“I have known Noah Cildir for 4 years now, and during that time he has demonstrated a level of love and passion for animals and their care that I have not seen from anyone else. He is kind, responsible, and informed on pet care. Even though I thought I knew a lot about animal care, he still could find areas where I was lacking, and my pets benefited greatly! Out of all the pet owners I have known over my life, he has demonstrated a passion for improving the lives of his pets the greatest and because of his love for animals I know that he will do that for others pets as well.”

18. Cora L.

“We had a wonderful experience with Cora who watched our 2.5 year-old goldendoodle for 2 weeks while we were traveling. Our dog recently had knee surgery and we had to change the dog-sitting plans we had in place due to the limitations during her rehabilitation. We were worried about finding a pet sitter while our pup was still early in the recovery process, but luckily, we found Cora. She was completely comfortable with our dog's surgical recovery and physical therapy needs as she had prior experience with dogs recovering from surgery. Cora was very organized, kind, thoughtful, and gentle with our dog throughout their time together. She went absolutely above-and-beyond by taking her to physical therapy as well as doing daily exercises with her. We could not be more grateful since we returned home to a happy pup who was using her recovering leg! She kept us updated throughout our time away with pictures and videos of her progress. We also returned to a lovely, clean house. We would definitely recommend her house-sitting or walking services to others and plan to use Cora again in the future!”
