Pet care experience

Your dog's new best friend

Hello! My name is Sarah, and I’m a recent graduate from Cal Poly SLO with a lifelong love for animals, big and small. I have experience caring for dogs and cats for family, friends, and neighbors, and I truly enjoy getting to know the personalities of each pet I meet. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I do care for a small aquarium with zebrafish and a snail—and Rover gives me the wonderful opportunity to spend time with new furry friends. I'm comfortable with walks of all lengths, and have experience with both high and low energy dogs. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m also flexible with cost and cancellations, and I pride myself on being a quick, reliable communicator. Please feel free to reach out anytime with questions. I can’t wait to meet you and your furbaby!

Safety, trust & environment

When walking dogs, I always prioritize their safety and comfort. For me, this means secure leashes and walking in areas that feel safe. I tailor the walk to the dog- whether that's a jog for a higher energy dog or a slower walk for some sniffing and exploring. I also ensure there are plenty of bathroom and water breaks as needed. I'll keep you updated with messages and photos of your fur baby so you can be assured they're in good hands during our walks.

Sarah is an excellent dog walker. She was communicative and punctual. I felt that my dog was with a trustworthy person. I highly recommend her.

Whenever my dog would come to visit our apartment, Sarah was so thoughtful and attentive! She always made sure my dog had water, was fed on time, and got plenty of walks. Her friendly and outgoing personality makes dogs instantly comfortable around her. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and trustworthy caregiver!

Sarah has been amazing with my cat, Nova! Not only is she friendly and patient with her, she is a responsible, considerate and trustworthy person in all aspects of her life. She is, without a doubt, the first person I would ask to take care for my sweet girl!

Schedule

I’m currently enjoying my summer after graduating from college, and my only regular commitment is my part-time retail job at the Gilroy Outlets. This means I have plenty of availability during weekdays, which I will be sure to constantly update in my personal calendar. My reliable schedule allows me to fit in lots of walks outside of work to fit your pup's needs.

It’s always helpful for me to know your dog’s unique quirks and personality ahead of time. For example, if they tend to jump when excited or feel uncomfortable around other dogs, that lets me plan the walk in a way that keeps them safe and happy. I also love knowing their favorite walking pace, treats, or spots they enjoy- those little details help me make the experience extra fun and comfortable for them. The more I know, the better I can work with you and your pup to ensure a great experience for all.
