Availability

I am now working full time on weekdays in an office so have limited availability. I do not book further than a month out. Communication is key of course, and I'm confident we can work out a schedule that works for all of us (me, you, and your furbabies). I tend to travel a bit so it is always good to confirm my schedule before booking. I am also often available last minute though, too.

Information Sara B. would like to know about your pet

Their schedule, routine, and idiosyncrasies- and how to put on their harness! Your do’s and don’ts for your pets and your expectations should all be clearly communicated in your profile and when we meet.

We are so lucky to have easy access to bike paths, trails, parks, etc., and I can adapt to any of these based on your location and what your pet likes to do.

Your Fur Baby's BFF

Pet care experience

As the first pet caretaker on Rover for the WRV, I previously cared for a great many dogs in my home, as you'll see from my reviews. As our first pug was aging, and we re-homed another pug, I decided to take a break from Rover. I came back in late 2023 to dog walk, and drop-ins most frequently and can offer house/pet sitting at your home when my schedule allows. I love to love on furbabies and have always taken excellent care of others pets, the same as I would my own. I have taken a full time in office position M-F 8a-5p so my availability is now much more limited than it had been previously. I am not interested in long-term commitments (ie: walking your day every day you're at work for an indefinite amount of time) but prefer short-term, temporary gigs. I am also not booking further out than a month right now. I am ideal as a last-minute option or as your backup to your regular dog walker. I try to keep the calendar up to date but sometimes things change quickly so if I show as unavailable it sometimes doesn't hurt to check and make sure that's true. (And sometimes the opposite will happen too).

Sara came very last-minute and did an excellent job. My cats seem happy, she gave detailed updates, and she followed all directions! Thanks, Sara!

We’ve booked Sara multiple times for pop-in visits with our cat. You’d never know it from Sara’s interactions with her, but our cat has a violent side. She’s scared off sitters before. But we can tell from the pictures and Austen’s disposition when we get home that she feels comfortable with Sara. Brings us great peace of mind!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
