Pet care experience

I love your furry friends

Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, especially larger breeds. I grew up in a home with big dogs, so I’m very comfortable handling strong, energetic pups as well as more relaxed companions. I’ve also cared for dogs with special medical needs, including one who was an amputee and another who was battling cancer. Because of that, I understand how important patience, attentiveness, and gentle care are—especially when a dog needs a little extra support. I’m confident administering basic care, sticking to routines, and making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m very active and love getting outside, so long walks, playtime, and keeping your dog engaged are something I genuinely enjoy—not just a task. Whether your dog needs exercise, companionship, or a calm and caring presence, I’ll treat them like my own. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone, and I take that responsibility seriously.

We had an awesome experience with Sarah! We left Molly with her for almost a month, and he got all the exercise and care he needed. Sarah sent daily updates, pictures, and videos, keeping us connected every day. I highly recommend Sarah if you need a sitter. We’ll definitely return to her when we need one again!

Horrible service. She didn’t know that we had cameras in the front door and would lie about when she was there and what time she fed the dogs she was not on schedule whatsoever. Wouldn’t trust my dogs with her.

I had very high expectations of using Rover, however I was dissatisfied on the communication and same day cancellation of walking my puppy. She would take days to respond and ignore me over weekends. She agreed to walk my dog twice a day and only after a week she changed it to once a day. I am not sure if she is too reliable.

Schedule

I take several walks a day, always aiming for 4-6 miles. I can take several breaks during work so your dog can go out regularly.

Safety, trust & environment

I live near a large park with lots of grassy areas that I can take your dog to. I also can crate your dog if needed

A typical day

I will take your dog on walks throughout the park and bring toys with me so that I can play with them. If allowed, I may just stop at the ice cream shop and get your dog a vanilla cone

I would like to know how your dog is handled at home so that I keep his day as familiar as possible. I will stick to his routine as best as I can.
