Pet care experience

Joyful human great w/ cats and dogs

I grew up with large dogs as part of the family, and now have 2 loving cats that bring me endless joy every day. Caring for pets as beloved family members has always been close to my heart. Ensuring they receive proper food, water, and plenty of attention is a top priority for me. After the pandemic, I planned to adopt a dog, but life had other plans, and two cats in need found their way into my home. For the past three years, I’ve cared for them with love, and I still cherish every opportunity to play with and look after the dogs of family and friends. I look forward to bringing that same level of care to your pets!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am not open to hosting any pets at my home, but I am diligent and thoughtful. I will always ensure doors are secure if there are any "escape artists" that like to make a break for the door. I will always make sure leashes/harnesses are secure before leaving your home, and make sure they stay on until we are back inside the home and doors are secure.

Sarah is hands-down the best pet sitter we have ever hired! We left our dog Everest and cat Eli in her care for the weekend, and she provided total peace of mind from start to finish. Her drop-in visit cards were so thorough, thoughtful, and filled with photos. She made sure Everest got plenty of exercise playing fetch (even improvising indoors when it rained!) and gave Eli so much love and playtime with his favorite wand toys. She paid close attention to every detail of their routines, feedings, and treats. We came home to very happy, relaxed pets.

We are so fortunate to have found Sarah on Rover! We could not have asked for a more patient and understanding friend to our Tilley, and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy sitter! Great communication and flexibility during her visit, would definitely book her again!

Sarah was fantastic. My girlfriend and I were in a bind before Memorial Day Weekend and we reached out to her. She was very quick with responses and came and met both our dogs the day after we started messaging. She updated us with pictures for every visit daily and even tracked on the app their bathroom updates. One of the pups needs a lot of accommodating with his eating which was no problem for Sarah. She even watered my plants while we were gone, a great added bonus! This was our first time using Rover and we were very nervous but Sarah calmed those nerves. We were able to enjoy our vacation that much more knowing the pups were in good hands. We will 100% be using Sarah moving forward if we ever need help!

Schedule

Currently I work a hybrid work schedule that offers very flexible hours. I am typically not available on Tuesdays and Wednesdays between 8:30 am - 5:30 pm -- but if booking for week of service I may be able to adjust my schedule! In my personal work-from-home life, I take frequent, short breaks to play or cuddle with my pets. I typically go on a long walk each day and would love for my daily walk to include a pet drop-in and/or walk with your dog!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Sarah can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pet has any special needs ahead of time. I'd love to know if they are generally shy or have high energy so I can make my meet and greet a successful and positive experience for everyone!
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.
