We looked forward to her updates every day because she sent great pictures and it was good to know our cats were getting playtime while we were out.”

We had such peace of mind knowing they were dropping in to check on our sick pup while we were both at work, and all of our dogs (even our shy hound) loved them during the meet and greet.

“Sarah is my daughter and she has always had a great love of animals and does nothing but show them love. Even difficult and scared animals are respected and shown great patience by Sarah to earn their trust. I fostered dogs in the past in my home and Sarah is always the first one to jump in and help care for the animals including cleaning litter boxes, and cleaning up after them. She is very responsible. I highly recommend Sarah to care for any animals and I am confident she will do a great job.”
