Pet care experience
🐈⬛** I currently only accept catsitting clients ** 🐈 I have been cat sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since high school. Getting the opportunity to spend some quality time with cats is always the best part of my day. Visits always include photos and detailed messages on the day's activities. 🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈 Throughout my life, I've lived with cats who are diabetic, experiencing ailments including cancer, and nearing end of life. I'm experienced in giving cats medication, administrating insulin shots, and helping them be comfortable in times of sickness. 🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛ I have also fostered kittens in the past, so I am ready and able to help you with your feline friends at any stage of life. 🐈🐈⬛🐈🐈⬛🐈 As a housekeeper and commercial cleaner for the past six years, if you have plants that need to be watered or any other light house duties that need to be tended to while you're away, I'm happy to lend a hand!
Reviews
Jen did a fantastic job! She gave detailed summaries of her visits and put great effort in to befriend my cat (who’s not one for strangers). I felt confident that my little pal was taken care of when I was away. I’ll definitely be using her again!
Jen did a wonderful job taking care of my two cats while I was away. One of my cats is very skittish and because of Jen's calm & patience she was able to spoil him with love & treats. She is communicative and reliable. I highly recommend her.
Superb, no complaints from kitty
Jen was taking care of our cats and on Thanksgiving day our cat had a health event (it was autoimmune - it was in no way caused by anything or anyone) that required Jen to spend 6 hours on the holiday taking our cat to the emergency vet. She went so above and beyond, she took exceptional care of our cats and did so at great personal expense. We are forever grateful for the time and care she gave to our cats. She kept us informed, sent us photos and was a calm and compassionate presence to both our cats and to us during an incredibly stressful time. We could not reccomend her to be a cat sitter more.

Safety, trust & environment
As every cat is different, it's important to have a chance to chat with you on your cat's specific personality and what they need from a visitor. Some cats are eager for a new friend, while others are downright insulted that a stranger has disturbed them in their home. I'm an active person, and love a chance to play with cats in their personal habitats. At the same time, I can also simply be the human presence in the room for your kitty, if that is more their style. I'm happy to work with you and your feline family members to find the perfect amount of attention for these visits. Although we all love to travel, leaving our furry friends at home can be stressful and lead to anxious feelings. I am here to make the transition as painless as possible, keep your cats content while you're away, and help you enjoy your time away and return home to a peaceful space.
Information Jen C. would like to know about your pet
It's always nice to know the personalities of the cats before we set up regular visits. Having a Meet & Greet ahead of visits is a great way to discuss your cat's general nature, diet, energy level, medication needs, if they can have treats, and if they're up for play time. Together we can come up with a good game plan so you can enjoy your vacation and travels without worry!
A typical day
I'm an active person who loves to walk outside (but just as happy watching the world pass by from my spot at the window!) I've recently moved to the area, so I'm excited to branch out and travel to new spots around me!
