We can't say enough good things about Brenda and Rich. They took such good care of our home and our tortoise Milo. We had to go back to the UK for a funeral

I have known Brenda for over 15 years and Rich for the past three years. Brenda is also my former employee. Both are extremely dependable and trustworthy. Having spent a significant amount of time at their home, I know they are both very clean and tidy, in addition to being pet lovers. While staying in my home, Brenda took care with everything, treating it as if it were her own.
