Annika can care for

Cats

Availability

I have a full-time remote job with decent flexibility. I love routines, but can also often help out short-notice if needed. Available weekdays and weekends. I took a break from Rover while I navigated a job transition. I’m back in a rhythm and looking forward to jumping back into pet care!

Safety, trust & environment

Building a strong foundation of trust is central to all of my relationships—with both people and pets. It’s important to me that *you and your animals* feel completely secure and confident with my care. In addition to trust, I prioritize safety by following all your guidelines and taking necessary precautions to maintain a safe space for your animals.

Information Annika W. would like to know about your pet

Please tell me all about your animals! Their personalities, their goofy habits, their routines. I love getting to know animals and interacting with each of them authentically.

A typical day

Whatever your pet enjoys, I’m ready to engage in! At home with my cats, I construct forts, play fetch, and build obstacle courses. Yes, you read that correctly :)

Cat care experience

Cat care is my love and speciality. Right now, I have a 3-year old, energetic cat and an 10-year old blind + epileptic cat at home. To give you a glimpse into our world: our days include morning play, oral medication, “sister separation time”, and 2 PM canned food (… yes, 2 PM on the dot. They’ll let you know if you’re late.) Cats are excellent communicators, and I’m an engaged listener. Once you see how loved, comfortable, and secure a cat feels with engaged attention, it’s hard to do anything less. They deserve the love! My cat care experience includes, but is not limited to: • Litter box deep cleans • Nail trimming • Timed meals • Interactive play • Window adjustments for optimal sun • Respecting personal space, until invited otherwise • Updates as frequently (or infrequently) as you’d like

Annika was absolutely wonderful. She sent us tons of pictures and was great with our cats. She quickly endeared herself to our exceptionally scaredy cat and you could see in all the pictures how much attention and affection they got. Annika communicated super well and went above and beyond to ensure all of their needs were met. She will now be our first call when we need someone to watch our critters. Cannot say enough good things about her.

Annika watched my 3 cats for a week and did great with them. She took good care of them, asked good questions, and sent plenty of pictures. She got my cats to relax and be comfortable around her quickly. Would book again!

Annika has always been extremely caring, organized, and responsible! She loves treating my pets like her own. I know I can trust Annika as she's very dependable and I always feel like I can take a deep breath knowing they are well loved/spoiled when she's around.

Annika is the best sitter, and overall one the best humans we know! She’ll go the extra mile to make sure your pets are getting everything they need, and then some. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals!
