Again, Robert was awesome to work with! He’s timely, communicative, and self sufficient. It’s really nice to not be worried about the cats while traveling, and Robert gives us that peace of mind!

Robert was awesome. He was responsive, professional, and handled the kitties and their quirks well. Everything went so seamlessly I forgot to review him sooner!! All around, we definitely recommend Robert and we’d love to have him sit for us again.
