| - I am a very paranoid cat owner, and one of the (many) things that stresses me out about traveling is leaving my cats behind. Silly, I know, but I love my felines.
I found Janus through a recommendation from a friend, and everyone I know who has used her has said wonderful things about her. Our former petsitting serivce had gone out of business, and the college student we hired to watch our cats did a lousy job, so I was looking for someone.
Janus's first visit to our home was very thorough. Not only did she ask where the usual stuff is (litter boxes/food dishes/water bowls), she spent some time with the cats and petted and played with them. She is very friendly and gentle, and gets to know your pets and their quirks. She knows that one of my cats is probably going to get irritated and have "stress-barfing" while we are away, she knows that another of the cats is going to demand every last bit of her attention. Her visits are longer than most petsitters' visits (usually about an hour), but this gives her time to take care of the essentials AND spend some time with the cats.
One thing I particularly like is that Janus is willing to e-mail pet owners reports about her visits. This gives me great peace of mind, since I know the cats (and the house) are OK. She knows animal care, she's very good with pets, and her rates are very reasonable for the service that you get. I can't recommend C-U Pet Sitting Service highly enough.
