About Sarah R.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
During walks, I ensure the dog’s harness and leash are secure and properly fitted. If we encounter another dog, I guide your pet to maintain a safe distance while passing. For safety, I never let dogs off-leash and always proceed cautiously near busy roads. For home visits, I double-check that doors are securely shut when entering and leaving. If your dog is crated, I ensure they are safely inside and the crate is locked before I leave. I also provide detailed updates with photos and descriptions through Rover cards, keeping you informed and confident in my care for your pet.
Information Sarah R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know in advance about any special needs your pet may have (such as medication or disabilities) or any specific requests you have for their visits or walks.
A typical day
I let each dog take their time to explore and enjoy their walk or visit at their own pace. If a dog prefers a faster pace, I’m happy to include some running during the walk! During visits, I engage them with games like fetch or play with their favorite toys. If treats are provided, I use them to reinforce tricks and commands, ensuring a fun and rewarding experience for your dog.

With 14 years of experience, I bring a deep passion and understanding to caring for dogs of all ages and sizes. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior and reactions, ensuring they feel comfortable and safe on every walk. Your dog’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m dedicated to providing personalized care that meets their unique needs.

Reviews
Sarah is awesome! So reliable and great communication! I know I don’t have to worry about my dog at all when she is in Sarah’s care!
Sarah took the best care of my two cats, Tango and Mango!! They are rambunctious orange tabbies with big personalities and I am always hesitant about using someone unfamiliar to them. Sarah stopped over for a meet and greet before and they both took a liking to her. She visited every other day for a little over a week. She did an excellent job feeding them, changing their litter, and spending time playing with them. Sarah provided updates and pictures after each visit, which was much appreciated. She stayed in communication with me and made me feel at ease. The cats really liked her! I would absolutely recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable cat sitter. I will definitely be a repeat customer!
I have already left a review for Sarah, but I just wanted to leave another because she has proved to be even better than I thought! She is extremely reliable and flexible. She has helped me out in a pinch multiple times now! I also love having a reliable dog walker that I can count on and be able to use repeatedly because my dog gets more comfortable the more she knows someone.
Sarah was very communicative and replied to my messages quickly! My dog, Cannoli seemed to really enjoy Sarah’s company. I loved knowing that Cannoli was in great hands!
