Safety, trust & environment

The safety of your pet in my care and your home is a priority for me. I will take the following steps on each visit: 1. Upon arrival I always want to greet the pet first. 2. Feeding and watering comes next. 3. Litter box will be tended to on each visit. 4. Clean up and proper disposal of food related containers, used dishes etc. 5. Clean up of any other “cat mishaps” 😹 6. I will spend quality time with the pet which I like to do at the end of the visit so I am not rushing to get everything else done in the proper way. 7. I can take photos and send notes per expectations of the pet parent. 6. Ensure that door is securely locked on my way out.

Information Catherine D. would like to know about your pet

Is your cat prone to hide when somebody comes to the house? Please let me know the spots so that I can make sure everything is ok on each visit.

A typical day

Is there something special your cat likes? A belly rub or chin scratch? Does a scratch on the scratching post merit special treat? A special toy they like to play with? Just let me know, I will be sure to incorporate those things into my visit.

Cat care experience

I love animals of all types and have had cats in my home since I was a young child. I know and understand the feeling that accompanies the need to entrust their care to someone else in my absence, therefore, I always do my utmost to make sure that when caring for someone else’s cat companion, that they feel comfortable during their time away. I will be glad to send photos and notes as to how everything is going during my visits. Over the years, I have gained experience with administering medications; pills and liquids along with subq fluid administration having nursed a few of my own cat companions when they developed kidney disease.

Another great experience with Cathy. She always makes our old boy, Larry feel comfortable and loved. And she does a great job giving him his daily meds, which he hates! Thanks again Cathy!!
