Hi my name is Sarah I have lived in the surrounding areas of maidstone for over 40 years for the last 15 years I've held down a stressful job but in the last five years I had to look after my mother with dementia and unfortunately this got worse as the disease proceeded I took a year out to look after her from work, as time went by it came clear that she needed special care eventually I had to make the hardest decision to put her in a nursing home, with that I went back to work full time and quickly realise that I could not deal with the stress of being trapped within four walls so again I found myself making another big decision and that was to leave work,
I'm a caring person I have grown up with family pets all my life from a child to an adult, unfortunately, I do not have dogs now instead I have two cats Alfie and Mowgli I also take my daughters dog out for walks regularly and I discovered that I do I enjoy doing this

Sarah kept us up to date every day and we even came home to bread, milk and flowers! Such a lovely thoughtful touch!
The cats were well looked after and greeted Sarah every morning by the front door.
I cannot thank Sarah enough for making Pip’s holiday a stress free and uneventful one. We came home after a super break in Scotland to a cat who looked and sounded well looked after. Her coat shone and after telling us all about it, she was off out in the garden not worrying about us at all. After a bad previous experience it was a relief to us to find her so relaxed. We can now plan ahead for more holidays and will be contacting Sarah again.
