Availability

Currently I am a university student taken mainly online courses so I’m always home with a flexible schedule. I have 2 classes i attend to every week but am never gone for more than 2-3 hours at a time. I’m an early riser and tend to be a bit of a night owl as well, so there’s plenty of time to play.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard so your pups stay close by when going potty and when I am gone marbles (my cat) will be able to keep them company, if needed i can also crate them. I like to keep my apartment clean so there is never food or a mess for your pups to get into as well.

Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet

Is there anything your dog doesn’t like or anything they have preferences for? Do they like to snuggle? How often and how much food to give if I need to feed them? Are they good with cats? What does their typical daily routine look like?

A typical day

Daily walks are a fun way to be active and see new places, walks by the waterfront, the citadel hill, and point pleasant are some of my favourites.

Pet care experience

I’ve owned and taken care of many small to big dogs all my life, growing up with animals in the house and around me. Currently I have a cat who is best friends with her golden retriever back home in ontario. I have held my own accountability and taken the responsibility to feed, walk, bathe, and play with my pets everyday because they need enrichment as well.

I have had Sarah walk my dog a few times now and my dog absolutely loves her, the excitement she shows when Sarah comes says it all. Highly recommend Sarah

Sarah was amazing with my Golden Retriever, she was well cared for and Sarah was simply lovely. I already booked her again. Highly recommend Sarah for your pets.

This was our first time using rover and came across Sarah as we wanted someone with senior dog experience and someone that has repeat customers and good reviews. She maintained communication when needed, cared for both our dog and cat and our place was the same as when we left (she stayed for 2 days and one night). Definitely a good experience and I would definitely have her back to take care of them again.

Sarah watched our 3 dogs for 4 nights in our home while we away. She was quick to reply to any messages and she kept us posted about our dogs well-being the whole time. Super sweet girl! The house looks just how we left it and the dogs are in a great mood! Will definitely reach out to her again if we have any other dog sitting needs!
