Information Emily J. would like to know about your pet

Please inform me of any known allergies, aggressions toward other animals and fears ! If they are known to try & sneak out of doors/ windows let me know so I can be extra mindful of that. A summary of their usual play routines, amount of food/ treats to give each day is also helpful.

A typical day

I love to provide all animals with opportunities to play and explore while I care for them. For cats- most can’t refuse a feathered wand but if they’re more into brushing/ pets, that’s fine too!

Pet care experience

I have been a “cat lady” since I was very young! I have had and looked after many cats over the years and look forward to meeting yours ! I love fostering kittens & have experience giving oral & topical medications. I have a bearded dragon as well as my 2 cats, please let me know if you have reptiles/ other animals I can help with. I will be moving into a home in September 2026 and will be able to host your fur babies for daytime or overnight stays. I work 100% remotely so I will be with your pet the entire time.

Emily was the best! She watched our cat while we were away for our wedding and gave me such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. She came everyday to feed him his wet food and his medication. Our cat snuggled right up to her as if he’d known her forever. She sent a nice report card and so many good photos from each visit. We also came home to the sweetest handwritten card from her, wishing us congratulations and sharing more about her visits with our cat. We feel so lucky to have found Emily and will most definitely be calling her again next time we’re away!

Emily went above and beyond as a cat sitter. Not only did she become our cat’s new best friend, she also cared for our plants by bringing all of them inside after our apartment decided to spray for bugs. She even brought her own tarp to protect the carpet! From beginning to end she was professional, down to earth and very caring. Each visit she sent pictures of her playing/grooming our cat. I would hire her again in a heartbeat, I trust her more than family. Thank you Emily!
