“Stari was awesome with my high energy 2 year old boy, Charlie. Despite short notice for booking the walks, she was dependable & easy to communicate with & took him out even in bad weather with his little coat on. She gave daily updates & pictures, which really eased my mind while I was caring for my daughter after surgery. I will definitely use Stari again when I need help with Charlie!”
