House Sitting in Stony Fork

About: Growing up, dogs have always been an integral part of my life. From the moment I was a child, I was fortunate to have a furry companion by my side. My first dog, a cheerful Labrador named Buddy, taught me the true meaning of loyalty and unconditional love. I remember how he would greet me with wagging tail every day after school, his eyes shining with excitement. As I grew older, my bond with dogs only deepened. Each dog brought its own unique personality and joy into my life. There was Max, the mischievous Beagle who loved to dig holes in the yard, and then there was Daisy, a gentle Golden Retriever who was the perfect therapy dog, always calming and comforting. These experiences shaped my understanding of patience, responsibility, and compassion. Having dogs my whole life has also meant facing some challenges—like caring for their health, training them, and saying goodbye when the time comes. Those moments were heartbreaking, but they also reinforced the preciousness of every moment spent together. Their unwavering loyalty and the pure happiness they radiate have left a lasting impact on me. Overall, my lifelong relationship with dogs has been a journey filled with love, learning, and unforgettable memories. They’ve been more than pets; they’ve been family, teachers, and best friends. I can’t imagine my life. I am currently off for the summer! Looking for someone to get exercise with and have fun! I have a pretty open schedule to fit all of your needs! Understanding the pet’s needs: Gather detailed info about the pet’s diet, routines, health issues, and preferences from the owner. Creating a safe environment: Ensure the space is free of hazards, and provide a comfortable area for eating, sleeping, and playing. Feeding and hydration: Follow the owner’s instructions for meals, treats, and fresh water. Exercise and mental stimulation: Engage the pet with appropriate play, walks, or training activities. Grooming and hygiene: Assist with brushing, bathing, or cleaning up after the pet as instructed. Medication and health monitoring: Administer medications if needed, and observe for signs of illness or discomfort, reporting any concerns to the owner. Security: Keep doors, gates, and fences secure; supervise outdoor activities.

“Can’t thank Sari enough. She came in on short notice, was so genuine and friendly, quick to respond and helped my dog go through her first ever heat cycle. My dog having her dog period was very unexpected and I could not be more grateful for having someone like Sari. She sent pictures and was very caring for my animals. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of pup sitting services. She should be on the front cover of Rover magazine if there was one. THANK YOU!!”

About: With recent puppy experience and a background as a nurse, I will care for you doggos exactly as you would. Be at peace while traveling knowing your pet family is in good hands. :) I have a full time job, however as a nurse I only work 3 nights a week—the others are available. I can be flexible as necessary! I provide attentive services—paying special attention to diets, behaviors, continuing training, and potty habits. If your dog has special needs, I am happy to accommodate!

About: I volunteer at the SPCA walking dogs and caring for the cats. I'm a lover of all animals. I'm very clean and responsible and care for all animals as I would a family member. I'm currently working full-time, but I'm available after 4 and all weekends and holidays. I have a dog and fours cats of my own and this seems to work for them. They are very happy. I take my dog on long walks and provide him enrichment treats and toys. I always check when leaving to make sure that nothing is out he can hurt himself with. I'm also very strict on cleaning the cat boxes as I don't want them to get sick or smell up the house. I will clean up after your pets and I will make sure they are safe and happy.

About: Here to be a service to my fellow local pet owners. Love, care, and lots of attention is what I believe a pet truly needs. I'd love to help take care of your little family member :) God Bless and be well. I am a part-time student and i currently work a customer service job from home. I have a very flexible schedule to match your needs. Everything can be discussed, and a secure and detail plan can be implemented at your request. Thank you for your support. I'm very vigilant while I'm supervising your pet(s). I know how sudden and mischievous they can be at times lol. Safety is my number one concern when taking care of any living being. Safety first, fun right after.
