Pet care experience

Cat Whisperer & Feline Friend

As a lifelong cat parent, I've noticed our feline friends are often overlooked in pet sitting services. That's why I specialize in pet-sitting exclusively for cats! I get along with kittens and cats of all shapes and sizes, and can honestly say I've never met a cat I didn't like! I think of myself as a cat whisperer, due to my ability to connect with animals and cats on a deeper level. (Some might even call me a crazy cat lady, but I wear that label proudly!) This allows me to have deeply fulfilling bonds and relationships with any cat, as I can learn to attune to their needs and provide care in a personalized way. I've owned 3 cats over my lifetime and it is my passion to care for them. I have experience with all ages, from kittens that need more attention & play, to senior citizens that require more advanced care and compassion. Being an exclusive cat sitter, I offer premium cat-care service beyond the standard feeding, litter cleaning, and occasional check-ins. I will go above and beyond to make sure your cat feels loved, taken care of, and happy while you're away. I spent lots of time cuddling with, petting, grooming, talking to, and playing with my own cats throughout my life. I would treat your cat as one of my own and provide it the same level of care, comfort and attention as I would to my own fur babies. If you're looking for a responsible, reliable, friendly, warm, and loving care-taker for your feline friend, look no further! I would be happy to help you look after your cat(s) and even your home while you are away. I provide drop-in visits, house sitting in your home, or boarding in mine. Please contact me for questions, details, availability, or scheduling a meet and greet. Thank you and I look forward to meeting you and your kitty!

Aamina took such amazing care of Pluto while I was away! 🐾 She was so caring, reliable, and attentive, and it was clear Pluto felt comfortable and loved with her. I really appreciated the updates and the peace of mind knowing my cat was in such good hands. Highly recommend Aamina to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving cat sitter! ❤️

Aamina is awesome! She clearly loves and understands cats. There aren’t many sitters that specialize in cats, so it brought us peace of mind having our kitty with Aamina. We also appreciated the daily updates!

Super grateful for Aamina who took such good care of my cats while I was away. She provided updates every day and was very attentive to their needs while boarding them.

Aamina did a wonderful job babysitting our foster cat Cilantro while we were out of town. We were hoping that the experience would give us some insight into whether this cat would be suited for a household with other felines, and Aamina was very patient and conscientious about introducing him to the other cats in her care. She definitely lives up to the “cat whisperer” moniker, and we’ll for sure board with her again!

Aamina was amazing! She was super communicative, sending thoughtful updates about the kitties every day—how they ate, played, and settled in. She took extra care with all of our belongings and made the whole experience stress-free. Can’t recommend her enough!

From the very first message, to the really organized meet and greet, to the thoughtful drop off and pick up, and the consistent pictures and videos capturing how well they were cared for, Aamina went above and beyond boarding my 3 cats! What truly touched us was the thoughtful surprise when we picked them up: Aamina had prepared a goodie bag with treats, new toys, and even included a handwritten card. It was such a kind and personal touch that showed how much she cares. If you are looking for someone who treats your cats like family, Aamina is it. We are so grateful and won’t hesitate to book with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I run a multi-cat boarding house which means other cats may be present during your kitty's stay. Rabies vaccination tag #s are required for boarding. I am also available for house sitting and PM-only drop-in visits.

A typical day

I start all my visits off with a friendly greeting and pets for your kitty. I talk to them and make sure they are doing okay, play with their favorite toys, and make sure to give them lots of pets and cuddles (if they want it). This allows me to put the focus of my care on not just the chores to be done, but the cat themselves! I will then complete all necessary tasks such as cleaning the litter, changing as needed, feeding, filling/changing water bowls, grooming, administering any special medications or any other special needs. Before leaving, I may provide them with treats (if allowed), more pets, cuddles, and play to their heart's content. I make sure the house is in the same condition or better each time I leave, and double check to make sure all doors are locked and tasks/instructions complete!

Cats
Aamina can host up to 4 pets per night
-Must be up to date on Rabies Vaccination and Provide Rabies Tag # for Boarding -Must be spayed/neutered for Boarding -Must be comfortable with other cats for Boarding (I separate and slowly socialize new cats so intros are always supervised). -No Cameras inside Home (for House Sitting Only), Outside Cameras OK -Cats Only (No Dogs in home for House Sitting or Drop-Ins) Please provide an emergency Vet Contact, including Vet and/or hospital name, location, and phone number. I also recommend providing a local emergency contact, especially if you will be traveling internationally or be somewhere unreachable. It is also good to know where the carriers are for drop-ins/house sitting. Written instructions are also helpful, though optional, particularly if feeding or care needs are more complex. Otherwise, I will review all details with you during our meet and greet to ensure I have a good understanding of your cat's specific needs.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
