About Betteena M.
Communication
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I always keep in mind that every cat is different and try my best to approach carefully. I am very patient and understand that trust is built overtime. I meet cats where they are at while also ensuring their safety and well-being! As a pet parent, I understand that it can be nerve-wracking to leave your fur babies behind. I am very communicative and send as many updates as possible (usually during my visit and after). I describe (and document, if possible) in detail the tasks I performed, what I observed, and any general updates. I work to give my clients peace of mind from far away!
Information Betteena M. would like to know about your pet
If your cat has any preferences or particular ritual they prefer, please let me know and I'm happy to implement it during our time together. I would also like to what I can expect from your pet, such as behaviors or demeanor. This helps guide my approach and allows me to create an environment that is comfortable for all of us.
A typical day
I will always take your input on what kinds of activities your cat enjoys. I have also implemented snuffle mats and treat hunts as additional enrichment. Though too much screen time is bad, if a cat enjoys Cat TV I will put it on for them. And if they're willing, I will give lots of snuggles, pets, and scratches!

Cat care experience
I have been a cat mom for the past two years. I found my babies in my dad's backyard, and it was love at first sight! Since then, I've had such a deep love for all cats and appreciate the diversity in their personalities and temperaments. In terms of skills, I successfully socialized two feral cats and have experience providing basic care such as feeding, administering liquid and topical medication, fur and teeth brushing, nail clipping and bathing. *I am open to negotiating a price for services. Finding affordable cat care should not be difficult! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you'd like to coordinate a cost that is reasonable for you and me :)
Reviews


Betteena saved my cat’s life. Truly. What was supposed to be routine pet sitting turned into a medical emergency for one of my cats while I was away, and I genuinely do not know what I would have done without her. My cat Harley became seriously ill, and she immediately stepped in without hesitation. She was flexible, updating her visits and adjusting her schedule around my cat’s medication needs. She monitored him constantly, administered medications, cleaned up after his accidents, and kept me updated nonstop. She didn’t just “watch” my pets. She saved Harley as if he were her own. In one of the most stressful moments imaginable, she stayed calm, proactive, compassionate, and unbelievably attentive. She noticed every detail, acted quickly, and handled everything with so much care and urgency. Because of her, Harley got help when he needed it most. I truly believe she saved his life. On top of all of that, she still made sure my other cat was equally loved, comforted, and cared for. My home was immaculate, communication was constant, and I never once questioned whether my pets were safe in her hands. Finding someone you trust with your animals is rare. Finding someone who loves and protects them as fiercely as you do is almost impossible. She is that person. I will forever be booking Betteena and recommending her to every pet parent I know. If you are lucky enough to book her, do it immediately. There are not enough stars, words, or thank-yous in the world for what she did for my family. Harley and I will forever be grateful.

I can’t say enough good things! I’m super attached to my cat, so leaving him for the first time was very little stressful for me but Betteena made the entire experience feel so easy and reassuring. She was incredibly flexible with scheduling, which I really appreciated, and went above and beyond with updates. She sent so many photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cat absolutely loved her, he looked relaxed, happy, and totally himself in every update. You can tell she genuinely cares, and that makes all the difference. I would 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pet.
Betteena is the first person who comes to mind when thinking of someone to take care of a pet. She is exceptionally attentive to what your pet needs, and follows instructions to a T. She goes above and beyond to ensure your pet is happy! You can rely on her because she is so responsible as both a person and a pet caregiver. Always feeling like my pet is in good hands with her, and I can rest assured that my pet is having a blast with her. I highly recommend her!
