I love cats! 🐈

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Karen and I absolutely love Rover! Like so many things that got disrupted in 2020, I took a break from here but I’m now so excited to be back. 😊 I’d like to focus on just watching kitty cats 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 , since they have a special place in my heart. My husband and I currently own an adorable orange tabby cat named Latte 💙 I’m happy to drop in and visit with your kitty(s), play with them, brush them, and of course feed/water and clean the litter box, just let me know! Also let me know if you have any special requests, such as bringing in the mail, or any special treats to give your furry friend(s). I also promise to send lots of pictures! Whether you need cat sitting just once or on a regular schedule I’m happy to help. 🙂

Karen did such a great job! I needed a sitter on short notice and she was available for all services I needed. She did drop-in visits, walked my dogs, gave my dogs the medicine they needed, and scooped the cat litter and fed and watered all of my animals! She followed my schedule very well and was super friendly. You can tell she is an animal person. She sent me lots of pictures with each drop-in visit and walk she did of not only both of my dogs, but my cat as well. My dogs take a while to warm up to new people and she handled that very well as well! I will definitely use her for services in the future. ?

Karen is wonderful. Even my cats liked her and they never come out for anyone. She sent me so many amazing pictures and one I'm even going to frame.

Safety, trust & environment

I recognize that cats come with a wide range of personalities, and that some are more fearful/timid than others. I promise to give timid kitties the space they need until I’ve earned their trust. I’m also very good at reading cat body language. Just a few examples: whiskers forward and tail up usually means confident and happy kitty. Twitching tail can mean overstimulation and time to stop petting. 😊

Information Karen Z. would like to know about your pet

I’d love to know how old your cat is, if your kitty is a young kitten or a senior animal. Also I would love to know about their personality, and what their preference is when it comes to approaching them, playing with them or petting them.

A typical day

I would love to play with your kitty cat if you have any toys! I know it can be therapeutic for cats to get the physical activity as well as mental stimulation, especially while mommy/daddy are away!
