Marilyn looked after Joyce Zomer’s pets & home
Marilyn and I initially met as work colleagues and have stayed in contact over the years. She looked after our home and dog, Samba, on two occasions and provided us with a stress- and care- free holiday. Samba was well taken care of and our home was in the same condition when we returned. Marilyn is independent, trustworthy, responsible and reliable and enjoyed caring for Samba. When Marilyn came the second time, two years later, Samba remembered her and there was no problem with us going away. We would have her come again at any time.
