You certainly don't want to use the SA account.

If you go to your database, you should see a security/users tab somewhere.

If you don't see any user besides SA, you should add one. You can
either create a Windows User account, or one directly in SQL Server.

Then just add that user to db_owner, or something more restrictive if
necessary. Then add that user to the DB you want it to access.
