I’ve spent my life around all kinds—dogs, cats, and more—so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I love dogs of all sizes, from tiny teacups to gentle giants like Great Danes! I also have a soft spot for pups who may be a little anxious or shy; I’m calm, patient, and always happy to give them the extra care and comfort they need.

Pet sitting and dog walking fit perfectly into my schedule, as I currently work part-time and have plenty of flexibility during the day, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve, whether it’s a midday walk, a play session, or simply keeping them company while you’re away. I’m committed to being reliable and consistent, and I’ll always do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and needs. When caring for pets in your home or taking them on walks, their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn and follow any specific routines or preferences you share—whether that’s feeding instructions, favorite toys, walking routes, or how they like to be comforted. I’m mindful of each pet’s personality, whether they’re energetic, shy, or need a little extra patience. On walks, I make sure they’re secure with their leash or harness at all times, avoid any unsafe areas, and never rush them. In your home, I’ll treat your space with respect and make sure your pet feels calm, cared for, and never alone for too long. Communication is important to me, so I’m always happy to send updates, photos, and will check in with you if there are any questions so your pet gets the best care possible.

About: My name is Sara! I'm a dog enthusiast with 20 years experience training, exercising, and caring for dogs. I graduated from Penn Foster Career School's Dog Training Program. I love to help people fulfill their dogs needs! I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work with dogs full time so I'm able to fulfill their daily needs with ease. We walk every day but also go on adventures to the park and beach. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid Trained. I have a completely fenced yard, but dogs are supervised at all times. I have experience with fearful dog safety. Dogs are crated or tethered while driving. Someone is almost always home with the dogs. I also have a Furbo video camera to monitor dogs if I do need to leave for a short time. ***Due to having 2-3 dogs staying with me at times, I only offer meet & greets, pick up, and drop off from my clients homes. I find this keeps the excitement and stress level down for all dogs staying. It's also more convenient for you and me. If you want to see the accommodations, I can do a video tour with you.***
