Caroline can care for

Cats

Availability

Taking care of animals is what I do! I have flexibility to play with your pets, feed them, take them to medical appointments, etc. Enjoy your time away from home knowing your pets are happy! My availability radius does not show McMinnville, but I am available there as well! If I have a conflict, such as illness or an emergency, my husband, Charles is on my team and will care for your pet. He is very active in our cats' lives, and has extensive rabbit experience.

Safety, trust & environment

I mostly offer my services as drop in to your home. I I will care for your pet as I would my own. I have six cats, they vary in age and temperament from 2 years and semi feral to 14 years and special needs.

Information Caroline K. would like to know about your pet

Cats are my specialty. I am very familiar with all sorts of cats, and I rescue feral so I am familiar with "cat-ittudes." If your cats wants to be left alone, that is fine. If your cat wants to play, or just sit on a lap, that is great. Loves being brushed? No problem!

A typical day

My cat clients enjoy the toys I bring and leave with them to encourage exercise and stimulation. We play with random toys, and the cats that are harnessed trained go on walks around the property. Everyone gets play time and pets and lap time snuggles if they want. I have two cats who are very shy, so we don't play but they peek at me around a corner. So.etimes treats draw them out, sometimes I don't even see them. Whatever your cat's personality, I am happy to be there.

Every cat deserves a special sitter

Cat care experience

Cats have always had a special role in my life. I have never been without one (or more). I currently have six. Two are special needs. I have adopted from shelters, been a foster, and rescued and rehabilitated feral cats. I feel a special bond with every cat meet. I have cared for shy cats who I rarely see, except for them peeking around a corner. I have cared for cats who need extra attention while their humans are gone. I have experience administering eye drops, oral medications and SQ injections. I am happy to trim nails. I am fanatic about clean litter boxes and water bowls/fountains and food dishes. I treat your cats as I would my own. My goal is to give you piece of mind while you are gone, knowing that your feline companions are well cared for, happy, and loved while you are gone. I have not been on Rover very long, but I can provide written references in addition to those on Rover if you would like to schedule a meeting and greet.

Caroline is wonderful. Caring, responsive, flexible, and a true cat whisperer. She went above and beyond. It’s such a comfort to know our fur baby is so well cared for and looked after when we are away.

This was the first time we hired a cat sitter, since we now have an indoor cat. We were delighted with Caroline's care for our two cats. She is dependable and reliable and she clearly knows cats very well. She went above and beyond the agreed care since one of the cats developed an eye issue and needed drops. She is detail oriented and very good at keeping in touch with us while we were away. We recommend Caroline without reserve and we look forward to using her feline expertise in the future when we are away from home !

Caroline has extensive knowledge of cats and rabbits. She has rescued many farel cats and cared for them until they were adopted by a loving family. She is well versed in cat behaviors and has a passion for cats. She is reliable, has good communication and made me feel comfortable about leaving my animals in her care. I highly recommend Caroline.
