The cats were relaxed and happy when we arrived home. We had a small communication error regarding start time. Cats are normally easy, but I have a kidney failure kitty that does best when fed small bits frequently. So the late arrival was stressful for me. With that said, I would use Claire again. She was polite and the house was emasculate upon our return.

Our dog seemed well cared for when we got home. It gave us peace of mind that Claire is a vet tech in case Wrigley got sick or had any issues. She did tell us when his eye was irritated and said that she could take him to the vet if needed. I would have liked more pictures and check ins, especially because we were gone for 11 days, it was a long time. We were happy to get home and see that he was well cared for.
