Natalie has been caring for our two cats and a dog for the last 5 years when we take family trips. She takes great care of them and they love to have her come. She also takes good care of our house while we’re away, bringing in the mail, taking out the trash, etc. On the few occasions when something unexpected happens, she has always handled it well and/or communicated with us for instructions. Natalie is an unusually intelligent, sensible and responsible young woman! We always feel very confident when she is in charge.
