Ensuring pets are safe and loved!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with big dogs for my whole life and now that I have moved out and am in college- I really miss giving my dog attention and loving him! Rover has ended up being the perfect way for me to interact with and take care of others people’s dogs. I always treat them and love them the way I do my own! I am very detail oriented and responsible and I take the safety and care of pets very seriously. I just graduated college in December 2021 with a degree in Neuroscience! I did school full time and when classes were fully online I decided to start Rover as soon as I found out about it! When my classes moved back to in person I made sure to space them out so I could still have time to walk dogs during breaks. I live alone with no other pets and I keep my apartment clean and there would be no hazard to any pet if they are to stay with me. I am also pretty flexible when it comes to going to other homes as long as I have some heads up. Overall I can be pretty flexible and I try to keep my calendar up to date with available services! I am looking forward to working with people and their lovable pets!

My dog Myles loves Sarah! She’s patient with his exuberance and takes great care of him when I’m away.

Our second time having Sarah watch our cats. She is so great and I’m so happy to know that we have found a reliable sitter to watch our fur babies. We will definitely keep having her watch our cats for future travels.

This was Myles’ second stay with Sarah and he had a great time. She seemed to really enjoy having Myles there which makes me feel like he must’ve been well cared for and happy. Thanks Sarah for taking such good care of him!

Information Sarah V. would like to know about your pet

Anything the owner thinks I should know about the pet- allergies, pills or injections I should give the pet, what they like or don’t like, does the pet have any problems that I can help with by doing or not doing certain things (ie playing soothing music for them if they have anxiety), how often does the dog like to be walked, etc.

A typical day

I can walk your dog around the neighborhood and they can see the beach a couple blocks away if they enjoy that! I can also take them to nearby open grass fields. I enjoy playing with dogs and doing whatever they like to do! Any dog with me will get all the attention they want and more! If they would prefer to relax and just chill out there is ample space for them to do so while my quiet apartment offers a break from the bustling city life.
