About: 🥰 Now retired from Corporate America- I finally get to do what I love!! If you’re looking for Quality, Responsible and Experienced care for your pets- look no further! I have 45+ years experience with dogs, cats and horses. 🐴 🐈 🐶 Prior Volunteer @Agoura Animal Shelter I’ve been in love with pets since I was born. I’ve had many dogs over the years. I was raised with Dobermans, and had 2 of my own as an adult, in addition to a German Shepherd, Husky, Lab mix, 2 Min Pins and now, a Terrier/mix rescued from the meat trade in So. Korea. I’ve had one or more cats at a time since the day I was born (feral), and at one point, we rescued a pregnant kitty that had 4 kittens, which we kept and all lived long and cherished lives. My last kitty, “Little Girl”, was found by the grooms at the barn @ 3 weeks old. She was so wild, that she chewed the nipple off the bottle, and the Vet said it would never work! She recently passed at 19 years old, from CKD/Hyperthyroidism, which we both valiantly fought for 4 yrs. She was my soul cat- that I will miss for the rest of my life.💔 I’m an Equestrian- Horses are my passion! I’ve competed and owned horses for over 30 years, and have extensive knowledge of their care. I’m Insured and Pet 1st Aid/CPR Certified. I have experience medicating pets (ie:cats with Hyperthyroidism/CKD, etc dogs with pancreatitis, etc). Specialize in Senior pets. I know what it’s like to have to leave your beloved fur-babies home, especially if they aren’t feeling well! Whether they’re in tip top health, or in need of a little extra attention due to a medical condition, You can rest assured, that they will have the best care! I’m home full time now, and so available to meet the commitment and responsibilities of caring for your special fur-babies. Because feeding/walking and playing take time and attention- and every pet has its own unique and individual needs, sometimes they just need a little extra love and companionship❤️ Safety is my #1 priority! I will always ensure that your pets are safe, your home is secure and there is nothing within reach that could cause them harm. Additionally, walks are always done considering the environment, other pets and their proximity to your pet and the demeanor of both. No risks are ever taken.

About: I am a responsible and trustworthy pet care provider with over 20 years of experience. I grew up with large dogs, small dogs, and cats in my home and currently have two dogs of my own. Additionally, I am experienced with puppies, seniors, and dogs with disabilities/medical needs. I know first-hand how stressful leaving your pets can be and I am dedicated to providing a safe, loving, and fun environment for your fur baby! I am very flexible with my schedule. I work remotely so I am able to provide care to your pet(s) during the day and at night. I am available during the week and on weekends. I am able to adapt to whatever needs you or your pet may have in your home and am fantastic at following directions and schedules. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.

About: I've owned pets for the past 33 years as an adult. (I was also raised with cats and dogs growing up.) As an empty nester I'm enjoying this phase in my life caring for other people's furry family members as well. I am a pet owner, so I treat other people's pets as if they were my own. I am caring, reliable, trustworthy, responsible, and have A LOT of pet experience. I look for someone like myself when hiring a petsitter. I lead a very active lifestyle, usually I start my day at the gym or dance class then pick up dog walking jobs immediately following, mid-day or evening time. I do not have a job outside of the house besides petsitting. I have a completely fenced in large backyard. There is no way a dog could get out of my yard and I keep animals inside with me anyway, just go out for playtime and potty. I am aware that some pets like to try and escape so am extremely cautious when petsitting. I am thorough, clean up all dog poop and litter boxes, refill water bowls and feed animals as needed, give treats and/or medications as needed, and take dogs for walks. Currently I do not offer boarding because I am having home renovations being done and it would be disruptive/stressful for animals, but do plan on adding boarding at a later date.

About: I am new to Rover, but I am not new to animal care! I have 20 years of experience as a pet parent, and hands on experience as a volunteer and staff member at an animal rescue where my responsibilities included walking, feeding, daily care, basic grooming, playtime and enrichment for large and small dogs and animals with special needs. I enjoy all stages of animal development (from puppyhood to senior life). Should your pet(s) have medical needs, I am proficient in: • Oral medication administration • Ointments and drops medication administration • Injected medication administration • Subcutaneous (SubQ) fluids therapy • First Aid As a dog mom, I too have been through the process of finding a house and/or pet sitter I trust. I understand the importance of communication and updates, cute pictures and/or videos, and most importantly knowing that your home is being taken care of and your pet(s) are safe and secure and in the loving care of a competent and reliable sitter. Whether caring for clients' pets or assisting with rescue dogs, my commitment to animal welfare is unwavering. 🐾 As your house and pet sitter, during my stay, I will be a reliable presence in your home. Daily updates, including photos and/or videos, will keep you informed and provide you with complete peace of mind. To ensure the best possible care, I will ask for information about daily routines, including your pets activity levels, social behavior with both people and other animals, and any ongoing care or monitoring that may be required.

About: What's sets me apart is my Love and Passion for both Cats and Dogs. I attended and graduated Charter College in Oxnard, CA with an overall 3.9 and have quality teacher recommendations. While attending College I was manager of a High-End pet for store in Thousand Oaks called Protein for Pets until they had to shut down to COVID. After those two things, I was blessed with a night time job at Dioji Athletic K-9 Resort in Agoura Hills. I quickly became manager and my duties included the quality care of canines overnight while they were uncrated unless instructed by the owners themselves. I left that job because I wanted to further expand my resume while still trying to slowing chip away at student loans before I put myself into the Veterinary World. I recently left my 3 years job as a night night manager for Dioji Athletic K-9 resort in Agoura Hills. I left to further fulfill and expand my resume while still stating around my field which is Veterinary Assistant. I own a Russian Blue at home and she gets the best care. I believe animals help give us a reflection upon our own lives if we're willing to look for the similarities. As so, my cat gets as good as life and quality of food as I give myself. My love extends into not only my pets but every pet I touch. God has blessed me with the love for Cats and Dogs.. I guess you can call me St. Francis.

“Sara is an excellent pet sitter! We entrust her with the care of our senior dog, Jay. He is treated as if he were her pet. It is a great pleasure to have her take such good care of our pets, and I greatly appreciate her thoughtfulness. Having Sara care for my pets is everything that I look for in a pet sitter. She's warm, friendly, and responsible.”

Not only is Eric a good dog daddy to his two sweet boy pups, but he is an excellent “uncle” to my miniature dachshund. I have a sensitive, shy dog that I’m always nervous to leave because he gets anxiety, and because I worry about him getting ivdd. Eric is so good about making sure my boy is safe and and at ease - my dog loves him! You can tell Eric has a genuine love of animals, and that he takes the responsibility of his own pets, and those of others very seriously. I’d be happy to trust Eric with my dog any time!”
