Pet care experience

I like animals more than people!

What sets me apart from other sitters is my ability to connect with each animal on an individual basis. I have been making connections and nurturing animals since I got my first golden retriever as a young girl, as well as learning to care for my handicapped cat.

Safety, trust & environment

I have empathy for those having to leave their pets so safety is a top priority for me when pet-sitting.I will always use a leash on walks and at home if there is no fenced in yard available. I would also like to know if the pet has any likes/dislikes, anxieties, or any special instructions; ie medications, allergies

Sarah is the absolute best. Her love and passion for animals is exactly why she’s our designated Rover. She’s kind, professional, and communicative. We’ll have her take care of my Amos anytime!

Sarah does a great job with my shy cat. She has accepted Sarah unconditionally. I’m grateful for Sarah’s care of my cat.

Sarah is very communicative and responsive, and made best friends with my kitties! I just moved to the area and was worried that I couldn’t find a good cat sitter. So glad that I found Sarah! Will definitely use her service for my future travels and highly recommend her for fellow pet parents ☺️

Definitely let me know of any injuries or allergies of any kind. Definitely let me know as well if your pet is an “escape artist”. And if there are any special preferences you want me to know about. And I always ask if the pet can have a treat!
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.
