Safety, trust & environment

In addition to basic care, eg food, litter, brushing, and playtime, I am also able to administer oral, eye drops, and ear medication. I also have experience using an aerokat inhaler for kitty asthma. With two cats of my own, I understand cat body language and will respect your cat's boundaries in personal space and petting preferences.

Information Diane H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know more about your cat's personality, their likes and dislikes, sensitivities, habits, quirks, and anything else specific pertaining to their care.

A typical day

I provide a variety of mental stimulation for cats with toys and a laser pointer. For my own cats, I incorporate wand toys, chasing lasers, spring toys, and crinkle balls. Diet permitting, I love to scatter treats in cat trees for kitties to find later after a visit ends.

Cat care experience

Hi there! I take pride in providing top-notch care to my clients. Integrity, transparency, and communication are my core pillars. I'm a current volunteer at Animal Haven, foster mom of kittens, and have two adopted furbabies of my own. I have experience with shy and / or spicy cats from volunteering and fostering so let me know if your kitty needs an extra gentle approach. I've fostered up to a litter of five spicy kittens whom I've won over with wet food, treats, and lots of patience. I also have experience in administering oral and topical medication as well as an inhaler for kitty asthma!

Diane is an excellent and reliable cat sitter. We’ve used her several times and feel very comfortable leaving our two cats in her care. She always provides lots of photos and details about her bit.

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.
