Pet care experience

I will love them like my own!

Ever since I was little I've always loved dogs! Growing up there were always dogs around and it was so much fun. Fast forward-I am a stay at home mom but was previously a nanny and some of the families had 1 or 2 dogs that I loved playing with, taking on walks, and snuggling. I would stay for 1-2 weeks throughout the year at their house watching their dogs while they were on vacation. From playing fetch, back scratches to belly rubs, breakfast and dinner, and all of the in betweens you'll know your dog(s) is/are in great hands! It's always so much fun walking in the door and having a dog greet you being so happy that you are there! I've done many overnight dogsitting nights as well as popping in once/twice during the day to let them go potty. I do have small children at home so family/child friendly dogs only please :)

Sarah did a great job! She sent pictures and texts with status updates and I felt very comfortable with Sarah watching our dog.

Sarah is wonderful! We were introduced to her by a mutual friend and we're so happy to share her with everyone here at Rover, too! Having Bella in Sarah's care gave us such peace of mind during our vacation. She sends thorough and adorable daily "pupdates" with lots of fun pictures, too! Sarah is very attentive as well. She noticed Bella must have cut her paw on ice, while playing outside or on their walk together, and cleaned it, put medicine on it, and text us right away to let us know about it. It was clear she took great care of our little pup; taking her on long walks and playing inside with her, too! She even gave Bella little puppy massages!! Sarah was also flexible, and more than accommodating, when we were delayed returning and stayed a bit longer than previously planned so that Bella had company. We will definitely ask her first to watch Bella again in the near future!

Sarah and her husband stayed at our house for a week with our 12 year old Lab. Sarah frequently sent pictures and updates, and when we got home it was obvious that she was very well taken care of. They not only provided excellent care for our dog, but also left our home immaculate! We will gladly have Sarah stay in our house again!

Sarah is wonderful and I will use her again. Sarah pet sat at my home for my 12 yr old golden retriever Ruby and 4+ yr old sassy cat, Delta, for 6 days. I knew she was special right away because both Ruby and Delta took to her immediately when we interviewed. She kept in touch sending photos while I was gone and from the video of her pet sitting, you can see how happy Ruby and Delta were. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious pet sitter.

I provide care in my home. Lots of snuggles, play time, and walks (weather dependent). I take care of your pet(s) as if they were my own.

A typical day

We will go on walks around the neighborhood, on the bike bath, through town- wherever the wind takes us! I love playing fetch with dogs. They get so happy and excited!!

I would like to know if the dogs are up to date on shots, if they've ever lashed out at someone before. If there's any special instructions or guidelines for the dog. Dogs need to be child friendly.
