Lauren took care of our 2 cats with a drop-in visit to check auto food/water and clean litter boxes. It is all they really require at this point. Our 10 year old who generally does not come out for strangers unless we are home actually came out while she was here and she was able to get a couple of pictures of him. In the past with other sitters it has taken him several visits to come out. She obviously has a special something about her that my cats are very comfortable with. They give her all the stars!
