Boarding • Jul 23, 2026

Sarah has watched my pet multiple times and always takes excellent care of her. She is friendly, flexible with scheduling, and was able to administer meds and communicate updates regularly. Highly recommend!

I always know my cats are in great hands! Communication is excellent, and the photos of the cats always make me laugh. I can’t recommend her enough for your pet sitting needs!

Sarah truly goes above and beyond every time. She treats our cats like her own, pays attention to every detail, and always makes sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We have total peace of mind knowing they’re in such great hands!

House Sitting • Aug 31, 2025

Sarah is amazing!!! Our dog and cat love her! She stayed in our home for a week and took the best care of our pets! She gave great updates and left the house absolutely spotless when we came home from vacation! I cannot recommend Sarah enough!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house with a fenced in back yard and the neighborhood has walkable sidewalks. Currently, there are two other animals in my home (cats), but I do have pet gates and can separate them away from other pets on different floors of the house as necessary!

Pets

A typical day

As long as the owner/pet is comfortable with it and there are no restrictions, I usually like to walk around the neighborhood, allow the dogs to sniff around, play with any of their favorite toys, hang out in the fenced in back yard, and give them ample pets and belly rubs, or just hang out in a comfy spot together!

How comfortable the dog is around other pets & people (are they reactive, would they be comfortable walking around new areas or do they have a particular route they prefer, do they not like to be around other pets, etc), if there are any usual routines for the dog (meal times, potty break times, play times, etc), medications or treatments the dog needs (if they need any at all), and what makes the dog happiest (being independent & doing their own thing, having lots of attention and cuddles, playing with certain toys, having a quiet and calm environment, etc)
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.
