Information Sarah Y. would like to know about your pet

Some important information to let me know about your pet is any medical prescriptions or conditions they may have. Whether they like people and other animals is a must know if we will be walking or playing in the public as well.

A typical day

Every dog and cats personality can differ so what I like to do depends on each individual pet. For high energy dogs I love to go for walks or even jogs with some dogs. I also enjoy parks or fenced in backyards for fetch or playing with toys. For more low energy pets I love to snuggle up and watch a show or movie.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of pets my entire life for as long as I can remember. Anything from horses to rabbits. I also have 5 years of veterinary assistant/tech experience at a small animal veterinary clinic. I’m experienced and comfortable giving pets their medications, injections, nail trims, etc.

Sarah is an absolute godsend!! She was able to take care of Dean over the weekend on such short notice—literally night before. She was diligent in following all care instructions, sent pictures every day (so grateful), and was respectful of my home. Will definitely be rebooking if we need drop in visits in the future!

Sarah has always been someone I could count on a trust to watch/dog sit my husky Ava. Sarah has worked with many animals including horses. She is very sweet and cautious when it comes to animals. Sarah has also worked for vet offices as well. She is very experienced.

Sarah is just incredible when it comes to taking care of our fur children! Bailey and Jango are pretty spoiled and highly energetic, and Sarah totally embraces it. She is super trustworthy and caring, and we’ll definitely be using her again!

Sarah watched over 3 of my animals while I was on a vacation. Sarah was diligent in making sure all 3 dogs got PLENTY of exercise, as well as played with them and wore them out. I have high energy dog breeds so it was very important they had their exercise. Sarah communicated with me in a clear and concise manner with what she was going to be doing with the dogs every day, and gave us frequent updates. We also learned that Sarah has extensive experience as a Vet Tech, which gave us a peace of mind that she really knows how to handle our furry friends.

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.
