“Shikha was such a wonderful cat-sitter! She took such good care of Ruby while i was gone, always making sure to play with her and give her some extra love and treats when she stopped by. She also is extremely punctual and responsible, and laid out the exact times she would stop by for every day I was away. I appreciated it so much!”
