Information Sarah C. would like to know about your pet

I would just want to know about any anxieties or special needs that your dog has. Also where you keep your leash, poop bags, and any treats you’d like me to give.

A typical day

I enjoy neighborhood and park walks, especially exploring your dog's favorite places! I’m happy to play with a dog and their fav ball or toys, to go for a walk if desired (whether you’ve requested a walk or drop-in service), or just to keep them company while they rest if it’s a bad weather day or they are a more nervous pup. I’ll tailor what I offer to your dog’s temperament and needs, as well as any requests.

Pet care experience

Hello neighbors! I am a mom and resident of Rochester who works from home regularly and loves to go for a walk with or drop in to see your pup as a break from my day. My husband and I had our own dog until she passed away and, over the years, have also fostered several others and dogsat frequently. I love all dogs and have a special soft spot for pitties and other larger breeds. We have two young kids who enjoy having dog visitors as well. I typically only take a couple bookings per week, though I make exceptions when I can for repeat customers and for customers who live especially close to us. Feel free to get in touch to learn more about me and how I can support your family.

I am so lucky to have found Sarah to watch my golden retriever for a week last minute. I have never boarded her before and she can be a very anxious dog. She did a great job taking care of her special needs and sending updates. 100% recommended.

Sarah was awesome and worked with me on short notice! Dogs were comfortable with her from the initial meeting and trusted her to drop in and take them for walks!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
