Sarah P.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Highly Recommend Sarah! Sarah has watched my dog, Princess, on multiple occasions — I’d estimate around 8 to 10 times — and every experience has been nothing short of amazing. She’s stayed at my apartment while I was away and always took great care of both my home and Princess. I’ve always come back to a clean, orderly space and, most importantly, a happy and relaxed pup. Princess can be pretty energetic, so it’s been a huge relief knowing she’s in good hands with someone who genuinely loves dogs and stays active. I never worry about whether Princess is getting enough exercise or attention — Sarah goes above and beyond every time. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring dog sitter, I can’t recommend Sarah enough. She’s been an absolute lifesaver!”
