6. Sarah B.

“When you travel and have to leave your fur babies at home it's always a very scary, high anxiety moment. With Sarah, we were SO comfortable and knew that our fur babies would be taken care of. She came and met us before we left for our getaway to make sure it was a fit on both sides. She took care of them just like they were her own. She sent us daily updates and even sent us pictures. I can't say enough about Sarah, we will definitely have her watch our babies again. If you have any doubts about leaving your pets with someone else then hire Sarah because she is too notch. Thank you Sarah”
