Jose was severely overpriced. He wanted $350 a month to come bi-weekly and do routine lawn care. We used him one time and quickly realized he is very overpriced for the area. He also operates alone and wants to be paid cash under the table. I would not recommend using Jose.

He is going to come out weekly to help with the up keep of my lawn. He was professional, efficient, and punctual.  I would recommend him to others.

The Gentle Gardener is always reliable, prompt, and friendly, and really listens to me when I'm explaining what I want and makes helpful suggestions. He did a great job cleaning up my messy side yards, and he always does his work above and beyond my expectations. Plus, I am not shy about talking to him frequently, and he's very nice about it. My only complaint is that he is a little expensive for me, at $80.00/month, but that is because I am out of his usual service area, so he drives further to get to me. Fair is fair, after all! Besides, compared to the other gardeners I've had, he's definitely worth the money. I would definitely recommend him.

The person that came out was very nice.  He gave me a price, went and got the material and finished it that day.  His estimate on how much material was right on.  He did an excellent job.  I know who I will call the next time I need andy gardening or yard work done!  Jose!

He has worked for me for over a year, and he is very reliable.  He shows up on time, and even in the rain.  He does an excellent job, is knowledgeable, friendly, and a hard worker.

we agreed on bi-weekly mowing, but after first time he never showed, never answered my calls and now, a month later, he is calling and harrassing me for payment of what he says was extra grass clippings he had to haul away. this is a cost beyond the 60 dollars he quoted and I payed him.
DO NOT HIRE THIS PERSON!!!! BEWARE

Jose was pleasant enough we did not agree on the price that wanted as this is a Mobile Home Spot not a yard of a large house.

I called Gentle Gardening.  Jose (I believe he works solo) answered the phone immediately (several others had answering machines), gave me an estimate that afternoon.  He's thorough, professional, and reasonably priced.

My husband and I highly recommend Gentle Gardenering/Jose Zamora.  Due to health issues, we cannot manage the yardwork here, and finding Jose was a Godsend.

Punctual and friendly. Solo operator I think.  Came by my property, checked it out, got his tools from storage and got to work, all within one hour. Will use him for upkeep if needed.

Juan came, gave me the estimate, and did the work the same day. He worked very hard. I thought his prices were reasonable and he did a good job.

Jose answered the phone and came on the same day to give me an estimate. He performed the work the next day, exactly on time, as he said he would. The work performance was satisfactory. Jose was polite, on time and professional. Very reliable.

After canvassing and interviewing many gardeners who either didn't show up on time, or not all all, it was refreshing that Gentle Gardening was always prompt. His service is always reliable and he is cheerful as well.
