I care deeply for animals and work to understand their nonverbal ways of communicating. I’m attuned to the emotional and physical needs of others. I believe pets experience forms of loneliness, confusion, or boredom when their person is away, and I aim to acknowledge and respond to that in a grounded, reassuring way.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m a full-time professional pet sitter based in the Ferndale/Royal Oak/Hazel Park area. I’ve been caring for pets professionally since 2017 and transitioned to full-time pet care in 2023. I was born and raised in Ann Arbor, and moved to Detroit in 2013 to attend the College for Creative Studies, where I earned my BFA in studio art.

Sarah did an amazing job with our kitties! She sent us thorough updates, was amazing at picking up on their little quirks and personalities, and gave them lots of play time which we know they love! We felt totally comfortable knowing they were in good care while we were gone ❤️

Thank you for taking such good care of our dogs, for the attention to detail when learning about our dogs’ needs, for the excellent communication, and for the sweet photos we received. Our dogs and home were so well cared for and we look forward to having your watch the pups again sometime!

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.
