RE: Recommendation for Ritha Fellerman
To Whom It May Concern:
Ritha Fellerman has been renting my house in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, since July 1, 2016, and managing it as an Airbnb property. As it turned out, various house systems were in need of repair, and almost from the day she started, Ritha had to suspend the Airbnb activities in order to make the house habitable both for herself and for the guests. She has an astonishing eye for detail, she is endlessly inventive, she is terrific at finding high-quality, low-cost solutions, and also terrific at finding the best help possible. She’s also great at suggesting and implementing capital improvements—she realized, for example, that having an additional half bath would improve the level of service and comfort, and after discussing it with me, figured out how to do so. The pictures of it are wonderful!
She is also a terrific hostess. One thing that was very important to me was to maintain my Airbnb “Top Host” rating, and she has done so. She’s received wonderful reviews. I can recommend her without reservation: She is active, practical, cost-conscious, aesthetic-conscious, and above all, absolutely responsible. I couldn’t take better care of the house myself. Please feel free to email or call if you want to discuss my experience with her.
In addition to the routine maintenance of the house, including staff management, payment of bills, etc., I’m listing the many projects, repairs, and improvements she has undertaken in the last ten months, just so you have a sense of her abilities and boundless energy and organizational ability:
Repaired water pump
Repaired, resealed, and painted all roof surfaces
Touched up bedroom paint
Repaired cracks in walls and all other damage to walls and doors caused by water leaks
Painted house exterior and outer wall exterior
Painted exterior staircase
Re-cemented metal stanchions on patio floor
Replaced toilet in existing bathroom
Replaced sink faucets in existing bathroom
Built a third bathroom
Installed a lip on bottom of shower to contain water
Installed mirrors in bedrooms
Touched up bedroom paint
Repaired exterior locks and replaced lock to street for additional security
Repaired stacked washing machine and dryer
Purchased and installed side-by-side washing machine and dryer
Repaired disposal
Repaired freezer
Repaired dishwasher
Repaired fireplace and installed new gas line
Installed more comfortable seating in the dining room
Cleaned pond
Replaced UV light
Cleaned water tank
Switched internet carrier for significant savings

To Whom It May Concern:
I’m writing in recommendation for Ritha Fellerman, who was my house sitter during the summer of 2015. I would recommend Ritha highly.
I have two indoor cats and two outdoor cats, and a rather extensive garden in the Southwest, which requires a fair amount of vigilance to keep alive in the hot summers here. I was pleased to return to find my cats happy and well cared for – Ritha was loving and affectionate with them, and kept their box and environment clean. I know they are going to miss her.
Ritha also kept the garden in good order, watering so that the plants survived the rigors of the summer, and I’m most grateful about that. She is a charming and personable woman with extensive travel expertise, and I believe would be a valued house sitter for anyone.
Sincerely,
Lauren Raine MFA

She arrived, as arranged, on time a day before we left, was very friendly and easy to get on with and we departed with no anxieties about leaving her in charge.
On our return we found that she had really enjoyed her time in London, the cats were happy and relaxed and the house tidy - she had even fixed 2 broken chairs.
We found her a delight, highly entertaining and a very good communicator and feel we will see her again one day.- Organised

I am privileged to have been a close friend and a work associate with Ritha. She impresses me with her many inner drives, such as, her passion for learning and experiencing life. She loves to learn new cultures and to not only visit but live the new cultures. She is an exceptional cook and she finds locals that will teach her new dishes to prepare. Ritha also has a passion to make everything the best that it can be, not only of herself but for others. Ritha became involved in an English as a Second Language (ESL) endeavor. Her approach was very unique. She had the students use paintings, storytelling, plays, dance, and other artistic opportunities as the method to excite the students to learn English. Everyone loved the experience.
I feel that Ritha will treat your home or your pet in much the same way, with a passion to make the experience the best that it can be and to learn why your pet or your home is so important to you and will treat it with the respect that it deserves.- Organised

She was a delight, we got on very well and we departed with no worries about leaving our house and pets in her care.
She communicated very well with us while we were away and we returned to find the house clean and tidy and the cats happy and relaxed.
We think Ritha enjoyed her stay in London and we would welcome her back at any time.
We have no hesitation in recommending her to others for any future house sit applications.- Organised

I highly recommend Ritha Fellerman to be a completely trustworthy home and pet sitter. She will take on the responsibilities asked of her with confidence, care and competence. Her multi-language ability is certainly a plus! You would be lucky to have her take of your home and pets!
