Availability
My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to plan visits and care around your pet’s needs. I’m available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and boarding for 1–2 cats in our home (as long as they’re comfortable around other cats). Because I share my home with four cats of my own, I’m very familiar with feline routines and personalities. I’m also happy to care for exotic pets and can administer medications if needed thanks to my experience working as a veterinary assistant. Whether I’m visiting your pet at home or welcoming them into ours, I’ll make sure they receive consistent, attentive care while you’re away. 🐾

Safety, trust & environment
I have four adopted cats who I love SO much! As someone who formerly worked as a zookeeper, in an aquarium, and a vets office I know how important it is to create a positive environment for them as well as provide constant changing environmental enrichment (toys!) to keep them mentally stimulated and out of the trouble they tend to get into when they are bored! I never use negative reinforcement, only positive reinforcement for good behaviors.

Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet
o make sure your cat is comfortable and well cared for, it’s helpful for me to know: • Feeding routine and favorite treats • Litter box setup and cleaning preferences • Personality (shy, playful, cuddly, prefers space, etc.) • Favorite toys or activities • Any medications or medical needs • Hiding spots or places they like to nap • Anything that stresses them out (loud noises, strangers, etc.) • Your vet information and emergency contact Every cat is different, so the more I know, the better I can make sure their routine stays calm, consistent, and stress-free while you’re away. 🐾
A typical day
A typical visit starts with checking in on your cat, refreshing food and water, and scooping the litter box. I’ll make sure their space is clean and everything looks good. Then it’s cat time—play with their favorite toys, brushing, treats, or just keeping them company. I always follow your cat’s lead, whether they’re playful, shy, or prefer supervising from a cozy spot. If your cat needs medication or special care, I’m comfortable administering it and making sure their routine stays consistent. Before I leave, I’ll send you updates and photos so you know your cat is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Cat care experience
Hi! I’m Courtney, your local cat-obsessed sitter who truly believes cats make life better. I’ve had cats my entire life and currently share my home with four very spoiled kitties of my own, so I completely understand that every cat has their own personality, routines, and quirks. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for years to care for their cats while they’re away, and I treat every cat I watch like one of my own. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers to rule the house from a cozy window perch, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I also have experience caring for cats with medical needs. Two of my own require medication, and I’ve worked with animals professionally in the past, so I’m comfortable administering medications and providing attentive, compassionate care when extra support is needed. My goal is simple: keep your cat happy, safe, and stress-free while you’re away—and send you plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re in good paws. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely loves cats and will care for yours like family, I’d love to help! Purr-haps we’re the perfect match? 🐱
Reviews
Courtney was amazing! So flexible and helpful. She even took care of the fish. She goes above and beyond to communicate with you on your pets. I couldn’t be happier. I will be definitely rebooking with her for all my needs.
Was so wonderful with my two kitties!! Very attentive, communicated well and took great care of my cats and home
Courtney was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She went above and beyond to make sure our baby was well cared for and followed all our instructions exactly. I really appreciated the pics sent at each visit and the thorough notes each time. We will definitely be choosing Courtney again!
Courtney was amazing with my kitty. She took on our last minute booking and an unexpected extra visit. My cat instantly took to her during our meet and greet. Her care and attention showed through her photos and updates. Highly recommend!
