Just perfect. Merima is exactly the crazy cat lady that everyone needs when they go on vacation and want to know their cats are in good hands! We met in advance and immediately hit it off. She was very careful and very kind to my animals. I got photos every day. And she is very fond of the cats. We met again afterwards and exchanged ideas and got tips for food. These were implemented and extremely well received. She not only loves cats, she also knows them very well. I would be happy to entrust my tigers to you again. WE were 100% satisfied!!!

Arriving home in a tidy apartment with two happy cats - what more could you want :) the contact with Ramona was super nice and uncomplicated. Lovely again!

Bianca is a very good cat sitter. She got in touch quite spontaneously and helped us out at short notice over the holidays. Communication was always quick and very friendly. She certainly has a good rapport with cats and was very familiar with our cat from the start. We received daily updates and photos. Highly recommendable.
