Safety, trust & environment

Each situation is different so the amount of time spent with a pet will be dictated by the pet parent. Whatever your fur baby needs is what I will give them. If I am house sitting, I will respect your space and follow the rules and standards that you set. I will ensure fences are latched and leashes are secured. Each pet will have their individual needs met.

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any food restrictions or allergies. Tell me if your pet is reactive (to people or other pets) and what situations or enviorments to avoid with your pet.

A typical day

I will take your beloved pet on walks and/or spend time playing their favorite games. For pets who move at a slower pace would go out for picnics and sit out in the sun.

Keep them safe. Keep them loved

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve worked at pet stores and currently work at a Doggy Daycare and Boarding facility (Love Unleashed, St. Louis) while at university. I want to make pets feel the least amount of stress as possible, while their humans are away. I want to give them Love, Security, and Fun.

Sarah was fantastic! She sent photos of the pups any time we requested, let us know if anything was out of the ordinary, and genuinely spent time with both our pups. We are excited to use Sarah again in the future!

Sarah is a top notch dog sitter. She will leave your house looking clean and send you daily updates and pics. She will allow you to enjoy your vacation while you are away from the dogs. She is a very kind person and I knew I could trust the house and dogs with her.

We couldn’t have asked for better care of our animals and house while we were away. Sarah did a great job keeping us updated on our pets and really did an outstanding job.

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.
