Your Ballard cat sitter💜😻
Pet care experience
Update: Oct 9th, 2023 Thank you for considering me to care for your kitty(ies)! If not evident by my profile, I love cats. If you pick me, I will treat your cat(s) like they are my own. I love them all from kittens to seniors, social to spicy kitties, and playful to snoozers! I’ve been strictly taking care of cats for over a year now and I love it. I would like to know what’s normal behavior and what is abnormal behavior of your cat(s), like pooping outside the box, not eating much while you're away, vomiting/diarrhea, or coughing/sneezing. If you have a nervous kitty, I would also like to know their favorite hiding spots. I love brushing cats, so if your cat(s) enjoys being brushed please let me know! I have experience giving medications ranging from oral, injectable, and topical, and experience with animals' dietary restrictions (ie allergies). My dog requires daily medication and can be high maintenance, so I understand how scary it is leaving them with a stranger💜 I promise to always give them my full attention (or as much as they’ll tolerate) while in my care! I signed up for Rover because I want(ed) to adopt a cat, but I don’t need another animal at this time. I figured this way I could get my fix of playing and caring for another cat without needing to bring one home! Please let me spoil your cat with love, pets, and playtime! 😻
Reviews
Janette always does a fantastic job caring for our cats. She sends plenty of pictures and makes sure that everything is taken care of. Great communication and our cats love her.
This is our second time booking Janette and our kitties love her! 😻 We highly recommend working with her as she always provides us with such detailed check-ins and was flexible with key drop offs.
One out of two cats loves Janette; - becoming a playful purring machine when she’s here. The other cat morphs into a motionless lump on the bed safely hidden under the comforter; - shyly accepting a brief hello and a gentle touch. We appreciate Janette’s intuitive understanding of such diverse personalities.
Janette was absolutely wonderful and I felt my cat Ziggy was in the best hands while I was away! She sent very thorough updates and so many pictures which made me feel reassured he was happy, healthy and safe at home. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for care and look forward to using her help again in the future. Thank you so much Janette!

I treat all animals like they are my own! During my drop-in visits, I will feed, give medications, play, and clean the litter box. I do ask that you be flexible with the drop-in times OR tell me in advance if the drop-in time is strict (ie medication). At the end of my visit, I will update you with a detailed report and lots of pictures! I love interacting with animals and love to make them feel less anxious while you’re away. Tell me your cat's favorite toy(s)!

I currently attend school Monday through Friday from 1pm to 5pm, so my mornings and evenings are open! I've been in the veterinary field for over ten years but have recently decided to transition to working as a relief staff member. I have no intention to stop cat-sitting! ☺️
