1. Amy Y.
“Amy was a gem house sitting with our two kitties. One kitty loved her and our neurotic kitty hid most of the time, but that wasn’t Amy’s fault. Amy offered to wash sheets and towels and dishes, which I thought was extraordinary. She communicated well with us while we were away and sent us pictures of the kitties too. I would definitely hire her again.”
