Sara is phenomenal! She's the only person I fully trust with my own dog - who needs special care due to behavioral issues. He loves her! Sara is the full package: super savvy; knowledgeable, certified trainer; professionalism; genuine care and passion for every dog she works with; she's the best! You will not be disappointed working with her.

Sara has been walking my most prized possession over 5+ years now. She is one of 3 people I would let walk my dog because she can be difficult at times. The trust I have in Sara is so important and invaluable. I would highly recommend Sara if you want a responsible, trustworthy, hard working dog walker than can also train your dog as well. -Jaime R

Sara is an extremely capable handler with many years of experience and training knowledge. She has been my dog Freyja's best friend since she came into my life 5 years ago as a little puppy. Sara is always so excited to reunite with my Freyja (who just adores her!) and I always get very in depth post visit updates along with many, many pictures of the adventures they had together! I've even come home to find that Sara had taught my dog a few new tricks while I was away! She genuinely loves all the animals that she spends time with and there is never a doubt in my mind that my dog will be safe, happy, and loved with her. As someone that has been working in the pet care business for 7 years, I can see the talent and real love that she has for not just my dog, but every dog and cat that she comes across and she is always responsive and responsible when it comes to her timing, availability, and interactions with other humans. I 100% recommend her!!!
