20. Mariah G.
“Mariah house-sat for us and took care of our cat and dog for a period of 14 days while we were traveling. I can’t say enough positive things about the level of responsibility and caring she demonstrated. Unfortunately our cat became very sick with onset of seizures in that time and Mariah acted with speed and composure, and sought the medical support our cat needed in our absence, thus saving his life. She went above and beyond our expectations in caring for him once he returned from the emergency hospital. Mariah was excellent in her communication with us throughout our stay and our pets loved her. I would highly recommend Mariah for any pet/house sitting position.”
