I'm currently off for the summer so I have a lot of time at home. I will let the dogs out every 2-4 hours when away but they will be out roaming the house when I am home. Dogs are welcomed in all rooms and on beds and furniture in the home.

Information Sarah S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about any special needs your dog may have including medications. I will need to know what time of day they eat and how much they eat a day. I will need to know if they have been around children and other dogs previously. I also love to know what they like best and will help me connect with them! I want them to feel at home as much as possible!

A typical day

We will go on lots of walks around the neighborhood and local trails. We will spend a lot of time in my backyard running around and playing with toys.

Pet care experience

Dogs and cats have been part of my family my whole life! I have also been a dog sitter for over 10 years. A few years ago, my husband and I raised 6 puppies from birth until they went to their new homes at 10 weeks. We currently have three dogs: Ash (Siberian Husky), Koda (Australian Shepherd), and Hickory (Husky-Australian Shepherd mix) who we love to play with, take for walks, and run around in the backyard.

Sarah is fantastic and took great care of our dog! Our pup had a great time running around with her new furry friends. Sarah sent plenty of pictures, and was always quick to respond to messages. Our dog was happy and healthy when we picked her up, and even seemed a bit sad to leave. We would love to have Sarah host our girl again!

Sarah was available on short notice and gave my dog a fun day of play with her dogs. Would definitely book with her again.

Sarah is fantastic and makes everything so easy. I needed a weekend sitter in a pinch and she responded to my request within minutes. I got regular updates and videos and picked up a very happy dog.

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.
