Sarah was a great host, The home was very clean and nice. A very cozy home to stay in and everything was very accurate to the photos. The environment was safe for my puppy as well, no high beds or couches, no cords out either. Sarah responded fast to any questions we had for her and she was very friendly. Definitely will book again for our next stay!!
