“Kayla did an amazing job taking care of our cat. She showed up as scheduled, and went above and beyond with his care. We got great feedback and lots of photos showing how happy he was. The house was always locked up and the alarm set when she left. I highly recommend Kayla🙂”

20. jackie r.
“She came and visited my kitties for a week. Litter box was not consistently cleaned daily or checked. My cats pooped on the floor in bedroom. They do not do this unless litter box is not cleaned for days. Same bowls were used for wet food for the entire week though I left instructions that there were extra bowls in a bin near food. It looks like the soft food just kept getting piled on into the same bowl and was dried and stuck on the bowl for days. Unfortunately won’t be using Jackie again.”
