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 fur 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. Scheduling a Meet & Greet is a great opportunity to discuss your cat's general nature, routine, 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 game plan so you can enjoy your vacation and travels without worry!

A typical day

I am an active person who loves to walk outside (but just as happy watching the world pass by from my spot at the window with a cat on my lap!) For the younger (and young at heart) cat clients, I love getting down on the floor and playing with cats. It's so much fun to discover how they play, and gives great insight into their unique personalities!

Cat care experience

🐈‍⬛ ** I currently only accept cat 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. 🐈🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛🐈 I have previously worked as a housekeeper and commercial cleaner. If you have plants to be watered, mail to be picked up, or any other light house duties that need tending to while you're away, I'm happy to lend a hand!

Jen is fantastic! We had a somewhat last minute request for our little monsters and Jen came through. We also had a new addition of a kitten since last time she was here, and she fell right in love with her. She loves what she does and she loves our babies, you can tell. We have had some sitters that are adequate. They feed and water them. Scoop the box. Jen really takes the time to get to know them. Her updates are full of stories and pictures where their personalities shine through. She’s our first choice and our go to. ❤️ 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈

Jen did a fantastic job for us while we were away. As a pet owner with a diabetic cat taking a trip can be very stressful. Knowing Jen will show up timely, handle our cats meds, and give him the monitoring and attention he needs really reduces my anxiety. Thank you Jen!

Jen is positive, friendly, helpful, and makes sure our kitties don’t feel left alone when we’re gone. She’s much appreciated!

Jen was prompt, courteous, cheerful, and professional. After a short-notice visit she did for us last month, check took care of our 2 kitties for us when went out of town for 4 days, and our little guys did great with her.
