Safety, trust & environment

I am great at getting dogs in and out of kennels, working all different kinds of harnesses, and administering medications. I will keep a close eye on your pet and make sure to get all their energy out!

Information Sterling S. would like to know about your pet

It’s important to know the dog’s temperament so I know how to approach, as well as if they have any special needs, medications, diets, etc.

A typical day

For the dogs with high energy, I like to jog with them on my walks and make sure they get plenty of play time. If there are any parks nearby, I love to take them there and let them sniff around.

Sterling was an excellent sitter. He took care of our cats, dogs, horses, and aquarium while we were away over the Thanksgiving holiday. He sent us pictures and updates of our pets and was great with our four month old puppy who is a handful and still in house training mode. Our Great Dane is on allergy and heart medication and Sterling handled that too. He wasn’t afraid to ask questions if he needed information. The house was clean and in order when we arrived home and the dogs seemed sad to see him go. We will hire him again in a heartbeat.

Sterling immediately put us at total ease while housesitting and watching our dog during Christmas. There's always a nervousness you get when you go on vacation and leave your dog with a new sitter -- I felt absolutely NONE of that nervousness with Sterling! Extremely quick to respond, sends cute pictures and updates every day, left the house completely spotless. Easiest recommendation I've ever given! We will absolutely hire Sterling again.

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.
