Your cat is my soon to be BFF 💖

Pet care experience

I have had a cat in my life since I was very young, and began rescuing and adopting my own cats as an adult. 🐱 I currently work as a veterinary assistant at a cat only hospital, and spend all day caring for cats and learning better ways to care for your cats during sitting jobs! 🏥 I rescued all five of my cats as young strays, and many of them were sick when I found them. They are now thriving thanks to my perseverance and care! I will always do whatever it takes to ensure the health and comfort of my cats, and I will do the very same for your cats. ♥️ I have fostered cats and young kittens as well. No age is out of my area of expertise! I love caring for cats and love every cat I meet as if they were my own. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do to keep my cats happy and healthy, and that love and care extends to your cats as well! 🥰

I'm thrilled to leave a glowing review for Helena! She took care of our beloved cats while we were away, and her attention to detail was impeccable. Helena not only followed all instructions to the letter but also went above and beyond to ensure our fur babies were happy and comfortable. The frequent photo updates she sent melted our hearts and assured us that our cats were in excellent hands. We're incredibly grateful for her dedication and would trust her with our pets any time. Thank you, Helena, for your outstanding care!

We love having Helena watch our two cats. We’ve had her cat sit for us multiple times now. She’s quick to respond to text messages and really professional. She follows the instructions that we provide her with. If you’re looking for a cat sitter in the area, she’s great!

I work as a veterinary assistant at a feline only hospital, but I am able to do drop ins and house sitting requests around my work schedule. I typically do AM visits prior to my work day starting and PM visits once I am off of work. On my days off and on weekends, I am flexible and able to work around whatever scheduling needs you may have for your kitty!
