Samantha & Sean were life-savers when I was called to a 2-week work trip on the West Coast. They gave extraordinary care to my dog and provided regular updates and communication. I give them my highest recommendation!

Sam is so sweet and took such good care of both our cat and dog! She treated them like her own pets and sent us daily updates while we were away. We’ll definitely be booking with Sam again in the future!

House Sitting • Jun 05, 2018

Sam did an AMAZING job watching Nari when we were gone. She kept us posted with daily updates on their activities which included walks, dog park trips, and backyard playtime! I always get nervous about having people watch her because she needs a TON of exercise and is very much a working dog but it was such a relief to know that she was being taken care of by somebody who understands that different dogs have different needs. We have already planned to book our next sitting with Sam!!
