If boarding cats, I have a separate, windowed room set up for them with toys and cat approved scratchers for them to vacation in. Whether attending to pets at their own home or mine, I am very careful to follow all specified directions and instructions for their care so they are as relaxed and calm as possible while you are away.

Information Abby W. would like to know about your pet

Medications, temperament, favorite toys, sounds or movements to avoid...your pet is as unique as you are, and I want to ensure they get the best possible care. Even if you think it is silly, please share! My cat for example LOVES to play fetch with their string toy, it really wears him out. So I like to make sure anyone watching him plays with him this way too :)

A typical day

Walks, fetch, tug of war, I have a go with your pet's personality, needs, and requirements attitude. But whatever the activity level, I strive to ensure your pet gets the exercise and stimulation they need to be healthy and happy!

Extremely knowledgeable and patient with new cats. Great updates as promised and extremely attentive and responsive. Would recommend to anyone looking for a new cat sitter. Syndra was extremely well taken care of!

She was very nice and treated my dog well but didn't really listen to what I informed her to do. She forgot to take my dog out for the last time and he ended up having an accident when I came home.
