Information Sarah D. would like to know about your pet

I’ve cared for senior dogs before and I’m familiar with their special needs. I’m also a pug mom so I have a particular love for pugs.

A typical day

My dogs love to play and run around in my big backyard. We typically go for a nightly walk around the neighborhood to check out any new smells and there are several hiking trails nearby that we frequent on the weekends.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Sarah and I’m a lifelong Alaskan. I have a small dog of my own that will welcome your best friend as one of the pack! I grew up with pets, I’ve attended dog behavioral training and first aid courses, and there’s never been a time in my life when I didn’t have a dog. I have a fenced property with a big yard in a convenient midtown location. We’d love to have your dog stay with us!

This was my dogs' second stay with Sarah and it was just as great as the first. My dogs were excited to be back at Sarah's house and came home happy and tired. Sarah was communicative and sent great pictures, even though it was a short stay. I definitely recommend Sarah's services and plan to book with her again in the future.

Our dogs had a great time with Sarah. Bandit cried as we drove away. Sarah gave us update with pictures. We couldn’t be happier with the care she gave our dogs.

Sarah took such good care of my 1 year old Aussie. She simply provided the best care I could have asked for. My puppy came back happy and relaxed. I'll go back to Sarah anytime I need a boarder for my dog.

My pups had a great weekend stay with Sarah! She was very communicative and sent great pictures. Her home was in a convenient location with a lovely fenced yard. Bertie and Oliver came home happy and tired. I will definitely book with Sarah again!

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.
