Availability

Important Notice!: I am not accepting weekend house-sitting appointments due to working another job (I will be gone for 8 hours). If that is okay with you, please send me a message and I will adjust it in my calendar. I will also not be able to house-sit full time and will leave for periods during the day, if you have any questions on this as well please feel free to send me a message for questions. I will generally be gone throughout the day. I’m currently part-time and student at wake tech, and have a second job as a receptionist. My Schedule is busy at the moment, so please message me for availability, I will message you back as soon as I can.

Sarah was amazing and very friendly! She was flexible to meet our needs and kept us up to date! We felt our fur babies were in very good hands and we appreciated the quick responsiveness and picture updates! We will definitely use her in the future!

I would not hesitate to book Sarah again she did another excellent job taken care of Tyson. Her communication was excellent and Tyson was completely relaxed and peaceful when I returned home after a few days away. I referred a family member to her that has travel plans coming up.

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.
