I work full time, with some flexibility as to when I'm needed in office. I often work 1-2 days a week from home, and am able to get to the office late or leave early most days. My usual schedule is 8 - 4 so even in a heavy work week I have plenty of time for a morning visit or afternoon playtime!

Safety, trust & environment

First and foremost, I follow your instructions since you know your pet best! After that I try my best to understand the signals your pet is giving and provide the best care possible. For cats I offer play, treats, and pets while respecting their boundaries. And of course no matter the pet, you can expect a plethora of photos 🙂

Information Abigail C. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know the dos and don'ts for your pets! What are they particular about, what do they like or dislike, favorite treats, activities, etc

A typical day

I adapt my plans to your pets needs! Depending on your cat's personality I might play games like treat fetch, or treat hide and seek. Other cats do better with water mats, string toys, or improvised treat puzzles based on what's around! If the cat is used to it and has either a harness and leash or an enclosed patio I'm happy to sit outside with them! For my boarding clients I often open my large patio door (there is still a screen barrier and I'm always supervising) so the cat can watch the squirrels and birds in the park below my balcony and get some outside sniffs in!

Pet care experience

I specialize in cat care, offering both in home boarding and drop in visits for your feline family members! Whether you cat needs a social and playful environment or requires calm patience to let their personality shine, my priority is to work within your cat's comfort levels to provide loving care and enrichment to every cat I work with! My services include: • Daily feeding, fresh water, and litter maintenance • Playtime and enrichment puzzles catered to your cat's personality • Light grooming: brushing, nail filing and clipping (only if the cat is comfortable with it) • Topical and oral medication administration • Regular photo and text updates! For my boarding clients: I only take one family at a time so rest assured your cats will have my full attention and run of my home during their stay! I've spent years working in shelters and have learned how to earn the trust of nervous, spicy, and energetic cats. My goal is provide every cat that enters my care with earnest consideration! Your cat's comfort, routine, and personality always come first with me!

Fantastic cat sitter! My very shy cat loved her and let her pet often (which is unusual!). She sent many pictures and made sure I knew that my precious cat was safe and cared! I will rebook her for sure in the future!

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.
