Jana is fantastic! She stayed in our house for several days taking care of our five pets (three cats and two dogs). This wasn't an easy job -- beyond the number of pets, a couple are old and require medication -- but Jana handled it all masterfully. She's kind, patient, and attentive, and she took good care of everyone. She often sent pictures to let us know our furry family was well. On top of all else, the house looked great when we returned. We're lucky to have found her. Highly recommended!
