Gwendolyn looked after Morgan’s pets & home

We were so very happy to have Gwen as our pet sitter! We were on a several week vacation without cell service and had Gwen watched our cat. Unfortunately, soon after we left, our cat developed a hematoma in his ear that needed to be treated surgically. Gwen handled the situation perfectly by reaching out to our emergency contact and making a collaborative plan with them to take care of our cat. After the surgery, he needed extra care and Gwen cared for him expertly, tackling all of the extra needs a cat in a cone requires. When an unexpected event happens that could endanger your pet, you want someone who is experienced and reliable. That is exactly what Gwen is! We were so lucky to have her around taking care of Rick. Aside from the pet sitting, she is so friendly and a joy to be around. We can’t recommend her enough! Gwen was also very neat, organized and respected our space.

Why I want to house sit

To explore new places, and while I am traveling, to extend my stays in places I like. It is the perfect way to get to know a place in the good company of animals.
