Pet + house sitter extraordinaire! :)

40, Legal writer (Work from home)

Hi! And thank you for your consideration!
I have owned and cared for all sizes and breeds of dog for most of my life. I am experienced in handling and caring for dogs with all sorts of behavioural issues and personalities. I have worked as a professional dog and house-sitter for the past several years on Rover.... where I have only 5-star reviews. :) Prior to that, I have also worked in a doggy day-care and have cared for up to 15 dogs at a time. I have also completed a pet first aid course, and am comfortable giving most kinds of meds. Lastly, I have just completed year one of a two year vet tech program, and am taking a gap year to volunteer and travel.
And I don't just love dogs! I have owned and cared for many cats, hamsters, birds and fish along the way as well. Occasionally, I even branch out from companion animals and do a bit of farm-sitting for my sister on her hobby farm, where I'll spend some days caring for her horses, cows, pigs, goats, dogs, cats and gazillion chickens.
I am also very tidy and quiet. I don't smoke or murder people.
I work remotely full-time, so that means I will need reliable wifi, however that also means that I am available to hang out with pets and take walk/bathroom breaks throughout the day. I have a flexible work schedule.
For longer stays, I prefer to bring my child (10-lbs, 15-year-old miniature pinscher named Paisa) with me on sits. She is extremely well-behaved and friendly with all people and all kinds of animals.
A little more about me: I am an avid traveler and adventure-junky. I have backpacked through over 40 countries, and I like to spend a good chunk of my summer out camping, hiking and trekking. Most recently, I spent 2.5 months in Colombia and went for multi-day treks in the Colombian jungle (4 days to find the Lost City), and in the Colombia Andes (4 days to climb a 5300 meter volcano with a glacier at the top!).
Thank you for considering me to come stay at your house!

From someone who is an overly trusting person, and her partner who is not, we found through HSC the very most perfect sitter, ever. From first contact Sarah instilled in us a sense of confidence and security for the well being of our four legged family members. She sent us pix as well as daily check ins while we were away. And we came home to find our gardens thriving, our house clean and tidy, and four very well cared for and content critters. (two horses, a dog and a cat) Sarah stayed at ours ... MORE

Safe house!

There is nothing more secure than having people at home while you're away. Get a house sitter.
