Erika saved our trip! When our arranged "Zeewoi" cancelled on us one week before we were to leave on a five week trip, Erika agreed to come and take care of our house and pets even though she had not met us nor would we be there when she came. That took a lot of trust, from both sides! Erika did not disappoint us. She kept in touch so we knew she was there and taking care of things. She handled problems like a pro and this was only her second "sit". Erika took perfect care of our aging horses and cat, she fed the wild birds so they kept coming. The house, house plants and yard were in great shape when we returned. We highly recommend Erika.

What can I say... Jenny and Richard are such a lovely caring couple. The dogs and cat we so loved. We found out the day before leaving that one of the dogs needed medication every day and special food which he wasn't keen on but Jenny found ways to make the food enjoyable. We will definitely be asking them to come back and animal / house sit again. Thank you

Karen was very accommodating with my schedule for my departure. She took really good  care of Emma and sent some nice videos and pictures.. The condo was very clean and well taken care of while we were gone. I really appreciate the care she gave both the Condo and Emma. I would definitely use her again.. Thanks for the peace of mind Karen!
