About: *LOCATED IN AUSTIN, TX* I’ve been a dog lover all my life. I hold experience in bathing, walking, and everyday care for dogs! Big dogs, small dogs, high energy puppies, or slow and steady, all dogs have big hearts and deserve to be appreciated. I currently work a 9-5 from Monday to Thursday, but I am able to use my lunch break for check ins. My evenings are free and I am available on weekends at any time. Also, I’m good with squeezing in last minute walks. Please leave a detail description of how you like your fur baby cared for. I want to give them all the love and attention but respectfully to your rules.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for our Huskies, Thanos and Kai, while we were away on vacation. From the very beginning, Sara went above and beyond. She took the time to bond with them, gave them lots of love and attention, and made sure their routines were followed perfectly — from feeding to picking up after them. One of the highlights was how thoughtful she was with sending us regular updates and the sweetest pictures. It was so reassuring to see our boys happy and relaxed in her care. Her communication was top-notch, and we always felt in the loop, which gave us peace of mind the entire trip. Sara is responsible, kind, and clearly has a special way with animals. We’re so grateful for the care she gave Thanos and Kai, and we’ll absolutely be reaching out to her again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Sam was amazing with my fur babies. I can see they really felt safe around her. She just gave so much attention to them. I would definitely recommend and use again.”

Southwest pet parents share their Rover experiences
An absolute sweetheart and was very attentive to the needs of my cat, King. Always would keep in communication regarding his well being. She even noticed that he wasnt eating much out of his new automatic feeder to which she put some food for him in his old bowl which then prompted him to eat! Highly recommend her and will definitely be booking her again :)
