Services

David can care for

Cats

Availability

I am currently in graduate school to become an art therapist. I am a full time student and work part time. The services I am comfortable to provide and well versed in are daily check-ins, and overnight stays for cats. I do have experience with providing oral medication as well. I am seeking more fulfilling work that aligns with my values of helping others and the community. I am extremely excited to begin working with cats to bring more joy into my life while also helping support my fellow pet parents!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a year old tabby named Tino. He’s a bit of an adventurer and loves going out on walks. He’s also very smart and I train him to do tricks and he gets his favorite treats in return.

Information David P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat has any special needs or behaviors that I may need to be more attentive to. That way, I can prepare myself better for our first meeting to introduce myself to your pet in the safest and comfortable way possible. If your pet has any certain toys or activities they enjoy most, let me know and I will make sure they get to play with this toy or perform this activity over anything else! To ensure your pet gets the proper play time/ exercise, please let me know of their activity level.

A typical day

I will have yours and your pets best interest at heart when caring for them. I ensure that I will get to know your pet and treat them as my very own! I like to take my time to get to know your pets and bond with them to make them feel safe and comfortable around me. I would be more than happy to send text and photo updates to put your mind at ease while your pet is in my care. Any and all instructions will be followed to maintain the safety and security of your home when providing walks, daily check-ins an/or overnight stays! I am an organized and detail-oriented person who will respect your home, your belongings, and most importantly--your pet.

The best cat sitter to date. He is extremely responsible and our grumpy cat loves him. Highly recommend.

David performed all that we asked of him, and more. Our cat is not a lap cat, often standoffish, especially around strangers. David has good a rapport as could be expected with our cat Jasmine. David also performed some other favors for us, even bringing in the mail and packages every few days, I should also mention that David faithfully sent us a photo or video of Jasmine on each of his visits. I only wish Jasmine were more personable to reciprocate the care he gave her. We will be happy to seek David's services again, and hope he is available when our ned arises!

David did a phenomenal job watching my cats! He followed all of our instructions and was very communicative throughout. My cats love him! They would rush right up to him every time he walked in the door.
