Safe, comfy, and in good hands :)

Pet care experience

Hi! I am an animal lover with experience in pet sitting, house sitting, and dog walking. I have a cat of my own at home (who is cared for while I’m doing sits!), and I am comfortable with all kinds of animals. I am available for walking, visits, and overnight stays, but I cannot currently host pets in my household. My goal is to make sure you feel you are heard, and that your pets and home are safe, comfortable, and taken care of. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have, and I can’t wait to meet your sweet ones!

Sara (Newt) was fantastic, and it was clear Lonny loved them. Would love to book them again next time we leave town.

Sara was an extremely reliable sitter for our cats while we were abroad for two weeks. Each check-in was detailed and thoughtful, giving us peace of mind that our boys were well taken care of while we were away. Sara went above and beyond during her visits, letting us know about any changes in our cats’ eating habits, behavior, and energy levels, on top of sticking to our original care instructions. Thanks for everything, Sara!

Safety, trust & environment

I have been working in animal care for over six years, and feel that my experiences have provided me with a wealth of information on how to care for a wide variety of pet personalities and needs. My reviews on Rover and from other pet care clients reflect a feeling of security and peace when their pets are in my care.

Information Sara K. would like to know about your pet

It is always helpful to know if there is anything of note about your dog's social experiences, including if they have issues with certain areas around your neighborhood, other dogs, other types of animals, and people. I like to be as prepared as possible for these kinds of interactions so I can be equipped to make sure they are comfortable.

A typical day

When caring for cats, I love getting to know their personalities, whether it be through play or giving them their space. I understand that cats can vary greatly and a typical day will involve getting to know them and giving them love on their own terms. I love to take dogs to a park or dog park if the owner is comfortable! When getting to know a dog I will be caring for, I always ask about favorite methods of play, what kind of treats are encouraged or not, and about what kind of language and training they are familiar with. I love to make sure the dogs in my care get plenty of play :)
