Availability

I work from home 4 days of the work week and even on the day that I’m away, pets are never left alone for more than 5-6 hours a day, which is rare at that. I walk our dog daily and there is plenty of time to go out and play in a fenced yard multiples times during the day.

Sarah was dependable, professional and we appreciated her flexibility. I would definitely recommend her and would use her services again.

One of my dogs got diarrhea the day before I left and Sarah provided excellent care--keeping me updated and (unfortunately for her) cleaning up several accidents. Thanks to Sarah I was still able to enjoy my bachelorette weekend knowing my pups were safe.

Sarah was very communicative and sent lots of photos. I was also so glad my dog Nova was able to run around and play a bunch with their dog Roxy while I was away. Thanks again!
