About: I’ve had animals in my life since I was a baby. I have always enjoyed being around animals and playing with them and building trust with them and being able to cuddle with them on tough days. I have had different types of animals in my life. I have had dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs, hamster, bearded dragon. I currently work part time as a nanny on mondays and Friday and I also currently am trying to create my own business of refurbishing furniture when I have the time. So I am available most days. If yard is fenced I let them run and play and watch them at all times. Otherwise I will put a leash on them so they stay close. I will also pay attention to where they are at all times.
About: With over 10 years of experience dog sitting and house sitting for family and friends, I treat every pup like part of the family.🐶I may not have a dog of my own right now, but that just means your furry friend gets all my attention and love! Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just being a comforting presence, I’m here to make sure your pet is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away.💛 Since I work remotely, I can turn any home into my “office” - which means your pups get company and care all day long!🐾From weekday fetch breaks to weekend adventures, I’m available when they need me. I’m happy to stay at your home so your pets can stick to their routine, and I’m totally up for long-term stays too. More time together just means more tail wags, more belly rubs, and more happy pups!🐶💜 I care for your pets right in their own home so they can stick to their favorite routines -whether that’s morning zoomies, afternoon naps in a sunny spot, or evening belly rubs.🐾Being in their familiar space keeps stress low and tails wagging. I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles, and I’ll keep your home tidy so you return to both happy pets and a happy house. 🐶🏠🪴
“Sarah was a fantastic sitter. She was kind, communicative, respectful of our wishes, more than helpful (washed animal dishes without our prompting), etc. I cannot say enough positive things. Her pictures of our animals clearly showed she spent time with them inside our home and in the yard. She engaged with them and made them feel safe while we were out of town during some big storms. We will absolutely be future customers.”
“SO happy & pleased with how Megan & Lucky treated our precious Wilson and home. We feel so lucky to have found them. They left our home in tip-top shape and Wilson was as happy as can be :) Seriously impressed!”
About: Dogs have been apart of my life forever! The passion grew after working in pet retail for a number of years. I have been a Dog Mom, Dog Auntie and Foster Mom. I know the stress boarding can put on a dog, especially older dogs. I have been through a Reactive Dog course due to fostering. I have basic training knowledge from pet retail. I have helped neighbors and friends over the years, care for their dogs, while they have been out of town. I'm looking to expand my network. My normal work schedule is M-F, 730am-4pm.

“Vicki has, on several occasions, been our dog sitter. Reggie has always loved Vicki. We were neighbors so he'd stay at her house and I'm fairly certain he never missed us at all. She kept him for a month when we had to be abroad and even though he was happy to see us, he would have been completely content staying there longer. She would send us pictures of him, take him for walks, and play with him. She's great with dogs and a true dog lover that I would highly recommend.”
