walks.
About: As someone who has taken care of animals for almost two decades, I've seen it all. From aggressive pets, to escapists, to pets with serious health problems. But even with those hardships I've managed to get through for those dogs and their owners. I've met some very amazing animals throughout my years, and everytime they can't get enough of me, I'm basically the Pet Whisper. And I'm always able to complete the checklist, feed, walk, take them to their appointments, and so on. My clients have been able to trust me, I'm a hard worker who doesn't give up, who goes above and beyond to make my clients proud and their pets happy. I'm currently employed as a Sales Associate at Ocean State. My hours vary quite a bit, but normally I work up to 3 weekdays and both weekends, sometimes only one of them. My hours can be from 7-1 to 11 or 1-7:30 Currently I have a dog and cat. My cat stays in my room while my dog is allowed in our stairway, hallway, living room, dining room and kitchen. My cat gets along with all cats, but is very finicky around other dogs, even my own. They are both separated by a gate, so there's no fear of them ever interacting as my dog loves trying to chase her if he ever gets the chance. My dog gets along with most dogs regardless of size but, he'll always be egging them on to play haha. My house isn't entirely large but it's enough for your pet to move around, play, and relax. My complex is very large and a great walking area for your pet. There's also a dog park right around the street that's a wonderful place for your dog to socialize. And, next to that park is a large trail that's perfect for walking. If your dog likes the beach, there's plenty of them in my vicinity.
