Kristi & John looked after Ian’s pets & home

Kristi is a close friend who has looked after our cats, and checked on our home, many times over the past decade. We trusted her to take care of our furry friends for short and long trips. Kristi was always reliable, and our cats certainly appreciated the extra time she took to play and visit with them.
