Catastic Dog and Cat Sitter!
Pet care experience
Hello, I'm Cat :). I'm a vet tech full-time and part-time pet sitter. I have over 15 years experience working and taking care of pets! I am certified in dog and cat CPR. I spent a large amount of time in my undergrad working at a pet boarding facility where I was in charge of the wellbeing of boarding dogs and cats. I have a master's degree in Conservation Biology and a Bachelor's degree in Animal Science from U of I (Go Illini!). I love ALL animals (small ones too) and spoiling them is my specialty. In my spare time I foster kittens and bottle babies for fun. I'm free early mornings (starting at 5-6am) and usually anytime after 6pm on weekdays (sometimes Tuesdays and Thursday can be a little later depending on emergencies/surgeries that day). Weekends I have full availability. My rates are flexible. I'm a very friendly and reliable caretaker. I usually advertise to cat owners or dog owners that have someone that can either let their dog out in the afternoon or have another way of going outside (like a doggie door/puppy pad) or the rare diamond of a dog that only wants to go potty in the early morning/late evening. I use to work with sharks so if you have an aquarium that needs up keeping I can also help out there. Birds? Reptiles? Chinchillas? Mice? Aliens? I don't discriminate and will take care of them all! If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to contact me :).
Reviews
Cat was amazing as usual! She takes such good care of our kitty Monty and is extra patient with him because she knows he’s a nervous boy. I feel so much better being able to enjoy some time away knowing he’s being looked after by someone who truly cares about him. Thank you Cat! We appreciate you!
Cat is such a thoughtful and caring sitter! He highly recommend her services. The fact that she is a vet tech is a bonus.
Cat is an amazing sitter - friendly, always helpful and took such great care of our very antisocial kitty! I know he’s in good hands when she comes to take care of him!
Cat always goes above and beyond. I totally trust her to take care of our cat and watch over the house while we are away. Such a comfort to have her! Highly recommend!!

A typical day
In my spare time I jog with my half border collie half pitbull dog. He also enjoys the occasional car rides, especially to Walgreens (they give him milk bone cookies). He also loves playing fetch and tug-of-war when he's not busy swimming in his baby pool. I'll treat your dog the same as mine.
