Pets

Safety, trust & environment

My home is not suited for anyone’s pets, as my dog is not friendly to other dogs, and my cats are not fond of other cats. However, I will have no problems going to your place.

Samantha took very good care of my pup and kitty and was very good about checking in with me about them while I was out of town.

Samantha was great with Boomer. She kept me informed of how he was doing & made me feel so much better about leaving him. She even understood all his little quirks & he was well taken care of.

Samantha was great and made sure my grumpy and aloof cat got some much needed affection.
