About
Are you tired of wondering if your pup is actually getting the time outside that's promised? I will run or walk your dog whenever necessary and make sure that he/she is getting ample playtime and sunshine! I can also watch your pup when you go away, long term or short term. If it's your cat that needs love, then I'll be there for him/her.

Sarah was wonderful! She took the time to get to know my kitties before I left and she sent me daily photos of them which I so appreciated! I came back from out of town to two happy cats :) I would highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah did an awesome job with my very needy Siamese. She was so attentive and spent quality time with him. I will definately call Sarah again!

Outstanding! Our dogs love Sarah (always a good thing for walkers!). We have two "kids"- both about 55-lbs and 3-years old. Sarah usually runs with them or takes them to the local dog park- but either way, they come back very well exercised and (more importantly for us) tired! Sarah is very responsive to text messaging (to set up appointments) and is overall just a good person who loves dogs like us. I find her trustworthy and reliable- and just generally a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend.
