“Scott was INCREDIBLE with my three Rhodesian Ridgebacks. I hadn't even made it to the airport before I received the first of many frequent updates. Here I was worrying about them and they'd already settled in and were napping. It made it SO much easier to step on the plane knowing they were comfortable AND in good hands. And I could tell that the entire visit went well because when I got home they were completely relaxed and there was no "post trip cling". Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!”

20. Omar M.
“Omar is truly a pet whisperer! He took care of our three pets (one French Bulldog and two cats—one of whom is very shy and the other epileptic and requires medication three times a day) and did an absolutely amazing job. Omar has a magical way of connecting with animals that is unmatched. All of our pets adored him! He followed all of our instructions to the letter, keeping our pets’ routine intact, and sent us plenty of videos and photos, so we could see them happy and well taken care of. We’ve never felt so comfortable leaving our pets with someone while traveling, but Omar made it so easy. He is a special person who genuinely loves animals, and it’s clear that they feel the same way about him. His ability to bond with them is something we’ve never seen before. We are thrilled to recommend him 200% as our official pet sitter from now on. Thank you, Omar, for doing such an outstanding job. You’ve earned our complete trust, and we are so grateful!”
