About Sarah M.

100% bookings with photo updates

Cat skills

Oral medication administration

Safety, trust & environment

I will always check in with a pet owner regarding the pet’s personality, likes and dislikes, to ensure that I am providing them with the same environment they would normally have while with their owner. I keep clear and organized notes to ensure I am following owner instructions clearly and concisely while also providing top quality care. I also love to communicate with the owner and send pictures or updates as needed to give them the peace of mind that their pet is in great hands.

Information Sarah M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if there are any important medications or rituals you have with your cats that you would like me to address.

A typical day

I love to have fun with your cats both physically and mentally! I can use some toy wands to help them reach high places and jump, and provide them with catnip toys if they need to calm down at the end of the day.

Cat care experience

I’ve lived in a cat friendly household since I was a little kid, and I can’t imagine a life without cats in it. I also volunteer at a local cat shelter so I have plenty of experience taking care of the basic cat needs, including cleaning their litter, giving medications, and replenishing food and water. I also love to play with cats and will make sure they get enough playtime in during the day, or if they need to get some cuddles and pets as well.

Sarah was communicative, reliable, and so affectionate to our old lady cat!

Sarah was a wonderful pet sitter and house guest. Throughout her stay, she was proactive, responsive, and communicative, sending regular updates and photos that gave us real peace of mind while we were away. She clearly took the responsibility seriously and made everything feel easy from a distance. We really appreciated her care and would happily recommend her.

Sarah was a pleasure to have watch my cat! She is obviously very experienced with cats and was proactive about setting up meetings and understanding expectations for care. My apartment was neat and tidy when I returned and my cat was happy and healthy (though understandably peevish at having been left out of my travel plans). It was the least stressful aspect of planning my trip!

Sarah stayed at our place and took care of our cat for 6 nights. Sarah is an excellent communicator and notified us upon arrival and departure of the booking, shared photos of our cat, and other updates. I would highly recommend Sarah for your catsitting needs!

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.
