I was worried that my dog would experience separation anxiety, but Sally sent plenty of pictures showing Sadie having a wonderful time. This eased my concerns immensely and allowed me to focus on my work trip. Sadie even got along with Sally's dog, and Sadie does not like a lot of other dogs. Sally followed all of my instructions and kept in constant contact with me. She was even flexible when my return flight was delayed. Overall, I'm so glad I trusted Sally with my dog, and I would definitely do so again. I would strongly recommend her to any discerning pet parent!”
