We could not have asked for a better sitter than Stefanie! We called her our Mary Poppins because she arrived with a bag of toys and treats for our cats and made sure they were happy and well-cared for while we were away for two weeks. Stefanie was super communicative before and during her stay, sending us regular updates, photos, and videos. She is highly organized, responsible, and self-sufficient, which was particularly important to us as we were off the grid during part of our trip. Most of all, she was so sweet to our kitties and clearly enjoyed spending time with them - both our elusive, reserved older cat and our playful, attention-loving kitten. We really can't recommend Stefanie enough and look forward to having her back to cat sit anytime!
Marilyn and Mark were fantastic sitters for my cat Loki, who immediately warmed up to them upon our initial visit. Marilyn was diligent with knowing all of Loki's needs (feeding, playtime, etc) and Mark quickly got Loki engaged in playing with a laser pointer. While I was gone, Marilyn shared daily photos and updates, so I never felt too far away from Loki. In addition to perfect pet care, they were wonderful house guests - tidy, reliable and left the apartment in great condition. I would love for them to sit for me again, and would recommend them for anyone looking for a great couple to take care of their home and fur children.
