Testimonials

Durango Co.-cat sit/ home on lovely property

Jim and Susan are a very friendly and fun couple. They are super nice and very enjoyable to get to know. I arrived the day before they left and we were able to go over the care of the cats and home. Written instructions were provided as well. I had the pleasure of caring for their 2 cats, Maggie and Red. The cats are super sweet, easy going and laid back. Caring for them is basically feeding, cleaning the litter box and a little playtime. There were a few plants to water and once a week taking the trash out. Communication was excellent via text messaging. The home and property is absolutely beautiful! There are mountains in all directions and a flowing creek on the back property. Just sitting on the deck reading a book is so relaxing. The area is very safe and a remote/code was used to enter so access is limited by others. Durango is an outdoor paradise offering hiking, biking, rafting, etc. I would highly recommend this sit especially if you like the outdoors. Thanks for allowing me to sit for and care for your sweet cats!
