We had such a great experience with our sitter Sarah! She has such a warm, charismatic presence that immediately put us at ease. Our puppy is usually very shy and slow to warm up to new people, but she was incredibly attentive and patient with him. Because of that, he quickly began to trust her. We really appreciated the care and effort she put into making him feel comfortable and safe. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would happily book with her again!

Sarah was truly nothing short of PHENOMENAL!!! there are no words to describe the love and care in which she provide provided to our Roan while we were away. She sent so many pictures and updates and our boy was so, so happy with her. Our boy ate, slept, and took his medicine like an absolute champ with Sarah here, which are true signs of his comfort. And I had pictures, videos, and stories about endless playtime, walks, and snuggles. It is incredibly rare to find someone you can trust will take care of your pet the way that you would and Sarah is this person… 10 stars out of five for Sarah. The icing on the cake was coming home to a house that was literally cleaner than when we left it. I cannot describe the peace of mind. We had leaving Roan with Sarah while we traveled. I would recommend her to absolutely anybody with zero hesitation… Unless your travel dates conflict with ours ;)). Thank you so much, Sarah, and we can’t wait to have you back!!!!

We had such a great experience with Sarah! She stayed at our home for four nights with our senior pup, Kuma, and I truly couldn’t have asked for better care. Kuma requires medication and specific feeding instructions, and she handled everything thoughtfully and responsibly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing our older girl was in capable hands. She sent regular updates, communicated clearly throughout the stay, and took wonderful care of both Kuma and our home. You can tell she’s attentive and genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I would absolutely have her back in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter.

Sarah did drop in visits to provide my pup with sub cutaneous fluids each day I was out of town. I had already scheduled a sitter who was a great fit for us but wasn’t comfortable with giving my girl fluids. Anyway, Sarah to the rescue! She made me feel so comfortable that my senior pup with special needs was in good hands! I would definitely book her again for any service!
