It is with regret that I leave this review for Carla, because it will create more bookings making her calendar full which will make it difficult for me when I need her. Knowing I can't keep her just for myself, I'll tell the truth. Carla is fantastic, My two rescues (mom and son) were saved from a water drain, I adopted them from their foster mom. I had a sitter for over 1 and a half years and they never got very close to her, and I tried another one recently and they hid for 4 days until I got back home, not coming out for their wet food meals but would sneak out at night for their kibble. Frustrated, I searched intently and picked Carla to have her come over to meet my cat family. She came over, spent over an hour with me talking, hoping hearing her with me would calm them for her upcoming overnight stays. She came over an hour before I was to leave on my trip so they would hear us together again. I was still on the road of a short 2 hour trip and my cats were already coming out of hiding, they ate their dinner she gave them and stayed near her. THIS WAS HUGE, and by the 2nd day my boy was already playing with her, stealing her hair ties and letting her pet him and both cats were being themselves chasing each other around the apartment. They acted like she was family already, she even woke up to the mom kitty sleeping in small cat tree in the bedroom next to her, doing things they never even did with the first long term sitter and of course not the last one. There are not enough words to describe the total peace of mind Carla has brought to my life, the fact they both adapted to her in a couple of days is something I never thought could ever happen, and having to travel sometimes for up to 2 weeks, I can now relax and not fear being away when I need to be, and knowing I've been sent an angel. Don't tell everyone...I don't want her to get so busy she won't have time for us. Thank You Carla, so very much for being you!

We love Carla! She’s dependable, kind, and our pups just love her! She’s stayed in our home and helped us with our two big dogs multiple times. We are so thankful for her! We know our fur babies are in good hands while we are away. Thank you, Carla!

I will need to know if they are territorial over anything. How much daily exercise they are used too. Do they become worried or anxious when alone? Do they have and triggers when away from home?
