Pet care experience

Lover of all things dog!

I've been a dog lover since childhood and a dog owner for over 10 years. As a kid, I begged for a dog every birthday and Christmas, but never got one. I promised myself that when I was older, I’d get a dog—and that’s exactly what I did! For the past 10 years, I’ve had my own dog, training and caring for him since he was 8 weeks old. Through caring for my dog and others, I’ve learned how important it is to have a reliable, patient, and loving dog-sitter. I also understand the convenience and accessibility Rover provides, as finding the right boarding facility or dog-sitter can often be difficult and expensive. With over 10 years of experience in sitting, walking, and boarding, I offer a loving, dependable service for dogs—big or small, young or old. Rest assured your dog will be in great hands with me!

Boarding • Juni 02, 2025

Sahara was great! I could tell my dog was enjoying his time with Sahara and her dog. She checked in with me, sent lots of pictures, and was very flexible with drop off and pick up times. I will definitely book again in the future!

Sahara watched my boy Bruno on short notice. Sahara communicated well. And sent me photos. I'm sure Bruno loves her.

Doggy Day Care • März 31, 2025

Sahara has such a calm, comforting energy—it instantly put both me and my pup, Blue, at ease. She took such thoughtful care of him, and I could tell he felt safe, loved, and totally at home with her. What really stood out was her communication: consistent, clear, and always kind. She kept me in the loop with updates that made me smile. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like family and brings a beautiful, grounded presence into their care, Sahara is it. Truly a gem!

Sahara is a wonderful dog mom. She takes great care of her dog, and has watched my dog on several different occasions. There’s no other person I’d trust more to watch my dog!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 10 year old cockapoo with the energy of a 2 year old! He is just as playful as he is chill; just depends on if balls are around to fetch! He is very easy going and gets along well with younger and older dogs. I have 3 story townhome with a fenced backyard. I have mostly wood floors and carpet in bed rooms. I have enough space to for crates, playpens or whatever set up you prefer for your pup.

Pets

A typical day

I’ll make sure your pet has a great time with activities like daily walks, playtime in the house or yard, and plenty of cuddles. I know that every dog is different, so I’ll tailor everything to their needs, personality and energy level to keep them happy and comfortable!

It’s important to know about your pet’s habits, temperament, any allergies, or special needs. Understanding their routine, preferences, and behavior helps me provide the best care possible and keep them comfortable.
