Sarah is the best sitter! I felt relaxed on vacation knowing my cats were in great care and loved while I was away! Sarah is very punctual and a great communicator!! I appreciated the daily updates and photos!! I especially appreciated that she took the time to love them with all the cuddles and playtime!!

We have two older male cats and a dog (Furface, Gummy, and Hopper), so Sarah was an amazing help when my family took a trip!! When she visited us she was very polite and gentle with our three boys. She was on time all the days we needed her. She took care to give one of my cats his medicine, clean the litter box, walk the dog, and play with all of them. She cleaned up after herself and the pets; all the food, treats, and toys put away neatly as they should. I’d say Sarah is the help you need :)

Schedule

Because my work schedule varies week-to-week, I am highly adaptable and can often accommodate non-traditional times, last-minute requests, and mid-day visits that standard 9-to-5 sitters cannot. I manage my calendar tightly to ensure that when your pet is booked, they get my 100% undivided attention, medical care, and training focus.

To ensure I provide the absolute best care possible, please share any specific behavioral triggers, dietary allergies, medical conditions, or unique daily needs your pet might have before our booking begins.
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.
