Han was absolutely fantastic with our cats! We have one shy kitty and one very outgoing sour patch kid who craves attention, and Han handled both of their personalities with ease. She kept in regular contact with us, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that our cats really loved her! We also had Han house-sit, and it was incredibly reassuring to know that our cats had company for most of the time we were gone. Her care and attention to detail made all the difference. We will definitely be booking Han for all future stays—highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring pet sitter!

About: I have 1 year of experience caring for dogs and 2 years with cats. I’m patient, attentive, and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, and giving basic medication. I’ve also helped care for senior cats and have experience with shy or nervous pets, making them feel safe and loved. I’m currently a PhD student with a flexible schedule. I’m available for pet care every day except Monday. Whether it’s daytime visits, evening check-ins, or weekend stays, I can adjust my time to fit your pet’s needs and routine. I provide in-home care at the client’s place to help pets stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I follow all care instructions closely, keep the space safe and clean, and always give pets the time and attention they need to feel relaxed and secure.

Cindy was fantastic this past week staying at our home and watching our dog Arlo. She was exceptionally communicative throughout our trip and went above and beyond to keep our home in great shape and ready for a late night arrival back in DC. Arlo was happy and clearly well cared for when we returned home.
