Looking to care for cats!

Pet care experience

I‘ve been a cat person my whole life! I started working on Rover 2 years ago after I lost my 16-year-old kitty, Sunny. I was motivated to start cat sitting because I wanted to be around cats but I wasn’t ready to adopt. I’ve worked with a few dogs but my focus is cats! That’s where my talents lie, and I’m eager to offer some cat-specific resources on this dog-centric app :) Within the last two years I’ve “adopted” two fabulous cats. I say “adopted” because my oldest, Maurie, just followed me into my apartment about a year ago, and I just rescued my kitten, Toulouse, from a gutter this year on Christmas! They couldn’t be more wonderful, and my partner takes care of them with me, so I still have plenty of time for all the other fabulous cats in my life! I’ve loved getting to meet so many cats, and I’m eager to meet more- of all ages, abilities, and breeds :) I’m also more than happy to administer any type of meds.

This is the second time we have hired Abigail to pet/house sit and she has been wonderful. My cats seem to really like her, even my shy kitty. I highly recommend her to care for your pets.

Abigail was an outstanding pet and house sitter. She communicated so well and sent photos and updates. We got home and our cats seemed so happy. She did an excellent job house/pet sitting. We will book her again and again!

Abigail did a great job with our 18-year-old cat and left the house exactly as she found it. Would highly recommend her!

Most of what I do is house-sitting and drop-ins. I’ll always ask for the specific details of your cat’s care, but in general I will treat them just like I would want my cats treated. I’ll always ask you for the house rules, and I promise to keep your home just as clean as you left it :) As for boarding- I live in a second floor apartment that’s easily accessible from outside. Its super cat-friendly. I have two cats of my own, a 2 year old and a 4 month old. They are fully vaccinated, flea treated, indoor only, very playful, and happy to have other cats around :)

Information Abigail S. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know as much as possible about you cat’s personality and typical care in advance! But no worries if we don’t get to it all. I’m always very available by phone and I will let you know as soon as I run into a question/problem.

A typical day

The activities that I do with cats depend on their personality and preferences. For energetic cats, I love play with them however they prefer. For extra timid cats, I’m more that happy to just exist near them. You and them can just let me know :)

I’m currently preparing to apply to medical school! It keeps me busy but my schedule is very flexible! I also do a lot of regular volunteer work, but I’ve been able to easily work around those schedules.
