Safety, trust & environment

While I am taking care of your pets, I will provide frequent updates so that you can relax knowing that your pets are in good hands! On walks, I will ensure that your pet is on leash at all times and that I pay attention to any potential triggers you have notified me of. If your pet exhibits any irregular behaviours, I will reach out to notify you and monitor the situation.

Incredible as always - so glad to have Sarah care for Moana. Moana is always so comfortable and happy with Sarah and then misses her when she's gone!

Moana hadn't seen Sarah in a while and experienced some new triggers, but Sarah handled it all masterfully and reached out for support from us when she needed it. Really appreciate how thorough and attentive she is to our special needs baby, Moana. Thank you, Sarah!

Sarah is amazing! She stayed at our home and cared for our 13 lb pomsky, and I could immediately tell how comfortable and happy he was with her. She communicated regularly, sent us great photos, and left us feeling completely at ease while we were away. When we got home, our pup was relaxed and clearly well loved. I would absolutely recommend her and look forward to having her watch him again!

Sarah did a great job with both of our dogs. One is shy and anxious but seemed to warm up immediately and had no issues. Will definitely hire again.

Sarah handles Moana's extreme anxiety and fear-based aggression in the best possible ways - by listening, responding, and honoring what Moana is trying to communicate. Super grateful to have found the perfect sitter for Moana in Sarah!

- What does your dog's daily schedule look like? - How many walks do they usually go on and for what duration? Do you have any favourite routes/dog parks nearby that you like to go to? - How is your dog's temperament on walks? Are they reactive towards other dogs/people? If so, what are their triggers? - For dog sitting and boarding, have you ever used a sitter before? Does your dog display any signs of anxiety/distress around new people? - What does their feeding schedule look like? Do they take any supplements/medication that will need to be administered? - Are they potty trained? What does their potty schedule look like? - Where do they sleep? If I'm boarding your pet at my place, is their crate required for the duration of the stay? - Any additional information you feel is important to allow me to provide the best care for your pets
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.
