I felt very confident and comfortable with Taru staying in my place and caring for my cat and home. She is extremely reliable and responsible. In fact, she is the first housesitter where all my plants thrived. She is a quiet and respectful person and she left my home immaculate. I highly recommend her Carol Santa Monica, Calufornia
