Reviews
We have only been working with Holly for a short time but we were impressed with her knowledge of children and how engaging she was with our daughter. She taught our 15 month old some new tricks the first day she was with her! She has a very flexible schedule and is available on random days when our regular nanny was not. We will continue to use her services!
I found Holly on Sittercity when I was looking for someone to take care of my cat during the Thanksgiving Holiday. She came over to meet with us and to meet our cat and right away I knew she would be perfect. She is very organized and knew exactly what information I should leave for her, vet name, how to get a hold of me just in case, what type of updates I wanted, etc. I asked for some updates while we were traveling and sure enough, she would send a text with a picture of our cat. Following our trip, we were so happy with Holly, including the brushing she gives our cat, that we have asked her to stop by on a more regular basis so that our cat gets a little extra attention during the week. It is very comforting to know that when we are traveling, our cat is in great hands, and when we are in town, she is getting a ton of attention on a regular basis. Scott S
In mid-April I joined Sitter City to find a pet sitter to keep my senior citizen cat happy and content while I was focused on other things. Holly has been a life saver - for me and for my cat Louise. Holly spent so much time grooming her that Louise got rave reviews from everyone at the veterinary clinic at her most recent visit. Holly stays in touch, provides frequent updates when I'm out of town, Is willing to help with the mail or other small tasks, and has even assisted on a couple occasions when I needed another set of hands. She has great concern about the health and well-being of her own cats and enthusiastically transferred that same level of attention to Louise. If you need a reliable and trustworthy pet-sitter, give Holly a try. I'm confident you'll be as glad you did as I have been.
