Caring, Fun, Loving Dog Sitter

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Sarah, and I have recently left full time work to pursue my Master's degree. I have had dogs my whole life, and have had plentiful experience sitting them for neighbors and friends. I would love nothing more than to help a family or individual out with the caring of their special friend - all dogs to me are adorable and loving, and I consider them our family/friends! I have a Bachelor of Art in English from Ohio State University in which I graduated with Honors. I have a successful job history and dog caring background, and have recently been working at Nationwide a little over a year now. I have a readily available resume if you would want to learn more about me!

Sarah was amazing with my two dogs Chloe and Marley!! She was so kind and responsible and sent several pictures throughout the stay! She walked them everyday and stayed after feedings to play with them or just give them some company which I truly appreciated. She let them out three times a day including late nights. I felt my dogs were safe and having a blast with her the whole time! Sarah is a great sitter for anyone looking to feel at ease while away. No complaints!

Information Sarah L. would like to know about your pet

Before joining Rover I have been sitting for neighbors or close friends for over 7 years now. I have never had a bad experience with the dogs I have watched. I come prepared and plan for the unpredictable. I take safety very seriously with myself and the dogs I sit, and will ask a series of questions in a meet and greet before the stay in order to gain important knowledge and guidelines for the pet. I offer a range of services; walking, nightly stays, day time check ins, feeding, bathing, playing, trips to dog parks, groomers or the vet for routine check ups. I have good experience in watching dogs with separation anxiety, and am willing to sit for them. I will not sit for dogs with severe aggressive behaviors over 40 pounds. Aside from all the seriousness, I really do enjoy and love all animals, especially dogs. Their unconditional love and understanding is something I never take for granted in this world, and I have a very soft heart for them that comes with plentiful amounts of patience and love. I love to train dogs as well as run or walk them. When it comes to tug of war they are going to have to put up a fight with me! I would love to learn the games your dog loves most, the places he/she enjoys going or the signals they show when they need care. I don't take any sitting job lightly, each dog is important and special to me, along with the family that owns them. You can count on your dog being on their leash at all times on a walk or park event, securely fasted with a leash if in a car, and never alone even while playing or going to the bathroom outside. I truly take no chances with my clients. I would love to sit for you anytime, my availability ranges from day, evening overnight, weekends, and extended stays!

A typical day

When I'm with a dog I love to first let them get to know me, and come to their level. It's their home, after-all! I tend to let them sniff me first and walk around, then sit with them and get some petting in, and maybe a play toy out. I have had huge success in training if you would ever want me to teach some tricks like sit, lay , roll over and handshakes. I am very attentive to the dog's needs as far as food, bathing and walking goes and will be alert for however they may signal to me to use the bathroom. I like to be loving with the dogs the same way I would be with my own pet! I can guarantee a real caring , enjoyable and loving experience for your dog, and if your dog is active, no worries, because I love to play! I'll have him worn out by the time you get back !
