Senior dog and cat care

Pet care experience

Hello! I'm Jodi! I live in Sherman Oaks. I host one dog or cat at a time. (I can also host 2 sibling cats.) I would love to host your dog or adorable kitty while you're out of town. My focus is keeping your animal safe, healthy, and happy. Cats would have free rein throughout my large two bedroom, two bathroom apartment. Dogs have access to everything except one bedroom. They say that cats are connoisseurs of comfort. Rest easy knowing that I have a calm, peaceful environment with plenty of sunshine (and air conditioning) for your dog or cat to stretch out and relax in. For your visit, please bring: - Daily food placed in individual Ziploc bags measured out for each meal, and ample treats - Preferred kitty litter. Bring enough for their entire stay - Cat or dog carrier to be transported - Three favorite cat or dog toys - One item of your lightly soiled clothing as a parent’s scent typically relaxes a pet in a new environment - Any special medicines your pet is taking with detailed instructions, placed in individual Ziploc bags measured out for each day - Vaccination records from your veterinarian. Due to the nature of vaccinations, cats must be vaccinated at least 14 days prior to their stay. Vaccines for Feline panleukopenia virus (FPV), Feline herpesvirus (FHV), and Feline calicivirus (FCV), (FVRCP-C), Rabies, Leukemia (Felv). All cats that have had a Bordetella vaccine within the last 30 days unfortunately won't be able to stay with me. I work from home and am able to be with your pet all hours of the day. I generally wake up around 6 am and go to bed around 10 pm. For dogs, I prefer to chat with you to discuss what their normal walk schedule is so I can provide them with the same. In the mornings and evenings I provide fresh food and water and in the evenings I also clean the litter box. Throughout the day I’ll spend time with your cat and interact with them based on their temperament. If they’re a lap cat I will sit and pet them, if they’re active we can play with fun toys. For dogs, I usually provide as many walks as are needed. These are typically short 20 - 30 minute walks and we stay close to my home. (Note that I have a toddler so high energy dogs, or dogs with leash aggression, are not an ideal fit.) I'm so excited to meet you both and look forward to caring for your fur baby!

Jodi took great care of our little Molly! She sent us photos, videos, and updates just as a check in. We could tell Molly settled in and felt right at home quicker than we’ve ever seen!

Jodi was the best cat sitter we could have ever hoped for! She asked thoughtful questions about our cat ahead of time which helped ensure she could give him the care and attention he needed. We loved getting so many adorable photo updates that showed just how pampered he was with her. Her place was immaculate and she had her own cat toys and treats. All this let us relax and enjoy our holiday knowing our cat was in great hands. Use Jodi - you won't be disappointed.

Jodi was absolutely amazing!..This was my first time leaving my cat Minxy with a sitter..Jodi put me at ease from the start. She sends updates and pictures which I loved. Her energy and connection with animals is awesome. Any animal would be lucky to have Jodi as a sitter!!

Jodi is so sweet! She took care of Zoe really well. I was kinda nervous because Zoe is a skittish and nervous dog to meet new people, but thanks to Jodi, we had a great vacation without any concerns. She sent us photos and videos frequently and that made us feel relieved? We will definitely ask her to dog sit again in future! Highly recommended!

Information Jodi A. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know your pet's usual routine, personality/habits and your expectations for the stay. I would also like to know activities your pet enjoys and any specific methods to soothe him or her if they’re anxious while you’re away.

A typical day

My focus is spending quality time with your fur baby and giving them all of my attention. For dogs, I typically walk in a residential neighborhood nearby my house where there are many trees and flowers. For cats that are used to wearing a leash, they can enjoy my balcony (with supervision).
