Gene was the cat's meow!! His communication was open, frequent, timely, and professional. We found him super-friendly - a really great house-and-cat-sitter

We are so grateful that Gene agreed to housesit for us and care for our dog, Fiona. From the very first time we spoke over video chat, it was clear to us

Gene has not only been my tenant but my neighbor for the last 5 years. Loyal, honest, trustworthy...I know this makes him sound like a Boy Scout but he does possess all those qualities. Cooper, his Golden Doodle, the perfect gentleman, quietly polite, is a favorite among all of us here at the complex. Besides being tastefully decorated, his apartment is always immaculate. I would trust Gene with my dogs, home, car, mail; in short, everything. Additionally, his joy in life and wry sense of humor easily garners admiration and friends wherever he goes. Gene is simply a wonderful person.
