Pet care experience

Pre-veterinary, animal loving girl

I am a recent graduate from Harding University with a degree in biology and pre-veterinary medicine. I have multiple years working at vet clinics with both dogs, cats, and other amazing animals. I have experience in animal healthcare, CPR, and first aid. I grew up with 3 dogs and 2 cats around at all times. I am comfortable around all breeds of dogs, both small and large (this includes pitbulls as I have grown up around them). I have a great desire and love for all animals. I have house sat for families for as long as one week and as short as a few hours. I go on daily walks around the community and would always love a four-legged walking companion. I am excited to get to meet your furry babies!

Sarah was amazing with Korra this past week! She kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, and it was clear Korra was happy and well cared for. She followed all instructions perfectly and made me feel completely confident leaving Korra in her care. Highly recommend!

Sarah is always great! Animals are well cared for and she is very responsive in communicating. We will continue using her as our go-to sitter when she’s available.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work full time at a law firm in Scottsdale so my availability to be at your home would need to be outside of work hours. I am always available to stay the night as long as your babies are okay staying alone during the work day. My weekends fill up fast though.

Safety, trust & environment

I have multiple years of experience in animal safety and first aid training. I have also been using Rover for a while now and have gained the trust of multiple families who I watch for regularly.

Pets

A typical day

When I watch your babies I like to make sure I’m not just running in and checking off my checklist of things I need to do. I want the dog/cat to feel loved and so I like to take my time and love on them and play with them during my visits.

I would like to know if the dog has any fears or special care notes so that when I am there I am fully prepared.
