Pet care experience

Dedicated Animal Lover: Happy, Healthy Pets & Relaxed Owners ([15+] years experience) About Me: I'm a passionate animal caregiver who deeply understands various pet needs, from senior dogs to rescue animals. My experience includes training, grooming, behavior modification, and keeping your plants thriving! Most importantly, my top priority is ensuring peace of mind and your pet's peace of mind. Why Choose Me? Experienced & Reliable: I've volunteered at animal shelters and fostered numerous breeds (Akitas, Maltipoos, etc.). Plus, I work remotely flexibly, allowing me to dedicate quality time to your furry friend. Stress-Free Experience: We'll start with a meet-and-greet to discuss your pet's routine and answer all your questions. Regular updates with photos via the Rover app keep you connected. No pet will be left alone for more than 3.5 hours at max and I would discuss this with you before you leave. Customized Care: Whether your pet needs medication, training, or playtime, I will follow your instructions and provide the best possible care. My Services: Dog walking & playtime Feeding & medication administration Training & behavior modification Overnight stays & in-home pet-sitting Availability: I work remotely and have a car, allowing me to travel within a 5-mile radius.

Sarah is our fave sitter. She takes excellent care of our pups and I love the updates we get from her. She is an excellent communicator and we can enjoy our vacation knowing we will come home to them happy and safe.

Information Sarah K. would like to know about your pet

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - What’s your preferred method of communication? - Does your pup/cat have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Do you have a vet nearby that you trust? - Is your dog/cat spayed/neutered? - Does your pup/cat like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup/cat do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup/cat? - Does your dog/cat aggressively bite or have they?
