Pet care experience

Happy Cats, Happy Homes —

I’ve spent over 20 years caring for cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs, including fostering rescue cats and helping shy or anxious cats feel safe and comfortable in new environments. I understand that every cat has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to build trust at their pace. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give to both the cats and the home. I’m attentive to behavior changes, experienced with multi-cat households, and comfortable handling feeding routines, medications, litter box maintenance, and enrichment play. As someone who has fostered cats, I’m especially patient with nervous, senior, or special-needs cats and know how important consistency and calm energy can be. I also believe pet parents deserve peace of mind while they’re away, so I provide reliable communication, thoughtful updates, and photos so you always know your cat is safe, comfortable, and cared for.

Schedule

My weekly routine is incredibly flexible, which allows me to prioritize a pet's specific needs rather than forcing them into a rigid box. I can adjust my daily schedule to match their usual home routine. Pet care isn't just a slot in my day; I build my daily tasks around ensuring they are fed, exercised, and loved.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, safety starts with a secure, pet-proofed environment. Before any pet arrives, I ensure all trash cans are secured, hazards are out of reach,I strictly follow the owner's instructions regarding sleeping arrangements, ensuring they have a dedicated, comfortable space to rest and feel safe.

A typical day

When it comes to cats, I tailor my activities entirely to their unique personality and energy levels. For active or playful cats, I love setting up interactive games that tap into their natural hunting instincts. This includes using wand toys, laser pointers, and rolling balls to get them moving. I also like hiding treats around the house or using puzzle feeders to give them a fun mental challenge. For more reserved or senior cats, 'fun' might just mean a long, relaxing brushing session, gentle chin scratches, or quiet companionship. If a cat is shy, I respect their space and will sit nearby reading a book or working, letting them approach me on their own terms. Above all, I make sure every cat gets plenty of mental enrichment, and dedicated affection so they never feel lonely."
