Highlights
Pet care experience
Master at Gently Loving Furry Ones
I grew up with dobermans, mini pins, schnauzers, and chihuahuas. I have always adored animals and shared such a deep connection with them. Since age 18, I have owned and care for over 8 different animals including senior dobermans, senior border collie, raised a French bull dog, and lived and cared for a cat with special needs for 5 years. I am good with shy, timid animals, as well as elderly or sick, and with puppies. I have experience with timid dogs, neglected dogs, super energetic dogs, and am highly attuned to their needs whether that’s more space, more time, more attention, and have a good knowing of when there is something a dog may be in need of. My household is very calm, quiet, and peaceful. I have a large yard. I currently have one pet, she is a small pomeranian mix and likes to keep to herself mostly.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
I am truly excited to recommend Sarah for any position involving pet care. She has grown up surrounded by dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities, and her natural connection with animals is something truly special. She is incredibly sweet, patient, and attentive with every pet she meets, and she understands their needs on both a practical and emotional level. Whether it’s feeding, walking, medication, playtime, or simply offering comfort, she always goes above and beyond to make sure animals feel safe and loved. She’s the type of person who notices the little things and responds with genuine care. Any pet parent would be lucky to have her looking after their furry family members. She would make an exceptional Rover sitter or employee—responsible, reliable, and deeply passionate about animals. I trust her completely with my own pets, and I know others will feel the same. I can’t speak highly enough of Sarah!
Sarah is the most attentive and compassionate pet parent I know. Not only is she great with her two little ones, she has helped take care of dogs with various temperaments and sizes like they’re her own. She is very well read on how to feed, medicate, and bond with all kinds of different breeds. She has a huge heart for all pets and is especially trustworthy.
Sarah is one of most and caring person I know of people and animals they will be in good hands with her. Sarah is good people.

Schedule
I work from home mostly, I am home the majority of each day. I’m never gone for more than a few hours normally and if I’m watching pets I am gone less than that. I can accommodate for the most part if you’re pet requires anything just let me know their needs ahead of time.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large yard and fully secured 6ft stockade fence. The pet will have access to the kitchen and large living room area during the day. The crate (if required) will be set up in my kitchen. I permit them to be on the couch with me. Again, if there is any accommodation within reason to this arrangement let me know ahead of time!
Pets
A typical day
We will go for a walk in my neighborhood if they stay with me, or if they are open to a drive to the park that is always an option as well. I like to go to early wine parks usually. Otherwise I will walk them in the neighborhood and play with them in my backyard. If they love being in the backyard and the weather is good then I am home to allow them playtime as long as permitted and desired in the back yard.
