The couple, who divorced in 1996, reside at the Royal Lodge on Windsor Manor.
The source said the Duchess was linked to the Queen by a shared love of dog walking and horseback riding.
The source added that even after her divorce from Prince Andrew, Sarah continued to be friends with the queen, walking dogs around the Windsor estate.
The Queen, who died on September 8 at the age of 96, reportedly had four dogs, two of which are Pembroke Welsh Corgis, Muick and Sandy.

She also reportedly left behind an older mixed-breed Dorgi named Candy and a Cocker Spaniel named Lissy. It is unclear who will look after Candy and Lissy.
Corgis have become synonymous with the Queen, who has been regularly photographed with a Welsh Corgi at her feet throughout her long life.
The Queen is often credited with creating the Dorgi breed when her Corgi was bred to a Dachshund owned by her sister, Princess Margaret.
The Queen's passion for corgis dates back to her childhood when she fell in love with her father, King George VI's dog, Dookie. In 1944, when she was 18, she was given a Pembroke Welsh Corgi puppy named Susan. Her affection for Susan was so great that she reportedly took her with her on her honeymoon in 1947. Susan died in January 1959.
During her lifetime, the Queen owned dozens of Corgis. One of them, Willow, appeared with her in a James Bond skit she recorded for the London 2012 Olympics opening ceremony.

When Willow was euthanized at the age of 14, the Queen lost her original Corgi's last offspring, Susan. According to Reader's Digest, the Queen loved Corgis because of their "energy and wild spirit."
