Pet care experience

Animal lover, big backyard

I offer house and pet sitting, doggie daycare, and boarding services. I own two dogs and a Senegal parrot, and my experience with animals is extensive and varied, having cared for many different types throughout my life. I am passionate about animals and have a flexible daily schedule, along with reliable transportation. To ease your mind during your absence, I can provide regular photo updates of your pets, ensuring they are well cared for. Working from home allows me the flexibility to take pets outside for frequent bathroom breaks every 2-3 hours and for brief walks during the day. Daytime drop-offs for sitting can be arranged from 7 AM onwards. My backyard is securely fenced and my two small dogs are very sociable and welcoming to guests.

Rocco always has a wonderful time with Sarah! She is so sweet with him and keeps us updated with pictures of his adventures; she is also flexible and understanding, which we really appreciate. We trust her completely and Rocco is looking forward to his next stay with her!

Sarah is an excellent sitter! Our dog ADORES going to her house, and she stays in contact, sharing updates, while our pup is there. Our dog had to take two medications daily while she was there, and Sarah handled it easily. She responds quickly to inquiries and check-ins. I would recommend her for sure.

Sarah is always fantastic with Mops and Zoey. We encountered some flight delays this week, and she was incredibly accommodating, taking care of our pups while we were away.

Sarah and Luis are phenomenal. They take such good care of our dogs and our dogs are always so excited to see them. (I think more excited to see them than us!)

Safety, trust & environment

🌳🌲🌳I have a big fenced back yard and 2 very friendly small dogs. We spend a lot of time outside working on the yard. The dogs enjoy chipmunk and squirrel hunting, and relaxing on the back patio. When we are inside, the dogs have prime squirrel watching on the couch under the big front picture window.

Pets

A typical day

We spend our days enjoying the yard, playing fetch, sitting outside on the deck. If it’s too hot to spend time outside we have a lot of space inside to play around or nap.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Sarah can host up to 4 dogs per day
Let me know if your pet has special needs. If they are highly reactive, anxious, etc. I can only accept small dogs for day sitting in my home. They will be able to play with my other 2 dogs inside. I give everyone frequent potty breaks outside.
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.
