Pet care experience

A walk a day keeps the doctor away

Hello! A little bit about me, my name is Sarah. I completed my undergrad at Central Michigan University in psychology and child development and I graduated from Oakland University studying counseling. I work 6-3 and have summers off but my husband works from home. I have experience house sitting as well as watching friends and family’s dogs. I am active and like to hike and run. I am also very lazy and love cuddle time 💜 I have two mini Australian Shepherds named Emmitt and Waylon, a puppy named Dallas and a cat named Margot. Margot and the boys love to play with all of their new dog friends. I look forward to hearing from you.

Great communication and wobderful with my dog, Stella. It's clear when I pick her up based on her relaxed temperament for at least the following day that she got to play and run off some energy. Highly recommend!

Sarah is lovely. Their home is very welcome to our dogs and they have Aussies as well making it that much more fun for our boys. You can tell they had a ton of fun because they fell asleep as soon as they got home. Will work with Sarah again, for sure!

Sarah and Nick were so great with my two small dogs! I highly recommend them and will book them again in the future.

Sarah and her husband were excellent care takers for our dog Daisy! We were in the area for our wedding and we were able to enjoy our special night without worrying about our pup. Sarah was flexible and easy to communicate with!

I couldn’t be more satisfied with Sarah! She and her husband are very nice people and made us and our puppy to feel at ease almost within 5 mins of our meet and greet. She was quick to respond and she provided daily pictures and updates on Pepper, who seemed to have a great time with her and her dogs (who also are super chill). Would book again.

Being new to rover, it can be an unsettling concept but Sarah made me feel so comfortable. She was great! She accepted my last minute request to hang out with my two dogs for an hour, which is so appreciated! My dogs adored her and were stuck to her like glue! She was on time and responsive. I would absolutely use again Sarah in the future!

I like to know the dogs energy level, if they are potty trained, how often they need to go out, if they will elope, and anything specific to the dog.
