The Furry Godmother

Pet care experience

I am back after a hiatus due to school! I've taken care of cats, dogs, parrots, aquatic life and even a rabbit since I was 16 years old. I specialize in care for domestic cats and parrots of all kinds (though I have a strong love for parakeets and cockatiels.) I've cared for all my friend's cats, from kittens to senior cats, and from housecats to farm cats. I also have experience giving medication to cats. I find caring for cats extremely therapeutic for me. They are gentle friends with very distinct personalities. Cats help improve our quality of life by their companionship, even it's for a matter of minutes, hours or decades. Besides my experience caring for pets, I've also worked with therapy cats and dogs, and volunteered at local cat rescues. An animals well-being is the number one priority for me. I ONLY care for cats at the moment. I have no problem if you have birds in the house either. I work remotely through the computer , so I have plenty of time to be a companion to your feline (or feathered) friend. My job lets me accommodate as many breaks as necessary and also allows me to have a keen eye on your friend. I have weekends completely open, and am able to work days, evening or nights. I accommodate your pets needs. The safety of my client, their home and their pet is my #1 concern. I always have my phone available and I'm prompt in responding and sending text messages, and answering phone calls. I always keep keys tightly secured in a lock box and l leave a home in the same or better condition than I arrived in it. Please feel free to tell me how I can't make this purrtastic experience for you, and your friends! I am also more than happy to provide names and contact information for references.

I am so happy with Fernanda’s connection with my cats. Even my very shy cat made an appearance. That is quite something. Thanks Fernanda.

Absolutely wonderful! Fernanda took such good care of our cats and eased our worries about leaving them. She sent tons of pictures and videos and made sure they were taken care of and loved. We will definitely be using her again!

I am so grateful that we found Fernanda to look after our cat while we were away on vacation. She was reliable and thorough. Her communication was great and we really looked forward to her daily updates, pictures and video. She went above and beyond what I asked in terms of washing dishes and keeping things clean. I hope she is available the next time we go away as she did a wonderful job!

Fernanda was absolutely amazing while caring for our energetic kitty! She was professional, thoughtful, and sent lots of pictures and videos of our little guy while we were away. She even spent extra time on a drop in visit to provide extra love and cuddles. Would absolutely recommend her!

Safety, trust & environment

The safety of my client's pets and my clients home comes first. Anything that I can do to make this experience more comfortable for you or your furry friend I will do.

Information Fernanda G. would like to know about your pet

About any animal, let me know if they have any special needs or any behavioral attributes that I should be aware of. Also, let me know they're favorite things to do as well!

A typical day

With cats, I let them guide me in what they would like to do. Interactive games are must have for indoor cats, so I make sure I enjoy games with our feline friends. Create some kitty TV or obstacle courses for the more active cats.
