Alex took great care of my cat Trixie while I went away for a weekend. She sent lots of pictures and even brought in a package that was delivered without being asked! Will book again.

I have a medically complicated feral-born cat and Alexandria was perfect for putting me at ease checking on both of my cats daily while I was away. Cats were very happy and house in good condition when I arrived home.
