About sarah

Hi, my name is Sarah and I come as a package with my doggo Apollo🐕.

I will happily consider dog walking if pick up is close by and your doggo is happy to tag along with me and Apollo. I am regularly in 🌳Mt Coot-tha for long walks/runs and would happily pick up another well behaved companion. 
We've been together for almost 5 years and it's been one big learning experience.  The working breed dog is unique and requires more then just physical exercise,  he has taught me so much about dogs and about myself.  Apollo is a rescue and was already 1 when I got him, he was reactive, lacking trust and clearly hadn't been invested in.  He is so smart, I can't imagine how frustrated he was not being able to use his big brain🦧. I've learnt the skills of training and am now studying for my DELTA 👩‍🎓 dog training qualification so I can help others. 
We live in house with a garden but can also accept boarding at your home which needs to be large enough for 2 dogs,  preferably with a garden☘️🍀I have the flexibility to work from home but am required in the office on some days so my availability may be limited as I will only accept bookings where I can be available to mostly WFH🏡 and supervise the dogs. I will ensure the dogs are socialising appropriately and take them for fun walks daily.  We will follow your house rules regarding dog privileges on furniture and in certain rooms. I believe in letting the dog have choice in engagement and respect their choice to have space and not be overwhelmed by strangers.

I am originally from the UK🌍 and have been living in Australia for 4 years. I was sponsored to work for a large global corporation in the finance sector👩‍💻 in order to fill a talent and knowledge gap within the Australian workplace. I have been required to meet alot of visa requirements including interviews and both UK and Australian police checks (which I am happy to provide). I have recently been awarded permanent residency. 

I will only accept bookings with a meet & greet beforehand for the safety and comfort of the dogs. 
We look forward to hearing from you !!

Sarah was absolutely amazing with our Border Collie Molly. I first met Sarah when she was a Pawshake client of mine. When I saw what an incredible job she had done raising her own rescue dog, Apollo, I knew she would be the perfect pet sitter for Molly. Sarah went above and beyond regular pet sitting to make sure Molly had the best weekend, with lots of runs and walks.She sent me videos and photos and I could see Molly was having the best time and enjoying her time with Apollo. Communication was outstanding and Sarah is a true dog lover. She also took excellent care of our home and treated it like her own. I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough and have already booked her to take care of Molly when next we are away.
