Pet care experience
I've had the great joy of owning and caring for several dogs in my lifetime. Ever since I was young I've been trusted with the pets of friends, family members, and neighbors. I genuinely love every dog I see, and believe that each pupper has their own unique and wonderful personality. In the past, I have also loved and owned 2 cats, each whose personality utterly charmed me. Currently, I have a 2 year-old Lab-Australian Shepherd mix. She is such an energetic and goofy girl. I routinely take her out on hikes with me, so if you have a very high-energy dog, I will have no trouble getting them the exercise they need. Before Luna came along, we had a Rhodesian Ridge back mix . I loved her very much but like many Rhodesians, she could be stubborn. From her I learned the patience that is needed for many dogs; patience that will be used on your dog as well. I always try to speak to them gently. It is important to me that I form a relationship with your pup. Over the years, I've sat many dogs, some of which had very specific instructions for care. I make sure I do everything precisely and the more detail the better! I have experience with elderly dogs and have been responsible for their medication as well, from sitting and personal experience with my own dogs. My experience with cats is more limited, but I have cared for a handful of cats in the past years and owned a cat before when I was younger. I love the little guys and think that there few things more calming than a cat purring in your lap. For my entire life I've been surrounded by these amazing creatures, and I can't think of a more rewarding job than caring for yours.
Reviews
Sarah is the best!! Our energetic pup loves his outings with her.
Sarah was a life saver and I feel so lucky to have found her! She made sure to send updates with pictures and was extremely attentive. My cat loved having her visit and took to her immediately. I can’t recommend Sarah enough!
My dog was super happy with his first Rover care, with Sarah. Thank you!
Sarah is great! she took vesper to dog park, and my dog is so happy when he got home!

I live an active lifestyle and will be able to provide your dog with plenty of exercise on many walking routes that provide stimulation for your pet. I live in an apartment and have 3 roommates who adore dogs (and miss theirs back at home) and cats and will give them some extra love. If your pet wants some alone time, they are of course welcome out of our apartment living space and into my room for some down time.
Information Sarah C. would like to know about your pet
I don’t have any breed preferences but I do like to know if your dog is aggressive towards anything in particular. I’ve worked with some dogs like this before and it’s good to know beforehand. Additionally, since I live in an apartment, dogs that bark excessively might pose some issues. Thank you!
A typical day
Like mentioned above, I have many walking routes to stimulate your dog and keep them happy and entertained. On especially hot days, I also have routes that are primarily in the shade and have water breaks along the way. One of my favorite places to go is the Seattle U quad, where there is a nice water feature that water-loving dogs enjoy visiting. Another great stop I like to take is the Plymouth Pillars dog park, an off leash park with plenty of room to explore and play with other dogs.

I’m currently playing for Seattle U, and have on average one 2 hour practice per day. Besides that, I am free to look after your dog or cat!
