“I couldn't be more delighted with Samantha and her exceptional service. During my visit to my hometown, she not only provided exceptional care for my beloved pets but also tended to my vacant home. Without my request, she went the extra mile by checking on my car and adjusting the lights to create a lived-in appearance. I wholeheartedly and emphatically recommend her. Her commitment felt like it stemmed from genuine care rather than mere compensation.”

19. Sydney K.
“Sydney is without question the biggest dog lover I’ve ever known. Kane & Kreider are her two black labs and they are the goodest of the good boys. Sydney’s love and passion for doggos are only matched by her love of the New York Jets, except her dogs actually love her back. You can trust Sydney to take exceptional care of your dog. She is very active and can take on dogs on walks/runs/jogs. Hiring Sydney to look after your dog is as safe of a bet as the Jets not making the playoffs. Her knowledge, experience, and love of all dogs makes her the perfect person to take care of your fury best friend.”
20. Madeline H.
“Madeline is a responsible and loving caregiver to all types of pets, in particular, but not limited to, dogs and cats. She is sensitive to their emotions, enjoys playing with the pets but realizes when they just need a cuddle and calm. We trust her implicitly with our small dog. Victoria H”
