Availability

I don't work, Rover is only my job and I'm a university student, so I am mostly at home during the week. My husband is a server. This flexible schedule allows us to be available for your cat's needs. We can arrange drop-off and pick-up times to suit your schedule. If the proposed times don’t work for you, please let us know, and we’ll do our best to accommodate a time that fits your needs. We’re here to help and ensure your cat gets the best care possible!

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, your cat’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. Our spacious townhouse provides a comfortable and secure environment, with no dogs, no other cats, and no children, ensuring a calm and focused atmosphere for your cat. We maintain a clean and cat-friendly space, with secure windows and doors to prevent any escapes. I make sure that all cat-related items, such as litter boxes and food bowls, are kept clean and hygienic. Trust is essential, and I build it by offering consistent, loving care. I take the time to understand each cat’s individual needs and preferences, ensuring they feel comfortable and cared for. My husband and I are both cat lovers, and we work as a team to provide attentive care. If any issues arise, we communicate promptly and transparently with you. If you choose to have your cat cared for in your home, I will respect your space and maintain a clean environment. I will follow your instructions carefully and ensure your cat feels safe and loved. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requests regarding the safety and care of your cat.

🐾I Care for Your CAT with Love!🐱

Pet care experience

Hello! I love cats and believe that every cat has a unique character. I adore and respect their funny movements and quirks. Spending time with your cat always lifts my mood, and I ensure that your cat will be happy and well-cared for in my company. I have 11 years of experience caring for cats. I had a beloved cat named Karlov who recently passed away. I'm not yet ready to adopt a new cat because I still miss him dearly. Until I am ready to welcome a new feline friend into my home, I want to share my love and care with your cat. Caring for your cat helps fill the void, and in turn, your cat will be loved and cherished. What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to comprehensive care. I have experience administering medications, ensuring that your cat receives any necessary treatments on time and with ease. Additionally, I am passionate about maintaining a clean and healthy environment for your cat. I take great care in deep cleaning litter boxes and keeping their space spotless. We are a two-person team—my husband and I are both cat lovers. If I am not at home, he will be there with your cat. Your cat will never be hungry for love and attention. I live in a spacious townhouse with plenty of room for your cat to explore and be happy, especially if you choose cat boarding. We only care for cats—no dogs—so your cat will feel safe and comfortable in a dog-free environment. Additionally, we only take one client at a time, ensuring your cat receives our undivided attention and care. Please contact me with any requests or questions. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Thank you!

Gokhan and Sue are fantastic! They are so communicative, caring, and thoughtful. They really get to know your cats, and genuinely care about them, playing in ways that will engage your cat and respecting their boundaries. They have great attention to detail, and provide excellent photos throughout the session. You know you can trust them to take great care of your babies! Thank you so much!

Barnaby had a blast, and I love all of the silly pictures I got of him while I was away. It's always tough leaving my little guy, but I feel so much better knowing that he's being taken such good care of. Highly recommend if you're looking for a sitter with great communication and a lot of genuine care for your pet.
