Pets Are My Passion!

If my friends could only tell you one thing about me, they would say, “Sarah LOVES dogs.” My mom and I have run a rescue for cats and I have volunteered at many shelters since I was a child. My neighbors are always telling me how amazing I am with pets, and frequently ask me to care for their animals while they are at work or otherwise unavailable!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have plenty of experience with dogs too smart for their own good by owning a husky and Shiba Inu, a very clever escape artist duo. I am well-equipped to ensure your pet is safe and feels loved while mom and dad are away!

Sarah is nothing short of incredible & amazing!! From the way she communicated on the first day, to her positive, sweet & energetic demeanor with both me & my dog Dixie. She was on time, thorough in telling me about their walk & it's easy to see she enjoys what she does. As a company, Rover is very fortunate to have someone like her, a part of their team!!

Sarah is fantastic with our dogs! They get so excited when she comes over to take them on a walk and play outside. We will definitely be asking Sarah back!

Sarah is absolutely fantastic to my 16 month old treeing walker and and my 4 month old German Wirehaired Pointer. Punctual and affectionate. Highly recommend.

Sarah has always been good with pets, even in childhood. I've always been able to trust her to take care of my animals whenever i needed her! She is sweet, loving, and kind with every pet that she meets.

I have known Sarah for over 2 years now at this point and have been able to witness her love and enthusiasm for pets, especially dogs. She is extremely responsible with taking care of her own dog and is constantly assisting friends, family, and neighbors with watching and taking care of their dogs when needed. Sarah is someone who takes the wellbeing of her dog very seriously and understands how important it is to be responsible and provide proper care for animals. Just as her pet has unconditional love for her, Sarah reciprocates the same love back to not only her own pet but others as well. I myself have requested the help of Sarah to take care of my dog when I am out of town and she is one of the few people who I truly trust to keep my pet safe and cared for.
