Safety, trust & environment

I love to support my animal friends with all their favorite activities: neighborhood watch with Grizz the cat, sunshine naps with Tuck the dog, providing food for Panja and Mischa’s secret cat meetings, and all the walkies with Nikko the dog, to name a few. I’ll always maintain your pet’s normal routine to the best of my ability, from crate time to medicine to weirdly specific food preferences. You know how to love your pets best, and I want to emulate that as best I can!

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds since I was a little kid, and I will love your pups and kitties like they’re my own. Did I once introduce a nurse post-surgery to my friend’s cat, aka my “god daughter cat” while my friend was standing right there? Maybe. Have I made a calendar for all of the pets I watch on a regular basis? More than once. I love taking dogs on walks and slowly winning over senior cats, and I have experience taking care of dogs and cats of all ages.

​If you are looking for a pet sitter who treats your fur babies like her own, look no further than Sarah. We recently had her check in on and feed/clean the litter box for our two cats, Oliver and Loki, for two weeks and we couldn’t be happier with the care they received. ​Sarah provided incredibly detailed updates, which were always accompanied by a wealth of photos and videos. It was such a comfort to see Oliver and Loki looking so happy and relaxed while we were away. Through her videos and descriptions, it was clear that she was showering them with plenty of pets, play, and genuine affection. ​ALong with the excellent pet care, Sarah went above and beyond her tasks by proactively bringing in packages, watering our plants, and taking the time to wash the dishes used for the cats' wet food. Coming home to happy cats and a tidy house made our return so much smoother. When our friends and relatives asked after the cats during our trip, we always ​bragged that "we have the best cat sitter!" Sarah is professional, communicative, and truly has a heart for animals. We cannot recommend her highly enough and will definitely be booking her again for our next trip!

Sarah was awesome! She really seemed to enjoy our cat Suki and engaged a ton with her during her visits. I would recommend her and will definitely be asking Sarah to drop in again on Suki.

Sarah was awesome with Lilah!! She was very caring and sweet and treated Lilah like her own fur baby, even when they were still getting to know each other and Lilah was shy. Sarah was great about sending photos and notes and checking in throughout my trip, which was so appreciated. Thank you for watching Lilah Bean while I was gone!!

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.
