Mahalia Wolfson: (two very special cats taken care of several times, for one to two weeks)
Trustworthy, efficient, organized, friendly, competent. Great! (May 2009)
Alicia Forester :
Marilena was a pleasure to be around as she helped me clear out a storage area. She was very helpful organizing what needed to be tossed, given to friends, taken to Goodwill. She then carefully wrapped up the treasures I decided to keep. She's upbeat, bright and supportive. A treasure, herself. I find myself looking for reasons to have her back. (Jan 2009)
Patricia & Lair :
Marilena & RD housesit and took care of our two cats while we were away in Europe for weeks this summer and did a fabulous job. Everything was in order when we returned. She even took notes of feline activity and cleaned up any messes they made!
Definitely would recommend them and are hoping they will be available when we travel again. ( Fall 2010)
Audrey P: (an older cat that required lots of TLC and meds... we have sat for her numerous times since this review)
Marilena and husband, RD, were excellent house and cat sitters for me recently. They were so good and loving with my cat that he was depressed for a few days after I returned from a 2-week trip! I found my house clean and closets/ cabinets more organized than they had been in years. My cat is looking forward to my next trip in a couple of months when I have already booked Marilena and RD to stay with him again. ( Dec, 2008)
Louisa Green: (also sat for them several times)
November 2008:
To who it may concern, I have had the pleasure of working with Marilena Silbey numerous times in my position as a Personal Assistant. She has been an outstanding house and dog sitter (two wonderful well trained dogs) for my employers, Tiffanie Debartolo and Scott Schumaker, of Mill Valley. She has been punctual, reliable and thorough. She always informs us of anything that happens while she is caring for the animals and the house and goes above and beyond the call of duty.
I would recommend Marilena highly to anyone looking for someone to care for their home and/or pets. I would be happy to speak to anyone interested in hiring Marilena
Susan Landes: (caregiver for her and her cats for two years)
I just wanted to attest to Marilena's expertise, practical wisdom, and art of being. She helped
me four times recently with driving and help around the home, and it was a
pleasure to work with her. She came up with ingenious solutions for old
problems. She was a gracious presence. Everything she touched turned to
gold. And we had a lot of fun. I highly recommend her work. Please don't hesitate to call her.
Steven Fink:
fun friendly effective loving clear excellence. She has helped me get organized in my office, kitchen, closets and garage. Now I know where everything is located (after years of single guy disorganization) and my days are easier and more productive. Great and very loving with my dog 'Happy'. Thanks. (ps I utilize her whenever it comes time to reorganize!) (Ongoing 2011)
