we were required to park too close to the vehicle next to us and of course there was a dent in my car from where the other car had hit us. We also left a bag and called Alex for help once we got home, he assured us he would check and get back to us as this happens frequently. He will not answer my calls now or return my many phone messages. Very disappointed! ...read more

Christina is a wonder with animals. I had never used an in-home pet sitter before and being new to the Jacksonville, FL area, we didn't know who we could trust, but with Christina from the initial meeting, I knew that she was the one. My husband and I have two mini Daschunds and two older cats. All were so happy and well taken care of any time we engaged While You're Away services. It gives you a peace of mind to know that you are leaving, what I consider members of my family, in the care of someone whom I can trust.

I first contacted While You're Away to pet sit for my cat while I was ill and possibly going into the hospital. I was admitted into the hospital and was worried about my cat. I gave my doctor While You're Aways number and asked them to contact her. My doctor made contact and on short notice, from that point forward, all of my worries went away. Christina the owner came to the hospital and spent 3-4 hours with me at the hospital and even went and personally took care of my cat. Anytime I have needed anything from taking me to doctor visits to taking me to get a new cell phone, Christina the owner has taken personal care of me. The willingness, promptness and most of all, care and attention I received from While You're Away is astonishing. For someone I hardly knew to have that much concern and love in their heart to make me and my situation a top priority is nothing short of absolutely stunning. ...read more
