My experience

My family always had dogs and cats growing up. I’m an Idaho girl so I’ve ridden horses, although my parents never owned them. I’ve run a small farm myself (in my 30s, I had goats, sheep, rabbits, and over 100 chickens on my farm). I was the…

Havilah did a great job caring for our cats. She agreed to come a day early to stay with us, so I could go over pet and house details with her. She always…
Hava was flexible and collaborative in planning the sit. She gave us good updates and the house was in great shape when we returned - hardly a trace of her…
Kitties were super happy with Havilah! Even the super skiddish one was cuddling by the end. Couldn’t be happier.

I met Hava through work a few years ago, but today I consider her a friend. It was difficult to choose only three positive attributes from the list but I believe the boxes I ticked cover the rest. Throughout my personal and professional experience with Hava, I have watched her engage with a gamut of people, deliver informed strategies, and do so with keen tact. She is also, kind, compassionate, and terribly thoughtful. When I lost my senior pup (Kobe) she shared the loss of one of her dear pets as well, and we cried together. If I had another animal, I would hire her in a heartbeat and not think twice. This is not something I say lightly, however, with Hava, it's a no brainer. You (and your pets) would be lucky to have her.

Why I want to house sit
I am going through a divorce at the moment and other than my four-legged children, never managed to procreate. Faced with a crossroads, I decided that instead of settling down somewhere and living there full time, I would start traveling…
