Meet Sara

One local pet sitter who gets to know your pets and your home.

I bring 25+ years of hands-on pet care experience to every visit. I know how stressful it can feel to leave pets behind, especially senior pets, anxious pets, and pets with very specific routines.

I take notes carefully, send updates, and try to keep things as normal as possible while you are away. You are not booking a random rotation of sitters. You are booking directly with one local caregiver.

Meet-and-greet available before first booking

Why pets stay home

Many pets do better staying in their own space.

Instead of going to a kennel, daycare, or boarding space, their food, smells, toys, litter, beds, walking routes, and routines stay the same. That can make travel easier for you and calmer for them. Visits at home are not continuous supervision; for a dog who needs company all day, we should discuss whether the visit schedule is suitable.
