"We first met Sarah at a Sublime Canine Puppy Class and always noticed how our very active puppy would listen and actually be calm around her. We never forgot that! It is a huge decision to let someone take your dog and to also give them the keys to your house. When we first started thinking about getting Quinn some more activity during the week, we wanted Sarah to be part of the solution. We really hoped she’d say yes to taking Quinn because he can be a bit of a handful. Luckily, he was a fit for her and her group and we could not be happier. We really appreciated that she got to know Quinn and his habits on the first few hikes and made sure he was with the right mix of other dogs. For us, that meant a lot that everyone’s dog was comfortable and able to enjoy their hike and that safety and fun is what Sarah balanced out (among many other factors).
 

Sarah is amazing. Period. End of story. We implicitly trust her and know that Quinn will be safe with her. Quinn is always so happy to see her and it’s like we don’t exist when Sarah’s around. He cannot wait to get going on his hike so much so that he even knows the sound of her car pulling up outside the house! Sarah is also a talented photographer and we always look forward to seeing what Quinn and the crew have been up to while they adventure with her. From her photos and videos, we always know if Quinn will need a bath as he loves his mud puddles... Sarah is so approachable, reliable, kind, and honest. Conversations with her are always fun and funny. She is so knowledgeable and I always appreciate when she drops a tip or two or when we ask for advice. It’s always great to see her and to interact with her.
 

If you are looking for someone to hike your dogs, look no further than Sarah. We highly recommend her as she is the very very best and we couldn’t be happier and neither could Quinn!"

"Sarah is truly wonderful with the dogs she hikes, and I am so thankful that my lil Ripley gets to hang out with her a couple of times a week. I trust Sarah entirely with my crazy puppy and I know that Ripley is having the time of her LIFE when she is hanging out with her dog friends enjoying off-leash adventures. I love seeing the photos and videos that Sarah posts on her Instagram and Facebook pages, too. It's great to see the silly faces she captures and I can see for myself that my pup truly is enjoying herself. My dog nearly does back flips when Sarah arrives to pick her up - she's always way more excited to see Sarah than me! Sarah has also been sooo wonderful for training and general dog advice. Whenever I have a question about Ripley's behavior or dog-things in general, I know I can just shoot Sarah a message and she'll provide awesome advice. She's extremely easy to talk to. She even kept in mind that we were starting agility classes with Ripley and gave us some tips about how to make Ripley a little less crazy during class, including letting us borrow a harness so we had better control of her (she flails!).
 

I trust Sarah 110% and I talk about how incredible she is all of the time with anyone that will listen. I recommend her to *everyone* - even to people who I know aren't in her serviced areas, because I trust that Sarah can point them in the direction of a dog walker/hiker that is just as excellent as she is. Not all dog walkers are the same. We came to Sarah when I started feeling uneasy about the first dog walker we hired for Ripley, and I've been so happy ever since."

"We met Sarah over a year ago when our boy Max was a wee puppy. Max was scared of everything including walks, people, the car, other animals and loud noises. Then, we met Sarah! She started working with Max and provided many tips and tricks on how to become a confident, happy dog. When he was old enough, he started on her group hikes. She took the time to put him in a group that he would do well in and now he’s comfortable in any of her groups. Not only does she provide much needed, fun hikes but he is also learning on her hikes through training, while interacting with other dogs. Now, Max is super confident, happy, well exercised and very social. On the days when Sarah is coming to get him he sits in the window and can’t wait for her to arrive. His whole body wiggles when he sees her.
 

Sarah is champion of the underdog, loves all animals, and is just great person - we are so lucky to have found her. She’s personable, reliable and trustworthy. I don’t give anyone access to my house but her. She is also very compassionate and truly loves her doggie clients. Last summer, Max got very sick and was home recovering for four weeks. She dropped by to visit him with yummy treats and gave us lots of moral support.
 

Our favourite part of the day is watching the videos she posts for us to see the fun Max was having during the hikes. And, all the best pictures we have of him were taken by Sarah. She is a very talented photographer - such a bonus! If Max hears her voice or whistle, he comes running and tries to find her. We highly recommend Sarah if you’re looking for someone to help with your fur babies. She is the very best!"
