Karen & Bob looked after Lynne’s home

Karen is an exceptionally organized and reliable person. She has kept an an eye on my home numerous times when I am out of state. Special care given to plants and gardens. She has been a loving parent to both dogs and cats but most recently two darling cats, Daphne and Dexter. When each needed medical care she researched the best methods of treatment. I would highly recommend her for both house and pet sitting.
