“I have used Amanda for several years now. She was my everyday dog walker/sitter during the week while I was at work. The past two years I have had her stay at house while my family and I were on vacation. I totally trust Amanda with my entrance code, which by the way I will not change since her last stay. Why would I? I have totally trust in Amanda. My 3 dogs and my cat adore her. She is top notch the best! She is my go to when last minute things come up and I need someone to let my puos out, or I need her to stay an entire week. She will not disappoint and I can guarantee your animals will love her! I know mine do.”
12. Samantha S.
“1,000% recomend Sam! This was my first time using this app. So I was a little apprehensive. I was leaving for a week and needed someone to watch my three cats.. my fur babies. As soon as I met Sam, I knew I chose the right person. She was warm great personality, big smile! I went away for a week, and Sam was on point checked in with pictures and updates every visit. By the third visit, my cats had warmed up to her and allowed her to pet them which warmed my heart! I felt so happy that I found a pet care giver, who could make my pets, feel safe, warm, and loved! thank you so much, Sam! I’ll be using you real soon again! 😀🐈⬛🐈⬛🐈⬛”
