Availability
As a business owner of a coaching/therapy practice with appointments ran remotely from my home, my schedule is VERY flexible. Everything I do in my life, I have the freedom of making my own schedule, so I will always be able to expertly plan and schedule for the perfect visits for your babies!

About Sarah W.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
At my own home, safety with my babies is of the utmost importance and I take it just as seriously for your babies in your home. As mentioned under 'experience', I am acutely programmed to come and go through doors with safety, awareness, and security of your cats being the first thing that I'm thinking about. I have to be this way 30+ times a day every day of my life in my own home since there are some personalities in this family who are escape artists and mischief makers lol! If you leave any safety instructions or preferences, I understand the importance of following them to a tee.
Information Sarah W. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your cat/kitten has any special needs, if there are any safety/security precautions about anything specific regarding your home or handling of your babies, if your baby has any preferences in how I do anything, or if there is a specific way you would like me to do anything while I'm there! I will always follow your instructions to a tee.
A typical day
I would love to provide play time/enrichment with any favorite toys you let me know about, give scritches/pets, treats, or simply be there if your baby/babies have separation anxiety. Most of my babies at home love a laser pointer that I have and I can bring that upon request!

Cat mom,Billy The Kidden volunteer!
Pet care experience
Hello all! I am a cat mom in a multi-cat household. 3 of my babies are former ferals! (They lived in my yard/neighborhood and I was their mom from afar for awhile before rescuing them.) The baby in my profile picture with me was once 100% feral and today, you wouldn't even believe she ever was. We definitely have a soul connection and she now runs up to me, cries for me, and is always at my side. Rescuing, socializing, and being the mom to ferals has taught me so much. I'm very good at making skittish/shy cats comfortable and at ease and I also never push boundaries and can care and provide love from a distance on their terms. I'm programmed to be aware of coming and going through doors since I'm the mom of a multi-cat household and we have some escape artists in our family! The safety and security of your baby/babies is something that would be impossible to leave my mind and you can rest assured that this will always be provided by me. Being the mom of multiple cats, I have a keen understanding that every cat is an individual with a different personality and that should be respected. Every cat deserves to be loved for who they are❤️ In my spare time, I am a frequent volunteer for Billy The Kidden Rescue and I caretake an ever-changing bunch until the ultimate goal of adoption into a loving home is reached - so I am very accustomed to getting to know and caretake new cats and kittens all the time and I adjust my approach for them all as individuals. If you have multiple cats, I'm obviously very used to caring for many at a time, as I am sometimes watching up to 15 play together/get out-of-kennel time at the rescue locations as well as being a cat mom to my own at home. I'm 38 years old and I selected '30 years of experience' because I grew up with cats but I had cats before the age of 8. When I visit your home, you can expect me to be respectful, OCD clean, and leave the surroundings as if I was never there. I think one of the most important things is that I bring a passion and love into what I do. One of my purposes in life is animal welfare and specifically cats❤️❤️❤️
Reviews
We booked Sarah somewhat last minute for a weekend holiday. It ended up being the kind of trip where we didn't have much cell service and many obligations. Additionally, my 2 seniors had not had a Rover drop-in in many years, and my younger cat has always been either with me or my family. Needless to say I was wishing and hoping for the best, and Sarah more than came through! She left thorough detailed notes after each drop-in, maintained some normalcy for everybody, understood our instructions, and I could just tell by the photos that my babies warmed up to her right away and felt at ease with each drop-in visit, which then put us at ease. If you are someone who pampers or spoils your fur babies, and in need of somebody trustworthy and reliable to care for them, Sarah is the Rover for you!
Sarah was absolutely amazing! She followed every instruction I left, respected my home, and truly went above and beyond. She brought her own toys to keep my cats entertained, which I really appreciated, and she kept me updated with excellent communication throughout the entire booking. I loved receiving the many pictures she sent because they gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my pets and treated them like her own. I came home to happy cats, and everything was exactly as I had left it. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. I will definitely be booking with Sarah again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable, thoughtful, and caring!
Very friendly and great with the kitty 10/10. :)
Excellent cat sitter. Sarah was a great communicator and my very shy cats came out to greet her and get pets. She is a cat whisperer and would book again!
