From our first contact to our last, Ben was an honest, responsible and caring person to talk to. After he stopped by for a quick visit (he lives near me in Sonoma), I had zero hesitation leaving my sweet cat and home in his hands. I do a big clean just before a house sitter arrives and I arrived home to an equally clean home and a sleepy well fed cat. Ben, without my asking, sent me photos periodically of how Hamilton was warming up to him (cats can be so picky!) and his appreciation of the house. I couldn’t have been more at ease on my holiday! Thank you so much Ben, I’d love it if you want to sit again for Hamilton!
Maria (and her friend,, Brittany) were wonderful house sitters for our two large Australian Shepherds. They followed my directions, including lots of exercise for the dogs, and were very communicative. I definitely recommend Maria to others pet owners and will call upon her again in the future. Thank you, Maria and Brittany!
