My experience

I ended 2014 with a month-long Fall sit in Munich, Germany (two Labradors and romps in the woods!) and two holiday sits in Nashville, Tennessee (a Border Collie and four cats), and spent all of 2015 on the road: six weeks with two long-term…

Fred stayed in my home for 4 months last summer, caring for my 2 indoor cats. Fred did an outstanding job of keeping me up to date on the cats, sending me photos of one of the cat's eyes that had a problem, as well as just pictures of them being adorable! He took initiative in researching the possible causes, and contacted my primary and back-up vets, without being asked to do so. He also took excellent care of my house, which was no small undertaking as it is older and needs some repairs. He is extremely conscientious, and I would highly recommend him.
