It is my pleasure to highly recommend Sam Moricz as a house and pet caretaker! It has always been a pleasure having Sam as a housesitter. Super respectful and quite responsive. As a bonus, he'll check in with me regularly and sends cute pictures of my pets. We travel a lot so we have hired others in the past before but no one like Sam. I would 10/10 recommend Sam Moricz as a housesitter.
