Housesitting and Petsitting Reference 1
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
 
I highly recommend Neva Howell for housesitting and petsitting.

She has sat for me and cared for my little puppy, Cooper, on several occasions.

Neva always leaves my home just as she found it, and her sleeping area as if she had never even been there. She completely cleans up after herself.

Since she works at home, she is there more than some might be and I like that because Cooper has more company. Neva plays frisbee with Cooper several times during the day and gives him lots of love and attention.

Housesitting and Petsitting Reference 2
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
 
I recently met Neva Howell for the first time when I asked her to housesit for me
while I took a weekend trip. Having never met her before and opening my house up
to her, I research her background before she arrived and found her to be a very
multi-talented lady with an interesting background.
 
I was not disappointed when I meet her. She was very respectful of my home and
my two dogs loved her. She was very attentive and showed concern for both of them.
 
She came very prepared for her stay and left my home even better than she found it.
You could not even tell anyone had been at my house when I got back. She washed
her linens, dishes, and cleaned up anything she used during her stay.
 
I would use Neva again as my house sitter and would welcome her into my home as
a friend. I was very impressed with her manner and she is a very interesting lady whose
background is a story within itself.
 
I would certainly recommend Neva as a house sitter and would say with confidence that
she would do an excellent job taking care of your home and pets. I would be glad to be
used as a reference for her at any time.

Housesitting and Petsitting Reference 3


TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
 
My wife Kim and I live in Atlanta, Ga, and asked Neva to house and pet sit for us over a recent 3 day weekend, and she proved to be an absolute gem! From the moment she walked in our house, she seemed to instantly feel as if a long time part of our family. You could just sense the nurturing qualities that Neva possesses, and we immediately felt at ease leaving our house and pets in her care.

We have 2 crazy dogs, 3 spoiled cats, and a fish, so it was certainly a handful, but she handled them all wonderfully, and they were happy as ever, with full bellies and tails wagging when we returned. Likewise, our house was immaculate. Neva was kind enough to call us a couple of times each day to let us know that everything was fine, putting our minds at ease and enabling us to enjoy our time away.

I can’t recommend Neva’s services enough, and very much look forward to welcoming her into our home again in the near future.

Housesitting and Petsitting Reference 4
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
 
I know Neva as a next door neighbor in north Tennessee and as a friend
who house-sat our home and our dog Lady when we lived in Chattanooga.
 
I would definitely recommend and endorse Neva for your home and animal care. 
She is honest, responsible, mature, caring, balanced -- all the basic qualities of
character you would want to have in a person to whom you are entrusting your
home and loved ones.
 
But she is even more than that. Neva is especially sensitive to our inner natures
and to the same in animals. She will connect carefully and lovingly with your animals,
so their experience will be the best it can be while you are away. That is especially
important and comforting.
 
You are welcome to contact me.
 
 All the best,
