quasi-pet/tank sitters in town?

[michika]

I'm trying to find a pet sitter for the X-mas weekend. I've been calling around since November and finally found someone who just called to tell me that they are backing out, because of the amount and types of pets I have.

Anyone have any good experience with pet sitters who aren't afraid of exotic pets or SW tanks? Who also don't want $60+ to come in only a couple times and put pre-portioned food into dishes or a tank...
