Review My sphinx cat Effy LOVES Jennie, and so do I! She came running on a last-minute notice and saved the day when my overseas return trip got delayed, and my paid cat / house sitter couldn't extend their stay. My cat is a hairless Sphinx and has quite a few special requirements - she's emotionally needy, always cold, eats three different types of food at three different times of day, and has the stinkiest poops in the universe (it's a Sphinx thing) ! Jennie made sure Effy stayed warm by lots of cuddling, moving Effy's 'sun chair' around into the sun spots all day, making sure Effy had a sweater on at night, and even cleaned up some previous cat messes that were left by the cat sitter who proceeded her. Because she lives nearby, Jennie's stopped over since the house sit, and Effy hops into her arms and sticks to her like a magnet. Jennie also has an adorable dog named Sherman who Effy absolutely loves. She brought him with her on the sit and the two play so well together. Sherman is a total sweetheart who gets a long with everyone. Great company for Effy as well when Jennie had to make outings. Magical! I wholeheartedly recommend Jennie to take impeccable care of your cherished animals and home, and will DEFINITELY use her again. FIVE STARS!
