Pet care experience

Work from home - private balcony!

Hi there! I’m Sarah. I’m here to make your pet feel at ease, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, treating them with complete respect for your wants and wishes. I live with only my husband and son (born Feb. 2025) - we do not have pets of our own, due to our traveling! I’m on extended leave, so your pup will have *all* of the attention! To ensure that attention, I only dogsit for one family at a time. My home is a second floor apartment, with a private, fenced-in balcony, close to numerous parks for our longer walks. I grew up on a farm upstate, always taking care of dogs, and I’ve dogsat for over two decades. For the past 8 years, I’ve also volunteered at, and fostered dogs through, the SPCA. I joined Rover after moving to Queens to continue my dogsitting. :) I’m very reliable and keep to scheduled meals, medical needs and exercise. Oh! And let's not forget plenty of cuddling. I love taking pictures and updating families on what their fur babes are up to! I love dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and temperaments! ******* Important note: My landlord's one restriction is that each dog must be under 60 lbs. ******* I look forward to meeting you soon!

We have a very happy pup! Sarah was communicative and sent plenty of pics. Our dog got so much exercise (we can see it through her Tractive app) and came back very happy. She took such good care of her and her baby was so good with her. We will definitely have her watch our dog again.

Going away is always scary when you’d be so far from your pups, but Sarah was consistent in keeping me updated and kept my girls safe and happy their entire stay. Her care was much appreciated and is highly suggested!

Sarah was great! We were in a little hurry since our sitter canceled on us a week before us going away so we found sara and booked her right away. She was so sweet with our boys. They loved her and I felt at ease to know that they were well taken care of. Always updated me and sent me pics of my boys on a daily basis. I will definitely be using her again! She's great.

Schedule

Safety, trust & environment

I have a very spacious, two-bedroom apartment, with no other pets--just a husband and son (born Feb. 2025)--to ensure your pet's absolute safety. We also have a grassy, fenced-in balcony that no other apartment has access to!

A typical day

● A typical day will have at least 3 walks, interspersed with frequent trips onto our grassy, fully-fenced balcony. ● All meals and medications will be given exactly as directed! ● Lots of play, snuggles, and affection! ● Rover's official boarding day is a 24-hour time period, but I am very open to whatever schedule works best for you! ● I'm 5 minutes from LGA. If your plane leaves at 5am or arrives at 3am, I can still make it work, with no extra cost to worry about. :)

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Sarah can host up to 2 pets per night
● Things your dog likes! I want to make sure we do activities they’ll love! ● What makes them the happiest? Do they have any favorite games? ● Things your dog doesn’t like! Does your pet have any allergies, any triggers, any medical conditions, any shyness or anxiety? ● Any special routines you’d like followed! Do you want paws wiped after walks, treats given for specific god behaviors, etc.? ● Do you allow your pet on furniture? (I allow pets on furniture, but only if that’s okay with you!) I want to make sure your pup has the happiest, safest, and most comfortable time possible!
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.
