20. Debbie K.
“I had a great experience with Debbie looking after my 1 year old cat, Tofu. She was a great communicator and took great care of Tofu. Tofu is young, playful, and has a lot of energy. I get some anxiety leaving her with a pet sitter for 3-4 days. However, the last time Debbie pet sat, my cat barely cared when I returned--it was clear that she got a lot of play time and pets when she ooked after her. I highly recommend Debbie and would definitely seek her services again, as she is reliable, respectful, and kind.”
