Su's Caring
Hi there! I grew up in Istanbul which many of you would know, is a cat heaven! I love animals because they are honest, pure with their expression of love and appreciation. They live the day as if there is no tomorrow, which personally is something I can look up to. All my life I have been surrounded by multiple pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, snails... now I have two cats, whom I get sad whenever I am away from. I understand how important and emotional it is to find a good sitter when we cannot be around, someone to take care of them as if their own. In your absence I will be a mama, play date, caregiver, and a reliable friend to your little babies. I am a very patient person with compassion, have trained eyes for detail, and endless love for animals. I have been taking care of my partner's family dogs and mini horses whenever they go out of town for the past five years, alongside with my brother's four pawed clients in the last couple years.

Ratings and reviews
Another great week with Rolly and Su! We’re happy they’ve become fast friends. We appreciate that Su is always on time and follows the care instructions. Will continue to book!
Su’s first visit with Rolly went swimmingly! He warmed up to her instantly and even greeted her with a toy. She’s punctual and followed all of our instructions, which we so appreciated. We’re happy for her to care for Rolly again!
Ipek Su took care of our dog and special needs cat overnight for a couple of days, and we’d definitely recommend her and work with her again. Our cat has a lot of unique needs due to his disability that other sitters have struggled with, and is slow to trust strangers, and she did a great job making sure he got everything he needed while prioritizing his comfort. Our dog also had a great time with her. She was very easy to communicate and plan with, and sent frequent updates and pictures.
Ipek Su has been my close friend for almost 20 years, and she is the reason I love cats! I was indifferent to cats until we started feeding random strays together one day. That became one of our favorite things to do when we meet, feeding stray dogs and cats whenever we came across them in Istanbul (they are everywhere). Ipek Su is the kindest and the most compassionate person I know, I would trust her with my pets any day, with my eyes closed!
I’ve known İpek Su for 5 years, and she loves animals more than anyone I know. She’s always thinking about how she can be more mindful of their needs, making sure they get plenty of playtime and proper care and attention. She has two very happy cats, and with them as well as cats and dogs she takes care of, she pays great attention to the particular ways they may need to be handled or cared for. She’s responsible, communicative, and will definitely go the extra mile for an animal. Everyone needs someone trustworthy, kind, and reliable to take care of their fur babies, and that is İpek Su for sure.
Ipek Su, also my sister, is a loving person towards all pets! She and I grew up in an environment where we had multiple pets at home, mostly a combination of cats & dogs at the same time. We were taught to respect them, and care for them while enjoying their company was always a given. As a pet sitter myself, I always trust her with my clients and their beloved pets if I have to be out of town. The feedback I have gotten from them have always been overwhelmingly positive - and she even took weeks in training & adjusting for a very reactive dog and made best friends with him in the end! You cannot go wrong choosing her for your pets' needs! Strongly recommend!

Schedule
I'm an aspiring artist working from home, have plenty of time to share my love and care, on most days. I can board couple bonded cats, just as I foster sometimes for a limited time.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a two bedroom apartment with two cats, and able to keep the cats separated for the time of boarding. Just as how I introduced my cats slowly, very slowly, I am well aware that it is never a good idea to put them together all of a sudden. One of my cats never met a dog before, so I would not board any dogs at this time. I care for pets as my own, keeping them safe, clean, well-fed and watered, and well played. I believe we owe them at least that much keeping them in our homes.
Pets
A typical day
I love being active, which is great news for your dog! I will run around, be silly, play all the games they love with them. Would go for long or short walks, depending on your pet's specific needs. Cat care with me means hunt, catch, and eat! Play, play play, eat, eat, eat, rub, rub, rub, pur pur pur, sleep.
