Your Cat's Guardian Angel in Macomb

Pet care experience

I'm a cat-care expert. I recently moved to Macomb from Seattle and am taking new clients. I'm a cat-lover to the bone. I have two kitties of my own right now and have always had cats. I'd love to be your cat-sitter. I'm honest, respectful, a great communicator, and a retired professional who now makes her living as an author. I live in Macomb, and I have my own transportation. I can spot a hairball at a hundred paces, and I have over 40 years of experience with litter boxes. I have experience giving all kinds of medicine to cats (pills, liquid, salve, and shots). In the interest of transparency, I do not have official training as a vet tech. I can care for small dogs as long as they don't mind that I smell like cats. :) I was a video-game writer for a couple of decades but have recently turned my focus to writing novels. This means my schedule is extremely flexible. Recently, I needed someone to care for my cats while I was on a trip, and I realized how much stress it caused me. I was so worried about who would care for them. I'd like to relieve this stress for others and make going away more peaceful. Wishing you all the best, Angel... Fully vaccinated. Due to home responsibilities, I'm not available until 8am, except during an overnight stay. I have no other restrictions. For overnight stays, I'll be at your place between 8pm and 8am, at least. I will likely be there longer than that--I'll usually arrive earlier and leave later. I can't stay for 24 hours, though, because I have to come home to take care of my own kitties. [WINTER CAVEAT: In terrible road conditions, I may have a hard time getting to your kitties. I will do my best, and I will work with you to give them extra food and water so they can weather a longer time alone. I will keep an eye on the forecast for you and will let you know if there's a chance something might come up. Thank you so much for understanding! (Note, this especially applies if you live somewhere off the main roads.)]

We highly recommend Angela as a pet sitter! She truly cared about our cats and kept them entertained with lots of playing. She also went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for when the roads were shut down during a snowstorm. Angela's love for cats came through in all her communications with us.

Angel is thoughtful and intuitive around my cat. She’s careful to slowly introduce herself each time so he’s not freaked out by the new person when his people are away. She’s a very gentle personality to have around for the people, too. Having interacted with a lot of different cats at this point, she’s got a knack for putting them at ease. Highly recommend.

Angela cared for my partner's and my two kitties on more than one occasion! And she was truly a god-send!! She always made sure to send us videos of them, or at least Tiki since he loved to come out and play with her when she pulled out the feather toys on a string. Reese warmed up to her after a few watches, and with how tough of a judge of character Reese is I knew it meant she was in good hands with Angela. She was always responsive whenever we had questions for her while we were away, and she was always polite and professional. I would recommend her as a sitter, 100%. I mean, I requested her over a pool of others because she was truly the best!!
