Rent a Friend LLC was founded by Katrina Blank and her mother, Jane Marshall, after realizing how valuable it would be to have a dependable resource to call during the busy, complicated moments of everyday life.
Katrina co-founded Rent a Friend LLC with her mother and helps clients with the wide range of personal, household, transportation, and concierge needs that make up the company's day-to-day work.
Jane co-founded Rent a Friend LLC with Katrina and brings extensive hands-on experience across many of the services the company provides.
Life doesn't always fit neatly into a workday. A repair comes up, a family schedule gets complicated, an appointment needs support, a pet needs care, or an ordinary task simply becomes one thing too many.
Rent a Friend LLC exists to give people a reliable place to start. We can help with the task ourselves when it's within our scope, or help find and coordinate the right professional when it isn't.
Two years after launch, we've had the privilege of helping multiple repeat clients and building relationships based on reliability, trust, and personal service.
All employees undergo background checks. Katrina and Jane have completed background checks themselves as part of the company's commitment to client trust.
Before bringing a vendor into a client's home, we have them perform work in our own home to assess the quality of their work.
As a two-person founding team, Katrina and Jane currently answer the phone themselves and remain directly involved in the client experience.
