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!

First time using rover and was an easy experience. Milo seemed to have enjoyed his time there. Overall, good experience. Thanks Sarah!

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.
