First time Rover users and weren’t sure how things would turn out. We were pleasantly surprised. Decided to use Sara T. because of her location and that she allows pets in bed. Could not be more pleased with the experience. Sara T. was professional and kept us updated with pictures/videos/texts. Highly recommend Sara T. as we will be booking with her in the future.

Sara, is fantastic! I’ve never used this service and she was wonderful, communicated throughout my fur Childrens’s stay with pictures. I highly recommend Sara!

Amazing sitter! Very reliable and my cats and dogs love her. Very kind, even to the fat animals. Always very flexible with my schedule and anticipates problems.

Information Sara T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the usual schedule for your pet so that I am able to stick to their routine and help your dog feel at ease! It’s also helpful to know what specific command words you use with dog, as well as any specific rules you enforce. I strive to make the transition both into and out of my home as smooth as possible. I would also like to know your dog’s favorite toys and treats so they can come home spoiled. *If your pet has any known food/leash aggression or any quirks (afraid of vacuum, men in hats, etc) please let me know so that I can be prepared and do my best to avoid any potential issues. If your dog will be staying in my home, they must be up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention for the safety of my family. Unfortunately, I can not dog sit in my home for adult dogs that are not potty trained or for dogs that solely use puppy pads.

A typical day

We will take daily walks and have lots of playtime. My schedule is flexible so I will make sure to try and stick as closely to your pets home routine as possible to help keep them comfortable.
