Lindsey was absolutely amazing! She was a great communicator, flexible, and self-sufficient. When our cat decided to randomly stop eating, she was so helpful in trying different strategies (when none of the usual tricks were working, she even went out and bought tuna, which was a great idea as our cat ended up eating some of it!) and took her to the vet to make sure everything was ok (which also involved wrangling her into her carrier). During all of this, she was great at sending us updates and communicating about what was going on. We truly appreciated the way Lindsey went above and beyond for us and our cat, and would recommend her highly!
Marjorie housesat and cared for our dog for a month and we were very pleased at how well she took care of our home and plants and especially our dog. She took initiative to troubleshoot an issue with the dog and went out of her way to help deal with that. She communicated well while we were away and sent photos and updates. We were very appreciative she came a day early so we could acquaint her with Sweet Pea's routines and favorite walking places. When we returned home, Sweet Pea was calm and also excited to show us a new game Marjorie had taught her. We were very pleased with Marjorie's care and highly recommend her for house/pet sits.
