We are very fortunate to have found Sarah. Our pup, Honey, was a rescue that had been mistreated. It has made her highly anxious with new experiences. Honey needed a sensitive and experienced person. Sarah put us right at ease, kept us informed the entire time and took expert care of our girl! Highly, highly recommend!!!!!

Kari is so wonderful with the animals she cares for. I could tell by the way my dog Ruger acted as soon as he entered her home. Usually when I pick him up, he let's me know that he's not pleased I was gone, but after a stay with Kari he is totally calm and happy. Thanks for taking such great care of my boy!

About: I have experience fostering dogs with the animal shelter APL and have a small toy poodle of my own. He is very friendly with other dogs and loves to play. I love dogs and would love to have the opportunity to watch dogs and take care of others! I am open to watching dogs for a couple hours, a day, or even a couple of days if that is what is needed. My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of. I’m currently only working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals. I am available early mornings or early afternoons to give your animal a break during the workday! I am also available any time on the weekends. I have a fenced in yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I have a toy poodle and a golden retriever. I can also do drops in to walk or play with your dog as well!

About: I’ve also grown up around cats my whole life. My family had several cats over the years, including Sassy, Dean, Muggzie, and Soxi, who have all since passed away. When I was around 12, my dad found a stray kitten that I helped raise and named Sophie (who I believe may be part Siamese). We also began caring for another stray cat we started feeding, took to the vet, and named Frankie. These are the two cats we currently care for. Because of this experience, I’m comfortable with both very affectionate, relaxed cats as well as more independent or temperamental personalities, and I always try to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away.

I am able and willing to help an animal navigate their needs and wants because it helps me to give them the care they deserve. I am a college student!
