5 Years of Professional Experience

When I was a little kid, my dream job was to be a veterinarian, so you can imagine my excitement when I got into the vet tech program right out of high school. Despite that, I quickly fell flat on my face and decided I couldn’t emotionally handle it. I’m undecided about schooling now, but I’ve never lost the love I have for animals or the desire to work with them in one way or another, so I am currently working full-time at an animal hospital in the boarding & grooming wing (5 years), and I do pet-sitting in my free time! Due to my experiences, I’ve been around all kinds of dogs and cats with all sorts of personalities, behaviors, medications, and disabilities; so I like to believe I can work around just about anything for your pet! Was on hiatus from Rover as I was doing enough pet-sitting locally for people, but I wanted to expand my clientele. Please reach out if interested! I’d love to become one of your pet’s contacts! <3

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Before caring for your pet, I’d like to know their reactivity to things such as people, other dogs, and any other small animals they might pass on a walk (if applicable) so I know what to avoid to keep your pet’s stress levels down—and mine too! Any quirks you know about your pet as to what they like or dislike. I like to remind people that your pet & I will start as strangers. Please share everything you think I should know!

Sarah is absolutely wonderful. She is loving, caring and professional. She cares so much and takes the time to notice anything that may be bothering your dog. I would recommend Sarah 100%.

Sarah did a great job letting our pups out. She even cleaned up the poop in the yard which we didn’t expect. She goes above and beyond what we expected. We will call on Sarah in the future and we highly recommend her.

Sarah is the best! She is always there for Milly, even when its very last minute! Milly always seems so happy when Sarah is there! I've used Sarah multiple times, and will absolutely use her in the future!

The best sitter I’ve ever had. Polite, responsible, and puts in that extra effort to help while we were away. I felt very comfortable having her taking care of my Tucker. Thank you Rover! And a special thanks to Sarah.

Sarah was excellent. I was very impressed with her timely responses to my texts. She worked very hard around my crazy schedule to drop by and visit/meet Chief before coming. Highly satisfied and will recommend her to my friends and I WILL request her again.

Schedule

I am currently working full-time, but my schedule and my workplace itself tends to be more flexible and accommodating depending on our staffing that week. I’ve taken breaks before to go walk dogs, so I try to be very open. Don’t be afraid to shoot me a message and we can see if I can make it work! :-)

I trust that a client will have their pets fully vaccinated before allowing a sitter to step in. I am used to handling all kinds of reactive and even aggressive animals, but things do still happen. It is for the safety of your pet, me, and the other animals I care for to keep your pets up to date. Thank you in advance!
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.
