To Whom It May Concern:

This letter is a reference for Sandra Ling, who has provided pet care services to me since May 1999.

Sandra is extremely dependable & responsible. I know that when I need her, she'll be there. She has taken care of my 3 cats, 5 fish & turtle on many occasions. I can travel with a clear conscience, because I know Sandra will take care of the animals in my absence.

Sandra is excellent with my cats. I have one cat who is very shy, & he would always hide from my other cat sitters. However, Sandra has shown patience & tenderness for him, & he is now always happy to see her. He no longer stays hidden under the bed!

Sandra is also a pleasure to deal with. She is always upbeat & positive, & she exhibits enthusiasm for her work.

I highly recommend Sandra because she is very qualified, extremely dependable & responsible.

To Whom It May Concern,

I am writing this letter as a reference for Sandra Ling. She has been my pet sitter for more than a year now. I travel at least once a month, entrusting her with my animals & house. I never worry when I leave for business because Sandra is always available on short notice & does a great job. She is more than a petsitter is; she brings in my mail & puts out my garbage. She gives my dog medication & takes the time to play with my animals, not just feed them.

Sandra has a great love for animals & is very genuine in the care that she provides. She has truly become attached to my dog & cat & they have a good rapport. It feels more like Sandra is a friend coming by to feed my animals, not a service. I would highly recommend the quality care that Sandra Ling & her company provides.

Sincerely,

Alex N., sales engineer

PERSONAL REFERENCE:

January 31, 2000

Caring. Dependable. Dedicated. Honest. Loving. Trustworthy. Quick to share a laugh.

These are just a few of the qualities that come to mind when we are asked to describe Sandra Ling.

We first met Sandra several years ago when she came to work at the Daily Journal of Commerce. Our working relationship quickly became a friendship when we discovered we had many things in common, including a love of animals. She has been so supportive of us in so many ways, & we have always known we could rely on her for anything we might need.

There are not enough words to express how highly we recommend Sandra for any endeavor she should choose to take on.
