Pet care experience

Centrally Located Pet Mom!

I grew up on a farm with animals of all kinds but have cared for just dogs and cats in recent years. My partner and I are pet-only parents (no kids) and we understand how there are just never enough hours in the day to walk our dogs for was long as we want or give our cat the cuddles she demands! If you have a similar experience, I can help by stopping by to check in on your furry friends and/or take them for walks.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

With 2 dogs and a cat at home, I don't think I could board other pets at my house at this time, though in the past I have watched several friends and family members' dogs while they are out of town so it certainly isn't out of the realm of possibility. We have a fenced in yard and a very walkable neighborhood. My philosophy for pet sitting is to follow the rules and expectations that pet parents have established in their homes and for their pets. I rely on in-person conversations and detailed lists about feeding times, walking norms, personalities, etc. to guide my actions and responses. Growing up around animals (both farm and domestic), I believe I have a unique sense for understanding animals and their emotions that allows me to build trust. I am a natural pack leader in both my pet and human relationships!

Sarah is our go to sitter. She takes excellent care of our cat and goes above and beyond. It is great knowing there is someone we trust taking care of our cat while we are out of town.

Sarah is wonderful! She checked in on my cat regularly and always sent me an update with how things were going. I knew my cat was in good hands!

I like to know about any odd quirks that your pet may have so I am not surprised when they show me their unique qualities! Any "triggers" are helpful to know and if they have a proclivity for something (like my dog's attraction to eating cat poop...). But I like to get to know a pet myself and won't make any judgements prior to meeting them. I believe each pet and every relationship between pet and human is different and has no precedent.
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.
