Pet care experience

Kitties want Good Karma in lives!

I have cherished and cared for cats throughout my entire adult life, developing a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. My experience includes a special focus on senior cats, from administering medications and IVs to managing diabetic care—inspired by my own beloved Persian, Ms. Paige, whose photo graces my profile. Grooming can often be a challenge with our feline friends, but I am skilled in making the process as stress-free as possible, including nail trims and baths, understanding their typical reluctance. Building trust with cats takes time, and I'm proud to say that my current feline clients each have unique ways of expressing their affection and trust in my care. I look forward to meeting your cherished cats and ensuring they receive the highest level of care in your absence. Let's make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and secure!

Safety, trust & environment

For the comfort and safety of all pets, I currently do not offer pet care in my home, as I share it with a beloved senior Boxer, who is thoroughly enjoying her golden years as the princess of the house. I believe pets are happiest and most at ease in their own familiar environment, which is why I prefer to provide care in a client’s home. This approach minimizes stress for your furry family members, allowing them to remain in their routine even while you’re away. I’m always happy to discuss your pet’s specific needs to create a personalized care plan. My goal is to ensure everyone feels confident and comfortable with the arrangements, providing peace of mind for both you and your cherished pets.

Karma is always our go to kitty mom. Our girls are totally at ease with her and her communication with us keeps us feeling comfortable about being away.

Karma is a wonderful house and cat sitter. She is very conscientious. We never worry even when gone a week or more. Our cats are content, well entertained and probably don't miss us at all!

I have extensive experience working with a wide range of breeds and personalities, and I’m confident in my ability to adapt to each pet’s unique temperament. Since changes in routine can be stressful for pets, I strive to maintain as much normalcy as possible during my care. To ensure a seamless experience, it’s incredibly helpful to have detailed information in advance. Sharing details about your pet’s daily routine, preferences, medical needs, and any behavioral quirks allows me to provide the best possible care. Whenever possible, I also like to schedule a pre-visit before the engagement. This gives me the opportunity to meet your pets, help them feel comfortable with me, and go over any specific instructions together. The more information you can provide, the better I can tailor my care to meet your pet’s needs and give you peace of mind while you’re away!
