Grief support is only a post or phone call away ...
GRIEVING:
"Shortly before our dog Ruby died, we were called away from town and were worried that Ruby would not be able to go outside as often as she needed due to a weak bladder. Patty stopped in and not only made the scheduled number of visits, but went beyond her call of duty to be there seemingly around-the-clock for Ruby. She was also very helpful with the grieving process that we both experienced, providing useful information and serving as a source of comfort." -Nita and Rich Hampson
TRUSTWORTHY:
"Patty first came over to my house a few days before my departure, and Pebbles immediately rolled over on her back for a tummy rub. Since this puts a pet in a vulnerable position, it quickly became obvious that Pebbles had complete trust in Patty and loved her from the very start. Patty sat down on the couch and Pebbles immediately climbed onto her lap, promptly went to sleep and SNORED the entire time of Patty's stay. Although Pebbles snuggles close to me, I have never been able to get her to lie on my lap since she was very young. Patty is the only one I trust with my house key. I won't even leave town unless I know that she's available. I've already reserved her service in August for Christmas time!" -Evelyn Stem
"I hired Patty after a few issues with some friends who tried to pet sit for my little Maggie. She is a rescue and very nervous around strangers, especially with regard to her food. Additionally, I had long trips for work that lasted up to two weeks. Because of my cat's severe nervousness, I needed someone patient and consistent for her during all my travels.
Patty is patient even when Maggie lashes in distress. After some time and patience (and lots of food offered), Maggie relaxes a bit. After my first long trip with Patty watching Maggie, I could see she was better upon my return than the last time I left. It's a great comfort to know that Patty has the experience and demeanor such a nervous kitty needs!" -Laura Johnson, Scottsdale
