To Whom it May Concern:

​

This letter is to recommend Jill Besterfield, and Besterfield Group, for dog/house sitting in the best way possible.

​

For the first time ever, we were leaving our home and 4 very loved animals with a non-family member. It is not an easy decision to make and is one of the most stressful.  Our dogs took to Jill immediately and watching her interact with them took away a lot of the anxiety I was feeling.

​

Jill came over twice to get the “lay of the land”, spend time with the dogs and watch the feeding routine as our female dog has very specific diet needs and also takes medication for doggy anxiety.  Our old Chihuahua also gets meds as needed and needs help getting around.  We also have an 11-month-old black lab who is a giant handful and a cat who will come out when she feels like it. Jill took notes on all the information we gave and asked all the right questions on the best way to care for our “kids”.

​

While we were away, and I checked in, Jill answered immediately and sent me pictures so I could see all were happy and healthy and when our Blink outside camera activated on the phone app we saw the dogs running around and playing.

​

We came home to a very clean home, fresh flowers, and happy animals so all we had to do after a very long day of travel was relax.

​

I would very much recommend Jill Besterfield as your go to person to trust your fur babies and your home with.

 

Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:

​

Without a doubt I would recommend Jill to care for your pet and home.  She truly cares about animals and their well-being. I would trust her to come into your home and care for your pets. She understands animals and their needs. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

 

Jill masterfully managed my home and young, energetic Husky, Loki, who means the world to me and my three children. Throughout the entire process she treated him as though he is a part of her family. We came back to a clean, organized home and a healthy, happy pet.

 

I have a peace of mind knowing that Loki and my home are in good hands with Jill and will definitely use the services of Besterfield Group again.

Recommendation for Jill Besterfield for Elder Care Transport Services:

 

It’s a great pleasure to write a statement of recommendation for Jill who has reliably performed elder care driving for my mother for more than a year. Jill is reliable and professional as well as friendly and compassionate.

 

I am a busy professional and sometimes need my elderly mother driven the hour to my home. She always feels safe and comfortable when she is with Jill. I always feel assured when Jill is assisting because I know that she is fully competent and makes good decisions.

 

Sincerely,

Rita Bender - Westchester, NY

To Whom It May Concern:

​

The last few times I had to leave town for an extended period of time on business, I had Jill housesit and take care of our beloved dog, Miles. She did an excellent job and Miles bonded very strongly to her. 

​

I plan on using her again in the future and would highly recommend her.

Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:

 

On two occasions, Jill moved into our condo while we were on extended vacation.  We have a sweet cat Felicia that doesn't like to be alone. Plus, the condo wouldn't be empty. 

 

We returned to a happy cat and extra clean condo!

  

We highly recommend Jill and Besterfield Group for a pet and house sitter. She's amazing. 

 

Sincerely,

 

Brenda Newell -Tivoli NY

It is with great relief and pleasure that we found our way to Jill when my husband and I needed extra attention and help with his companion care. She is reliable, sensible and kind.  She made sure he ate, had his medicines and showered. Perhaps most important, Jill  kept him company and chatted.

​

It was a great relief to me to know that she was nearby keeping an eye on both him and the house.

We would be happy to recommend her to help you care for your loved one.

​

With Gratitude,

Jill picked me up on time & got me to the airport in a leisurely fashion during which I fell into a lovely conversation learning much about this young woman & her zest for life. 

 

I can recommend Jill and Besterfield Group to anyone looking for transportation to & from airports.  I feel very fortunate to have found her and already have plans to use her services again.

​

Best,

I am thrilled that Jill is my three cats' other mother for when I am away, which is often. I trust Besterfield Group and highly recommend them!
