Highlights
Pet care experience
Great with big dogs and rescues!
Growing up with german shepherds sparked a lifelong love of dogs of every shape and size. The most recent family shepherd was a rescue, who survived a serious attack as a young puppy. Raising him taught me the gentleness and compassion often needed to approach rescues, and I have brought that experience to my Rover caretaking. Since working with Rover, I have had successful and happy walks, dayboarding, and overnights with several rescues and dogs of all breeds and sizes, ranging from king Charles cavalier to great danes, english mastiffs, labs, huskies and pit bull mixes. Though dogs are my first love, I've also had the chance to do drop-ins and sleepovers with some sweet kitties. I find myself falling in love with them too. I moved back to the states a couple years ago after working abroad in the humanitarian sector for several years. I returned to Rover in a time of transition and have built a full-time business loving on neighbors pets. It has truly been a joy! I have been pretty cautious when it comes to COVID over the course of the pandemic and have remained healthy during that time. That said, I'm still very open to working with healthcare professionals and folks who can no longer work from home, and I am willing to do testing or wear masks if it makes a client more comfortable with me entering their home. Thanks for reading and looking forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! Just be forewarned, I'll likely end up becoming one of their favorite people 😇
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I have a crate available for pets who require a secure space when left alone but typically I stay with the animal as much as possible while they are in my home.
Ratings and reviews
Couldn’t recommend Sarah more! She helped me out for alittle over a week with my pup. She was easy to communicate with, on time, and great with my new rescue pup!
Sarah is wonderful! She really took the time to get to know Moose and Rudy during our meet and greet and took excellent care of them during their walk. She is also very communicative and flexible!
Sarah is fantastic; she is very experienced and takes the time to get to know each dog to meet their needs. Great communication with lots of photos!
Sarah was great and helped me out last minute. She was responsive and came over for a meet-and-greet before my trip. She made sure my dogs were fully cared for by feeding them, walking them, and spending time playing with them so they got the full attention and care during the entire booking. Highly recommend!
Sarah is the best! She’s been our person for nearly 5 years, watching our cat, June, and we couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!
Sarah is lovely and I'm looking forward to having her back again!
