Safety, trust & environment

I can come to your home to provide care for your kitty in their own environment, including feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance and, last but not least, play and cuddle time! I also welcome the opportunity to board your cat in my home.

Information Karin J. would like to know about your pet

Thorough details about their feeding and the litter box system used. Also any medical problems and required medications. I would also like to know their favorite toys, games, and treats. For shy cats, it is also important to know their regular hiding places, and if the cat prefers not to be touched or picked up - anything that might cause them stress.

A typical day

I will add enrichment to your cat’s experience through playing and affection. We can play with their favorite toys or just hang out on the sofa if they desire. I like to take the kitty’s leads when it come to activities.

Pet care experience

I grew up with cats and have always had an affinity for them. My specialized services began when I started fostering cats for an animal rescue group in New York City, ages from bottle babies to seniors, most of them being sick or injured. In 2015 I started a successful cat-sitting business in NYC and earned the designation of Certified Professional Pet Sitter through Pet Sitters International. I am able to administer all types of medications, including oral pills and liquids, eye and ear medicines, inhalers, insulin injections, and subcutaneous fluids. I recently moved to Milwaukee and would love the chance to meet your kitties and put my expertise to work!

Karin brought us so much peace of mind while we were gone! She clearly loves cats so much, and she went above and beyond to make sure our kitties felt loved. We would recommend Karin to anyone for her stellar cat care!

Karin is the absolute best! Our kitty has a harder time adjusting to new people while we’re away. Karin took great care and time in making sure he developed familiarity - and they were cozied up in no time! Karin went above and beyond in caring for our cat and our home, sent thorough updates with every visit, and gave us great comfort that we were in good hands ♥️

Karin has been taking care of my cats for about 8 years. Her love of animals, attentiveness to their needs and my needs have been outstanding. I appreciate getting a text with pictures when she visits. Her questions prior to working with our family were thoughtful and important. Where do you keep your carrier in case there is an emergency vet visit? What is the vet's name? What if your vet isn't available? etc. Karin is an outstanding pet sitter. I recommend her without any hesitation.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
