Pet care experience

A loving cat-lady 🐈✨

I have loved cats since forever! My husband and I have had cats of our own since 2018. Unfortunately, we cannot take our cats with us to Sweden, so I would like to share our love for cats and help cat owners in need of the services. I am experienced with taking care of cats across spectrum - age range (kitten to seniors), personalities (shy, anxious, high to low energetic, calm), different health conditions. I have experiences giving medication (mainly oral, but also have an experience with injection - though to note, I have no medical background), grooming, and reading each cat's individual personality to figure out what makes them feel safe and happy. Mostly, I simply enjoy their company: playing when they're up for it, or quietly chilling around them. ♥️

Fathia is truly fantastic! She's been alert, kind and most importantly my kitten absolutely adores her! Her experience really shines through.

Fathia took great care of our two cats while we were away for the summer. We felt very comfortable knowing they were safe and well looked after. She communicated well with us throughout, kept us updated, and was also very flexible when we had some last-minute changes to the arrangements. We really appreciated her help and would be happy to book her again!

We are very happy with Fathia taking care of our cat when we were travelling. Excellent communication, with photos and updates after each visit. We felt our cat was in very good hands. We will for sure ask her again if we are going to travel.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 69sqm apartment with my husband. I will mostly be taking care of the cats by myself, with my husband assisting me on the side. We live on the fourth floor and have no balcony. ⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤ 🌸 Boarding Service 🌸 What’s included: + Bowls, two litter boxes (56 x 39 x 28 cm), poop bags, scratching boards, and toys are available here. But of course, you are welcome to bring your own if you feel more comfortable. It is usually easier for the cats if they have something that smells like "home", such as their own toy or their favorite blanket. + Dry food from "Mjau" (Adult, Kött & Kyckling) is provided here. You are also welcome to bring your cat's own food, but the price will not be deducted. + Food and water bowls are cleaned 1-2x a day, water is changed twice a day, and the litter box is scooped and emptied 1-2x a day. + Feeding according to your instructions. + Scratching boards are provided here. But we do not have a cat tower. + I'll make sure your cat(s) get at least 30 minutes of playtime every day. Giving attention, such as petting and brushing, will be done whenever the cat(s) want it. + Updates with pictures and sometimes videos will be sent every day. What’s not included: - Transporting the cat(s). Unfortunately, we do not own a vehicle. We can help with pickup and drop-off for an additional fee. - Wet food and litter (cat sand) are not included. Please provide at least a bag of cat sand for the first few days. If it runs out, we will buy it for you, and you do not have to pay. - Grooming - Administering oral medication or injection (I can do this with an additional fee. Though to note, I do not have any medical background) For a longer boarding period, please feel free to discuss the total price if you have a set budget in mind. 🙂 ⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤⏤ 🌸 Drop-in Visit Service 🌸 What’s included per visit: + Feeding according to your instructions + Cleaning food and water bowls, changing water, scooping litter box + A 10-minute play time. Giving attention, such as petting and brushing, will be done whenever the cat(s) want it. + Updates with pictures and sometimes videos will be sent through Rover Cards. + Transport within a 1.5km radius from my place is included. What’s not included: - Transport fee outside of the 1.5km service radius (covering either time or distance). If the visit request is outside my service radius, I will let you know the transport fee, and you can decide whether to proceed. - Administering oral medication or injection (I can do this with an additional fee. Though to note, I do not have any medical background) All in all, no need to worry! We will make sure your cat(s) get the good treatment they deserve ☺️✨🐾

A typical day

On the first day(s), I usually let the cat(s) be and take their time exploring our apartment on their own. They usually will find their favorite spot and will approach us when they're ready. Depending on their personalities, some cats take longer to feel at home, while others do not seem bothered by being in a new environment. If we need to approach them, we will do it gently. Once they feel at home, I spend at least 30 minutes playing with them. We do 'hide and seek', or walk around the apartment with a thread on the floor so the cat(s) can catch it. Stroking and petting will be done whenever they want it. If needed, I also brush their hair once every two/a few days. If they do not feel like doing any of those, I will let them have their me-time. We love giving them all the love and attention they need. Anything that can make them happy, we'll do our best!

Cats
Takes only 1 client at a time
Fathia can host up to 4 pets per night
We believe every cat has a unique personality, so we would love to know their personality in advance! Also, let us know if you have any preferences, specific instructions, or treatments for your cats. Some points to get us started with: - Feeding time (how many times, what time) - Types of food are allowed (treats, how much? Are they interested in human food?) - Separation anxiety (do your cats have it? What are the signs? Meowing, puking, restlessness?) - Meowing habit (to rule out emergency signs) - Playing habit (how active can they be?) - Scratching habit (do they need a scratching board? Usually scratch on furniture?) - How long can your cat(s) be left alone?
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.
