Safety, trust & environment

I treat the felines with a great care. I get to know their individual personalities and nurture that during the visit. The most important thing is to keep them active and engaged during the visit. I have different toys and techniques to keep the cats interested in different ways. I keep the environment safe by watching what they are playing with and never leave anything behind or ever give anything to a cat that I am not instructed to.

Information Cynthia L. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what their habits are. I would like to know what their favorite things to do are and more importantly, I would like to know their temperament as to things like biting or maybe even hiding or things that scare them or upset them.

A typical day

I strive to provide stimulation by interacting with the cats with different kinds of toys and using different techniques to keep them busy and safe

Cynthia is absolutely fantastic! She spends a lot of time playing with our cat and gives her lots of attention and love. She communicates very well on what she gives our cat, on what my cat was doing, my cat's demeanor, etc. But Cynthia also goes above and beyond what we could ask or expect. Like she will take the scooped litter all the way out of the house (so the house doesn't stink) and she'll vacuum any scattered litter with pretty much every visit. We don't even do that every day, ha! 😆 She takes her cat sitting visits very serious and l can tell she loves her feline clients very much. I heard about Cynthia through a referral and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a kitty sitter. She's the best.
