Geneticist that loves dogs/cats!

Pet care experience

Hello I started Rover in Grad School. I missed taking care of my dog in Indiana, and was looking for opportunities to take care of other pets in the area. Now that I am working at NIH, I am open to tacking care of pets in the evening after work, or during any vacations. I would be able to walk, feed, and play with for a while before/after getting back from work. I love all dog breeds as well as cats, and am excited to start helping families with their pet needs.

House and our pup were in excellent shape when we returned! Sarah was in communication throughout and very quick to respond to our texts. We felt very much at ease during our trip as a result.

Sarah was wonderful. House and dog were both in great shape when we came home, and Sarah kept in touch during our absence. Would recommend most highly!

Absolutely fantastic! Sarah did an amazing job keeping our very old and anxious dog comfortable. Our dog has some unique medical needs and she managed it all without any trouble. Sarah just jumped right into his routine and picked up right where we left off. Her communication with us was wonderful and we came home to a happy dog. Thank you Sarah!!!!

Information Sarah B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the breed (all breeds are welcome) and how friendly the dog is. Also if there is any medication the dog is on.

A typical day

Caring for a dog should include, multiple walks per day (depending on how the dog does with walking... high exercise vs. senior dog...) playing with toys, practicing the tricks his/her owners have worked on, and of course a lot of attention.
