“Abigail was amazing. She was able to make our anxious dog feel right at home. It was the first time we have left him and didn’t need to worry about him for one second.

Sara took him into her home and not only loved him like it was her own but took him on so many walks, play activities and puppy training. She went far beyond my expectations, nearly to the point where I felt bad taking my puppy home as he was having so much fun! I am so grateful we found Sara!”

She does an excellent job communicating, sending awesome videos and photos, and we always feel like our dog is in the best hands.

Since finding Arlissa, we have never stressed about going out of town and leaving our dog as we know he will have a great time!”

“I really like how well Britany took care of Jasmine! She was able to watch her at the last minute so that I could take a trip to Rio and spend quality time with my daughter. She took pictures of her every day and sent them to me. She even gave her a bath when she got too muddy on one of her walks. I hope to be able to work with her again soon and I would definitely recommend her to everyone!”
