I have known Sarah for almost 20 years. We’ve worked together in the past and, even though we don’t see each other often, she is the kind of person you can reconnect with instantly, as the trust and comfort are always there. That alone says a lot about her character. Sarah has always been incredibly honest, responsible, and dependable. Her passion for animals and all living things is truly special, and it shows in the care she provides. I trust her more than anyone outside of my immediate family (and honestly, even more than some of them, haha) to take care of both my home and my dog. Last year, we trusted Sarah to house-sit and care for our dog for over a week, and I genuinely had zero worries while we were away. I knew she would treat our home with the same care and respect as her own, and that our dog would be safe, loved, and well looked after at all times. Our dog, Nova, is five years old and naturally very nervous, especially around other dogs. From the moment they met, Nova absolutely loved Sarah and wouldn’t leave her side. This was incredibly reassuring for us, especially because we had previously had a very negative experience with doggy daycare, which made leaving our dog extremely stressful. Nova is our baby, and I normally feel a lot of anxiety when we’re apart. Sarah completely changed that experience. She sent regular updates and photos every day, which made our vacation so much more enjoyable because we never had to worry about our dog or our home. Seeing the adventures they went on, the exercise Nova got, and the genuine happiness on her face honestly melted our hearts. Nova truly lived her best life while Sarah was caring for her... to the point where I think she was genuinely sad when Sarah left! We absolutely plan on booking Sarah again this year and every time she is available. The peace of mind that comes from knowing your home and your dog are in such capable, loving, and trustworthy hands is truly priceless!! I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough and would trust her without hesitation!

Anja, was bit of a diva today and Sarah was very patient with Anja. This is Anja’s first walk with anyone other than family here. Thank you Sarah, you were just so lovely and kind .

My 13 year old boy Ringo is the light of my life. The people which I would trust him with could be counted on one hand - Sarah accounts for 3 of those fingers. When your pets are with her, your pets are at home. Sarah has made our last few trips a lot less scary - eliminating a lot of our worry, providing updates and photos before having to ask, working with our boy and all his quirks, and always leaving the place seemingly cleaner than she found it. If you’ve read this far, 20/10 recommend!
