Kathryn O.

Somehow got my cats (who have historically fled strangers on sight) to come out and say hi consistently. Informative updates, proactive in asking for information, went above and beyond the call of duty in cleaning up hairballs. Excellent, friendly sitter, would definitely hire again.

Could not ask for more. - Hired Deborah because I broke my foot and could not walk my 100lb puppy. He is a wild boy. Deborah handles him in a caring, loving manner. You can truly see how much he enjoys his walks with her. If you have a choice, make her that choice !
