TREASURED TESTIMONIALS!
5 Dalmations? Are you crazy?
Well, I may have been crazy for having that many dogs, but it certainly was a "no-brainer" for Sally Anderson. The death of my life partner who was home taking care of our dogs left me frantic and alone to care for 5 "kids". What was I going to do? A referral put Sally in my life and my dogs in perfect care. Sally a true animal lover handled everything expected and unexpected in the most loving and compassionate way. Sally was also there with me when 3 of my 5 kids took ill and required extra special attention and care. Letting a stranger in my house was not easy for me but Sally proved to be the best possible care-provider I could have asked for. I will be forever truly grateful.
Bryan Nendze and
Winston, Fergie and passed (Wheezer, Sophie and Dottie)
Sally has been my dogwalker for several years
and I really don't know what I'd do without her. She is extraordinarily reliable and dedicated to both dog and human customer service, as well as being one of the nicest people I know. My dogs completely adore her and I trust her absolutely with them. Before Sally, I had pretty poor experiences with some of the larger dogwalking companies - a revolving door of unreliable and untrained walkers and little communication from the companies or the walkers. Once I found Sally, my only fear has been that she might decide to stop walking dogs! I lost two dogs in the last couple years, both of whom Sally took care of in their old age, and she was so great with these special-needs dogs. When I lost my first dog, Sally came to the vet, brought him McMuffins, and sat with us until the end. It's hard to imagine someone with more compassion and dedication to her clients.
Sally also house/dog-sits for me regularly, and I can't recommend that service highly enough. She is flexible with her schedule and has often made herself available at short-notice. Her rates are comparable to (if not actually better than) boarding at a kennel, my dogs get to stay in their own house with someone they're comfortable with, and my house doesn't stand empty! This is a really excellent thing, whether you're traveling for a just a few nights or taking a long vacation.

I have used Sally for some time and she is the simply the best!
She is always on time, my dogs love her and she does wonderful home care when I go out of town. I think my dogs like Sally more than me, which is a great sign. My advice: hire her and you will love her!
Alley Ballard
Leaving my puppy over night for the first time was hard!
But I felt perfectly safe leaving her in the hands of Sally. She was on her own slumber party with lots of play time, walks and no caging. Sally isn`t just a dog sitter, she`s a dog lover! I trust her 100% with my Dakota.
