Samara was great with Luna. She took great care of Luna with walks and keeping me updated with anything that came up. I would recommend her for pet sitting.

We were in a serious pinch trying to find a last-minute dog sitter, and Samara came through like an absolute pro! From the moment we connected, her communication was prompt, clear, and reassuring—which made leaving our pup in her care so much easier. Not only did she step in on short notice, but she also went above and beyond in every way. Our dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly loved while we were away. On top of that, our home was spotless when we returned—cleaner than we left it! It’s rare to find someone so dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely lovely to work with. We can't thank Samara enough and will 100% be reaching out again. Highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!

Samara has pet sat for me several times. From 2 days to 7 days. I have 2 dogs and 2 birds. My one dog has diabetes and required injections twice a day and a special diet and eating schedule. My other dog has separation anxiety. The birds needed to be covered at night and uncovered in the morning and fed and water changed daily. I never worried about leaving my pets in Samara's care. I have known Samara for 9 years and she takes good care of my animals, and she also stayed at my house during the time she was caring for my animals. She was very responsible with keeping the house clean.
