Safety, trust & environment

I offer drop-in service for cats at my clients homes. I have open communication with each pets owner about what they need and what is allowed in each home.

Information Catherine J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your cat has any special needs, such as diet and medication. I can only adiminister medication if they willingly take medication in pill pockets or can be approached calming with administering transdermal medications.

A typical day

I specialize with cats, so depending on their individual needs, I will play with cat wands and other favorite toys, brush them and talk to them.

Loving and Responsible Cat Sitter

Pet care experience

I have always had cats growing up as a child and into adulthood. I currently have a "special needs" kitty, meaning, she only loves me, and not so much other humans. I know that some cats are more than happy with a strange companion and some cats want their distance. The key to a successful relation with a cat is to respect their individual needs. I know this first hand. I can administer medication, as long as they are willing with a pill pocket or be approached calmly with a transdermal applied medication. I'm responsible and reliable. I'm recently retired and have a flexible schedule.

Catherine is an excellent cat sitter. She has a lot of experience with cats and is trustworthy. She followed the feeding schedule for our cat and most importantly spent time with her while we were away. Knowing that our cat gets care and love while we're out of town gives up peace of mind. I highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.

Catherine is very attentive and communicative. We felt so comfortable leaving town knowing she was there to spend time with our cat, Captain. Catherine handled every task, and made sure to send lots of great pictures. We would definitely book her again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
