Rebecca is very sweet and incredibly considerate. We had a nice long zoom call before confirming the sit and she was easy to talk to. At the time I had two kitties and one was very ill. Rebecca asked thoughtful questions and had so much experience that my stress and anxiety were alleviated; I was grateful to have found her and felt completely comfortable entrusting my kitties and little piece of paradise to her. Unfortunately my Fizzy Fitzy's health deteriorated and he didn't make it. I let Rebecca know before the sit that it would be only one kitty and that he would be adjusting to the loss of his "brother" and companion and might need more care and attention. She was so kind and again, I felt like the universe had sent me the right person. Rebecca and I got a chance to meet as we overlapped by an hour or two on day one; I was so glad to be able to see her in person and give her a hug before I left. I returned after about 10 days to a calm kitty (which was amazing given that he'd just lost his lifelong companion) and an immaculate apartment. Rebecca even washed the sheets and made the bed which was so beyond helpful and appreciated after a tiring trip. Rebecca sent me a long message on the last day letting me know what had been done and showing a walk-through of the home (she's very thorough, which I love), so I knew what I was coming home to down to the fruit in the fridge. Seriously, the place was immaculate! I know you're journeying on Rebecca but I would love to have you sit anytime. Thank you!

When we first met Mary we were instantly charmed by her calm, friendly demeanor.  Mary was very quick to pick up on all of her instructions and duties we assigned her. She was comfortable with all aspects of the house sit. Dickens and Mary made friends and warmed up to each other very quickly.   We returned to a spotless home and everything in perfect order. Dickens was happy and unstressed.  We enjoyed Mary's company very much. We invited her to stay an extra day to experience the total solar eclipse with us. She was helpful entertaining our friends who spontaneously joined us.  We all had a lovely time.  We would welcome Mary to house and Cat sit in the future. We highly recommend her professional abilities as a responsible, reliable and truly trustworthy sitter to others.

Rose was great.  Dogs were happy, house was immaculate and she was so kind to stay later in the day to feed the dogs when our flight was delayed.  Would invite Rose anytime to sit again

Sitting for Sarah was a breeze. She provided a Google Doc with detailed instructions for accessing the apartment, using its amenities, and looking after her kitty, Lyra. Lyra was shy initially, but soon her desire for human attention shined through and she was brushing up against me and sleeping on the bed. She also had moments of youthful exuberance, bounding across the room in the blink of an eye. Chasing an imaginary critter, perhaps? The apartment was as advertised: cozy, suitable for 1-2 people, in a great location. I definitely recommend this sit and the Mt. Pleasant neighborhood
