Safety, trust & environment

I take a gentle approach to meeting new cats and let them come to me and tell me with their body language if they want to be pet or not. I also have much experience coaxing kitties of all personalities into their carriers and giving them medication if needed.

Information Jenny N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat requires any medications or specific care or if they have any behavioral needs I should know about. I am happy to work with you to provide the best care possible to your cat.

A typical day

I will typically use a cat’s favorite toy(s) to play with them, give them lots of cuddles if that is what they’d like, feed them, refresh their water, sift their litter, and provide any other care they need.

Lifelong cat mom/shelter volunteer

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of cats from kittens to seniors since I was 5-years-old. After adopting my cat Cassie in September 2020, I began volunteering at the shelter where I adopted her. I soon was offered a position as an adoption counselor and matched over 50 cats with loving homes. I have copious experience feeding, playing with, medicating, and taking care of cats. As a pet-owner and shelter volunteer/adoption counselor, I have done much research into the best, research-based care for cats, and I have cared for cats of all personalities, from incredibly shy to climbing the walls. I am looking forward to meeting and taking care of your kitties!

Jenny is absolutely amazing! My cats had the best time hanging out with her while I was away and more importantly she was attentive to them, made sure my asthmatic cat got her inhaler, and looked after them as if they were her own! Thank you so much!

Was thankful to have found Jenny for our weekend away. Our sassy little cat was well taken care of and Jenny did all she could to get her out of her shell. Will absolutely look for her support again.
