Mary Ellen was excellent. I was completely disheveled when leaving for my trip. Not a problem, Mary Ellen had no issues. My two older fur balls were well taken care of and were very happy despite my failings to get everything done before I left. We are all happy that we found Mary Ellen.

Mary Ellen is an excellent care giver! She provided care for my two older "girls" who are very picky and did an excellent job connecting with them, caring for them and offering her knowledge and advice! I highly recommend her to anyone! She truly cares! Thank you Mary Ellen!

Mary Anne showed up while I was gone and she fed and watered my cat. No problems. Interactions with her were pleasant and she always called me back quickly. Recommend!!
