Pet care experience

Experienced vet assistant

I have grown up in a house with multiple animals my whole life. My dad is a professional dog trainer so I have grown up with a background of being able to read and understand dogs. My family also breeds Shorthairs so I'm very well rounded. I have worked in vet's offices for 10 years, and have had many years of animal care experience in different fields. I have been a petsitter for around 15 years, and my business grew by word of mouth. My daughter and son love to travel with me so kid friendly dogs are preferred. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I am free any day of the week and most any time you may need me. My schedule is very flexible as long as my son can travel with me. I will always do meet and greets with the pets and owners to make sure we are a good fit. I will follow all instructions given to me by the owners to keep the animals feeling safe. Due to some recent issues with bully mixes and my two pups, I am not boarding any dogs mixed with pit bull in my home. I apologize for any inconvenience.

Looking for an incredible experience for you and your four-legged babies? Book with Sarah E.! She is knowledgable, highly organized and a great communicator. Recently moving to the area, I was extremely nervous about finding the right pet care for our 2 dogs for an upcoming 15 day trip. Previously being a Vet-Tech, Sarah was familiar with everything our dogs needed. She worked with us to accommodate our needs. I just hope she'll be available for all our future trips! Schedule a meet & greet today, and you'll see exactly what I mean!

Sarah took care of our spoiled girl, Rowan, like she was one of her own. Loved the updates and knowing she was playing and meeting new friends!

Sarah was great with our two dogs! She was very communicative, sent updates & photos and stuck to our dogs’ schedules as needed. We felt extremely comfortable since one of our dogs needs multiple medications throughout the day. Both dogs loved Sarah and her sweet daughter! They were happy, healthy & exhausted when we got home! Thank you Sarah!

Sarah was great and very professional. She texted me updates about her visit with Penny, which I greatly appreciated. I would definitely recommend her!

Sarah Edwards is a very reliable and dependable pet setter. Sarah goes out of her way for your pets. One of our dogs needs med twice daily and his ears cleaned daily, Sarah stayed at our home so she would be there to treat him. We are very sad that she has moved away. What we have lost, you have gained.

We have used Sarah E for our pet-sitting needs since she started her business over two years ago. We have been very pleased with the level of service and her willingness to accommodate our special pet's special needs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced in yard. Dogs are allowed to run the entirety of my open concept downstairs. I have a gate up to prevent them from going upstairs to the kids bedrooms. Dogs are all fed in their kennels (including mine) to prevent any food aggression issues. Dogs are all kenneled at night and when I leave the house (which is rare) during the day.

Pets

A typical day

Depending on what the animal likes I may throw the ball, take them for walks, or just wrestle with them in the house. I am very flexible on my activities.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Sarah can host up to 5 pets per night
I’d like to know if medication needs to be administered and how often. I need to know if the animal is kid friendly (for drop in clients) so I have the opportunity to find childcare if needed. For my boarding clients, dogs must be up to date with Rabies and DHPP vaccines and owners must provide proof of a negative fecal in the past year of their stay for adult dogs and within a month of their stay for puppies.
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.
