Kaylene is so sweet and I enjoyed house sitting for lucky! He’s a sweet boy and opens up rather quickly! Such a beautiful place with such a peaceful vibe!
The dates originally scheduled were extended/slightly shifted, but our experience so far has been nothing but wonderful - Kaylene has been incredibly thoughtful, communicative, and helpful from the beginning! We love the neighborhood. It is quiet, feels very safe, and is surrounded by many beautiful mountains. Kaylene made sure the home felt cozy and fully prepared for us before we arrived. She even purchased extra paper towels, toilet paper, and other household items to make sure we felt ...

We love the neighborhood. It is quiet, feels very safe, and is surrounded by many beautiful mountains. Kaylene made sure the home felt cozy and fully prepared for us before we arrived. She even purchased extra paper towels, toilet paper, and other household items to make sure we felt comfortable for this long stay. Lucky is quite the talker, and we are having so much fun with him! He loves that we both work from home because he gets to hang out with us a lot on weekdays. On weekends, when we come back from our adventures exploring the area, he welcomes us with so much love! <3

I had a great house sit with Lucky the cat who after a few days getting to know each other would sit in my lap and watch TV every evening. Communication with Kaylene was excellent leaving me with clear instructions and emergency contacts. We coordinated perfectly for me to pick up and drop off her vehicle at the airport at the beginning and end of her trip. The house was stocked well with everything I needed to care for Lucky while she was away. The view from Kaylene's house is amazing and ...

Palmer is a quaint little town with some great restaurants and very friendly people. I you enjoy cats and the great outdoors as hiking trails are abundant, this is a great housesit which I would definitely do again. Thanks for trusting me with Lucky.
