Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat friend at your service
I've been around cats my entire life, raising them from playful kittens to beloved seniors. I currently have an older cat whom I absolutely adore. I'm experienced in administering medications. I also have a natural way with cats—helping even the most timid ones feel at ease. With a little patience, cats that are shy around strangers often end up curled up in my lap after just a few visits. DROP-IN VISITS for your cats include feeding (including feeding robots), changing water, administering medications, scooping litter boxes, play time, and grooming (when possible). I can also water houseplants, take out trash/recycling, and retrieve mail and packages. MEDICATIONS: I am happy to administer transdermal/topical medications (applied to skin/ear), compounded liquid medications, pills hidden in treats/food (if your cats eat them reliably), pills crushed and administered via a syringe (with vet approval - some pills cannot be crushed or altered), and insulin injections. For safety reasons, I am unable to provide direct oral pilling or subcutaneous fluids.

Ratings and reviews
Chelsey always takes great care of our two cats Birdie & Ripley! They warmed up to her right away.
Chelsey watched my two cats for a week and did a phenomenal job! She was patient, attentive to their needs and provided outstanding care for them while I was gone. I highly recommended Chelsey for any cat sitting needs!
Chelsey went above and beyond when she boarded our senior cat at her home. She sent pictures and was communicative about a possible medical issue. This was our first time working with Chelsey and the cat's first time being boarded (besides at the vet for surgery). He settled in well and I attribute that to her loving care. Definitely 100% recommend and will use again.
Chelsey was wonderful to work with and took great care of our two cats! I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for kind and attentive pet care. 🙂
Chelsey did such an amazing job with my baby Dijon! She sent daily updates and plenty of photos. My fur baby was cuddling on laps by day 3 and felt right at home.
Our cats’ second stay with Chelsea. They were so comfortable and happy .. we could enjoy our vacation knowing they’re well cared for. Chelsea sent us updates on them everyday and sent lots of pictures too!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I try to follow established routines as much as possible, provide fresh food and water, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I meet pets where they are at, whether it's giving them all the attention they want or letting them warm up to me from a distance. I'll always provide an update along with photos because being a pet owner, I know how nice it is to get updates about your pet.
A typical day
I like to understand the needs of your pet, whether to offer them space or provide them pets, play, and attention when they like. I want to make sure your pet is as comfortable as possible!

- There are several things I would like to know about your pet. What is their routine like? What time do they eat? What level of activity do they need? What treats they like? What are their favorite ways to snuggle up and be cozy while in the house?
