18. Cole W.
“If you are looking for a sitter that can intuit your needs and preferences, while appreciating the unique temperament of your pet, Cole should be an excellent fit. She has taken the time to get to know my little wild ones, getting down on their level, offering lots of physical affection and kind words. She has matched their energy in play, and offered a calm presence when needed. Cole keeps careful track of her schedule, and is diligent about keeping her commitments.”


19. Steven K.

“Once again, Steven stepped up when the unexpected happened! I failed to provide the alarm access - and he had to deal with that ALARM sounding and the impact on the kitties. He is always calm and handles all issues with professionalism. Thanks (again!), Steven!”


20. Alyssa W.
