“Sara was amazing! I had another Rover in place for my trip over the holidays that fell through at the last minute. Sara answered my call for help immediately! (Not kidding — like within 5 minutes) I took Simon to the Vet a few days before I left to find he had an ear infection. Sara had no problem with needing to give him meds. She was a lifesaver. She’s bright and understanding and flexible, and she made sure Simon would get along with the other puppers in the house, introducing them slowly. She took great care of Simon and sent me updates and pictures. Thank you, Sara!!”
