I love all the cats!
Pet care experience
I grew up with cats; they've always been a part of my life. My last two kitties have been older with special needs. I enjoy the challenge of getting to know a shy cat and working to build up trust. I know that cat care is more than putting down fresh food and water and changing the litter; it's brushing, and petting, and playing - on their terms. My most challenging pet care experience has been caring for a cat living with residents in a memory care facility; it was worth it. I've never met a cat I didn't love.
Reviews
Jennifer was able to come by and check on my kitty a day earlier than originally booked and at short notice, when my kitty had to have a medical procedure before my trip. Her comments and communication were so awesome and put my mind at ease. I felt my little loves were in the best hands possible!
Jennifer always does such a great job looking after our cats. She makes it so easy to travel and leave the kitties at home; I always know they are well cared for in her hands ☺️
Jennifer took extra steps to help get my cat his meds when he wasn't taking it. Really appreciate her stepping up to do it, and making sure he stays healthy!
I can always rest easy knowing that my kitty is in good hands with Jennifer! She makes sure that he gets his medicine and gives him lots of love and attention. I appreciate the photos and updates she sends, and I highly recommend her as an awesome sitter!

Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to visit your home where your cat is most comfortable. Neither my lease nor my cat would tolerate kitty visits. :) I respect your home and your privacy.
Information Jennifer V. would like to know about your pet
Clearly you'll tell me about food, treats, litter, medications, and favorite toys. It also helps to know favorite locations for play and pets (and hairballs and hiding). And it's really helpful to know if they are going to be trying to escape the second I open the door!
A typical day
I love to play with cats, whether that's throwing the crinkly ball over and over again or swinging the teaser wand back and forth or hiding the red dot around the corner. If your cat is more mellow (or a loaf, or a senior) I'm happy to play on their terms (maybe swinging that teaser over them while they roll around?). All cats get companionship and pets on demand.

Availability
I'm available all day on weekends and school vacation days. On school days, I'm available in the afternoon and early evening. My calendar reflects my availability for new kitty clients. I limit my availability for new clients so that I can almost always accommodate current clients. That being said, please know that holidays book up early!
