Pet care experience

BELLY RUBS GALORE!

I’ve been pet sitting dogs, cats, and small exotic pets for over a decade! I initially gained professional dog-handling experience from dog daycares/kennels. Then I became a vet tech and have worked in emergency care as well as general practice for a few years. I love taking care of pets in their own homes and do whatever I can to keep your pet on their normal routine while you’re gone! I'm comfortable with canines, felines, small animals, old, young, and everyone in between! Let me come care for your pets in the comfort of their own space, I will love them like they are my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I take safety very seriously. I keep doors locked behind me unless told otherwise. I make sure if we’re going outside that the leash/harness is secure, and I don’t allow other people or pets to approach us on walks for safety. I’m Fear Free certified which means I’ve taken courses on body language and how to interact with dogs specifically.

Sarah is the very best!!!!!! We loved having her watch our cats and will definitely be booking with her again. She has great cat energy and our two boys love her. We have a litter robot and automatic pet feeder, so we really just wanted someone to check in every couple of days while we were out of the country with no cell service for over a week on our honeymoon. Sarah noticed that one of our cats messed with the feeder machine and it looked like it wasn't dispensing food the right way. Sarah went out of her way to do extra visits to make sure that the cats had food. 10/10, she also helped water my patio garden plants while we were away

I loved that Sarah took care of my dog, she sent me lot of pictures and gave me details of how was it going. She was always available and flexible with pick up and drop off and that’s something to be appreciate. Thank you again!

We recently had Sarah make 2 drop-in visits for our dog and she was great. Our dog usually has separation anxiety when someone just drops in for a few minutes, but Sarah stuck around for a little bit and that really helped with her anxiety. We even got some pictures of her playing with her ball. We'll definitely be using Sarah again in the future!

House Sitting • lug 08, 2015

I was hesitant at first to contact Rover.com but being the 4th of July weekend we were stuck and had no one else to watch our dogs, the site was very easy to use and we found the perfect dog sitter near our home. We contacted Sarah and she responded immediately and we set up a day for her to come to our house and met us and our dogs. Sarah was wonderful. She is very nice, respectful, and pleasent. She updated us daily and the best part were the pictures of our dogs having a great time! Sarah is the best and we would not hesitate to have her watch our dogs again.

Sarah is a great pet sitter. She has been sitting For our dogs and cat for about 10 years, now and she is our go-to sitter for when we go out of town and need someone to watch our animals. Wouldn't trust anyone else!

I've pet sat for both young and older dogs/cats. I understand that a lot of older pets have special needs, may need more potty-breaks, have difficulty moving around, or need to be fed medication or a special blend of food. Whatever your animal's age or specific needs are, I am happy to do it! I want your pet to be as comfortable and happy as possible, so I do understand the importance of keeping them on a consistent routine.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
