Information Sarah G. would like to know about your pet

Important Things to Know About Your Pet 🌼 Before I care for your furry friend, I love learning any details that help me give them the safest and most comfortable experience possible. Please let me know about any medicine they take, special needs they have, mobility challenges, anxiety triggers, preferred routines, or behaviors I should be aware of. I am patient and confident with dogs who need extra support, whether that means careful medicine giving, slow and gentle handling, or additional reassurance during walks and visits. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor their care to keep them happy, calm, and fully understood.

A typical day

Fun Activities I Love Doing With Pets 🎉🐾 -Energetic outings with lively, engaging walks that match your dogs play level. -Gentle games like fetch or light tug if your dog enjoys interactive play. -Calm strolls for dogs who prefer a slow, peaceful pace. -Sniff walks that let your dog explore and enjoy enriching scents. -Quiet cuddles and soft company for anxious or shy pups who need comfort. -Mental enrichment like simple treat puzzles or focus games using what you provide. -Encouraging confidence building for dogs that are timid, unsure, or clingy. -Tailored activities that match your dogs unique personality and needs. -Lots of positivity, gentle words, and warm encouragement every step of the way. Expect a positive, warm, and peaceful environment. Every walk and visit is engaging and tailored to your dogs individual needs. My approach is gentle, steady, and ideal for high anxiety pups who need extra reassurance or close comforting company.

Trusted Care With Heart

Pet care experience

With eight years of hands-on experience caring for dogs—starting at just ten years old—I’ve developed a deep understanding of canine behavior and individual needs. I’m comfortable working with shy, energetic, or special-care pups, and I know how to read their body language, build trust, and create a calm, positive environment. From feeding and basic training to administering simple care routines, I’m confident, patient, and attentive. Most importantly, I treat every dog with the same love and consistency I give my own foster pups.

Sarah demonstrates exceptional professionalism in pet care. She graciously accepted my last-minute reservation during the holiday season, and I am deeply appreciative of her assistance. During our final meet-and-greet, she provided me with a comprehensive overview of the Rover platform. Her thorough updates were invaluable. Notably, when I inadvertently missed her call regarding a question, she demonstrated remarkable self-sufficiency in making appropriate decisions. Furthermore, she went above and beyond to ensure Lilo’s well-being during a power outage in my area, bringing in packages left at my doorstep. I eagerly anticipate continuing this partnership with Sarah on Rover.

Sarah was so nice to accept a last minute dog walk, and she was prompt and friendly. She sent a good update after the walk. I would definitely book with her again!
