Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that I am outside watching the pets in back yards to prevent escapes. If pets are prone to escaping, I will keep them on a leash in the backyard even if it is fenced. While walking, I will make sure dogs are kept at a distance of people or other dogs. For cats and other small animals as well as dogs, I open home doors slowly and make sure the pet is not near the door to prevent escaping.

Information Sarah P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you pets need any special assistance, medication, fears, and how they react to other animals or people. Knowing if pets are prone to escaping is very helpful as well.

A typical day

Hikes, fetch, and all kinds of fun that dogs love. I provide cats and other small animals a lot of snuggles and loves. Dogs will get their snuggles as well.

Dog, Cat, and Small Animal Care

Pet care experience

I provide one on one care to each dog, cat, and small animals in a family. They will receive a lot of walks, attention, and love. I can also give any medication needed. I will stay overnight with your pets and even let them sleep on the bed if that is allowed by you. I'm willing to drive your dogs to the vets should an emergency arrive. I have been petsitting for about 10 years independently. Right now I've been petsitting for a lot of greyhounds but I am willing to watch any dog. I also care for two rescue dogs as well. I will also watch your other pets and provide love for them as well, cats, birds, reptiles, and horses includes. I'll watch farm animals as well.

Sarah took great care of our dogs. She sent picture updates each evening which was very nice to have. She took care of our home and left it clean when she left. We will always check with her first when we need a house sitter again!

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.
