“Elizabeth is a paralegal in my office and I have known her for over a year. She is extremely dependable, trustworthy, and kind to all people and animals.

She makes me feel so much more relaxed about going out of town, because I always known Daisy will be well cared for. I have always come home to a happy and relaxed cat, and a clean home. I've also asked her to stay in my house and care for my plants, take in the mail, etc., and she always does a wonderful job. I am so grateful to have Elizabeth as a pet caregiver, coworker, and friend!”

We LOVE her!!”
