She is completely reliable, honest and a joy to deal with. Whenever I leave my home, Jen is my first choice to look after it. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending her to care for your property, plants and animals. She will be greatly missed in New Zealand!” – Sally Thorburn, Home Owner, New Zealand “Jen is a charming person and an excellent house and pet sitter: reliable, kind, well organized and efficient. On her very first visit she won the trust of our high-strung, often mean little dog, making friends with him and taking him for long walks. We especially appreciate Jen's sense of responsibility: she arrives on time, remembers appointments and keeps in close touch with us while we are away. We feel very lucky to have found Jen and would call on her whenever we need someone to provide loving care for our home and dog!” – Suzanne Cowan, Home Owner, San Francisco I take pride in caring for your home and pets as if they were my own. I enjoy providing you peace of mind to go on your adventures - and look forward to getting myself established in California so I can go on my own!
