Catless Cat Lady
I’ve had cats and kittens since I was a little girl! I love that cats have quirks and preferences that have to be respected. I haven’t adopted a kitty since I lost my last girl but I’m happy to help keep your baby comfortable! Sorry I don’t have a picture of myself with a kitty.

Ratings and reviews
I never worry with Karissa watching our cats. She’s the best! Sends pics every day and they are always looking so happy! We are repeat customers 🙂
I adore Karissa, and I know my cats do, too. From the photos she sends, I can see that they are very comfortable and content. I appreciate that she offers the pick up/drop off service, her communication is outstanding, and she is always punctual. And, she returned them with a little gift of toys! Karissa is always my first choice when I need someone to board my cats. Many thanks!
I was worried about how Lucia would handle being boarded. I have only had her for 6 months and got her from the shelter. Karissa immediately put those fears to rest. She is very kind, and I immediately got a good feeling from her. Lucia looked happy in all the photos and pictures I received. I am very grateful for how well she was taken care of.
Karissa did a great job for my two girl kittens. She observed their different personalities and needs and I feel they adapted to their first time away from home very well. Karissa seems to be very knowledgable about cat behavior and needs and her space is very cat friendly and welcoming.
Karissa kept our kitties safe and happy! This is the first time we ever took our cats somewhere to stay and Karissa was the perfect person to do that with! They absolutely loved her and she kept us up to date with pictures every day. Great experience!
Karissa was fantastic with our three cats who had never been out of our house before! We so appreciated all the videos & pictures and knowing they were in good hands.

Schedule
I work full time but I am home in the evenings and on weekends. I have a security camera in the main part of the house so I would be able to check the comfort and safety of your fur baby while at work. Commute is less than 20 minutes so I would be able return home quickly if needed.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
- I have a three bedroom home with one roommate. - I only accept cats from one family at a time. - A pet boarding with me would be spoiled with attention if they want it and space when they need it! I will abide by dietary needs. - I work in an administrative role so I love to-do lists! You cannot over explain or provide too many details.
A typical day
I follow the cat's lead when it comes to activities. Some cats love stimulation and I will provide playtime to help them burn energy. Others may just want to perch by the window and nature watch and there's nothing wrong with that!
- CatsTakes only 1 client at a timeKarissa can host up to 3 pets per night
- Cat's being away from home for the first time may be a little nervous so packing their favorite toys and items that smell like home can help them adjust. Let me know about your cat's quirks and idiosyncrasies so I can best provide care for them.
