Availability
I'm currently splitting my time between pet-care and writing, so my day time schedule is pretty flexible. I'm also available for weekend visits. If you see a day/time blocked off on my schedule, feel free to contact me - there's a chance I can accommodate your request!

About Jj J.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Sadly, I am not able to care for your pets in my home because I have two cats, one of whom has very strong feelings about other animals in her space. Please schedule a meet and greet if you haven’t booked with me before. This allows everyone to feel safe and happy about the arrangements, and it gives me a chance to ask questions, so that I know how to best care for your pet(s). Please include ALL pets that you need me to care for on your profile, and in the booking request. This allows me to fully understand and properly plan for your needs, and it ensures that your pets are covered under the Rover guarantee.
Information Jj J. would like to know about your pet
For cat humans: please have written instructions on Rover or printed for me when I arrive so I can be sure to take care of your cat overlords properly. For dog humans: please let me know about any reactivity or fear-based behaviors that your dog has on walks (e.g. loud sounds, outdoor cats, people, other dogs, etc.). Thank you! If you're an existing client and you'd like to write a review, please use they/them pronouns or my name when you refer to me. Thanks!
A typical day
I start each visit with a greeting that involves lots of chin scratchies or a safety check if your kitty prefers to hide for visitors. Once I finish the necessary chores, I like to get silly with whatever toys are on hand (or I use my secret stash of crowd pleasing toys that I bring with me). If a kitty seems like they would prefer alone time or to sit quietly in my lap, that's what we'll do instead!

Pet care experience
PLEASE NOTE: I have not changed my visit pricing! The 11% booking fee you normally pay has been incorporated into the visit price for an "all inclusive" view of what each visit will cost. I have spent my entire life around animals, and I love meeting new fur friends! I am not currently providing dog services, but I would more than happy to visit your kitty friend(s). I have been a cat parent for over twenty-two years, and a professional cat friend for about three years. My goals are to meet your cat where it's at in terms of sociability and to provide reliable, safe kitty care while you're away. I have a knack for making friends with shy kitties, and I have been told by many a kitty friend that I have a comfortable lap. Pronouns: they/them

Reviews
Jj was an excellent cat sitter, as always! They spend real quality time with our kitties and send the best recaps/photos. We always feel really at easy when Jj is cat sitting, which is a true blessing!
Jj was amazing with my two, elderly cats! They went above and beyond and are extremely professional and responsible. I highly recommend them!
Couldn't ask for a better sitter! Left wonderful reports with all kinds of details and amazing pics. Great to work with; speaks cat more fluently than most. Will absolutely be our go-to sitter when available
Superb care, entertaining writeups…the peace of mind (and joy!) that JJ provides is invaluable. Always grateful!!
