Pet care experience

Pet care for any size and age!

I'm known as the dog whisperer to my clients! I have completed over two hundred dog walks and about fifty overnight stays. Before Rover, I worked under a local trainer in Los Angeles who ran their own pet sitting company. Experienced with various ages/sized dogs and different types of collars/harnesses they use. Rescued pets are so dear to my heart and I have worked with most of those pups throughout the years! Been taking care of pets for the past 27 years. Raised and trained my own Toy Poodle from when they were a puppy to age 16. Grew up with a Golden Retriever, Toy Poodle, two cats and bunnies. My specialties include senior dog care, pets with anxiety, rescued animals and any fur babies that need extra attention. Worked with dogs, cats, birds and koi fish. Love photographing animals, you can see some of my fun pictures in my bio! I take a very peaceful and slow approach when meeting your pet(s) to give them the time they need to be acclimated to meeting someone new. Pets tend to notice my calm demeanor and playful nature right away! Looking forward to providing your pet/pets with any pet care services they need. Many of my past clients have told me they never have to worry about their pets while they are away.

Safety, trust & environment

I take pets out for walks or out to the backyard depending on client's instructions. Feed, nurture, give medication if they take any, change diapers and play with the pets according to their needs. Change potty pads and tidy up any crates as needed. Make sure water bowls are refilled at all times. Always leave a client's home in the same state as when I arrived or cleaner if there was a pet mess. Clean up any bathroom accidents that the pet had. For cats, I will be cleaning out the litter box daily. I also have my own pet care insurance.

Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Marshall. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, took great care of him, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. One thing I especially appreciated was how communicative she was throughout the stay. She sent lots of great photos and updates, which made it easy to see that Marshall was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and takes her responsibilities seriously. Sarah was also extremely respectful of my home and left everything spotless and exactly as she found it. It’s such a relief to find someone who is not only excellent with pets but also so considerate and trustworthy in your space. I would happily book with Sarah again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter.

Sarah did an amazing job with my 1.5 year old lab puppy while I was gone on a work trip. Sent thorough updates, pictures, videos, and strong comms on both days after every drop-in. She even practiced the commands my dog knows to keep her mind occupied on top of playing with her. Will def be re-booking Sarah in the future.

Sarah was amazing with my two pitbulls! She was communicative, reliable, and kept me updated with photos and videos. She took great care of my dogs and made me feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. My doggies absolutely loved her, and I could tell they were happy and comfortable with her. I look forward to booking with her again! 🐾💕

Sarah was amazing! She went above and beyond for my kitties. I feel like she really took the time to learn their personalities and quirks. She also gave detailed updates each visit which were much appreciated. Would definitely book again. :)
