Pet care experience
My Buddie will be a buddy to yours!
I make videos of cats that stay with me, so let me know if you're ok with this! If not, that's totally fine too :) Buddie is a very friendly cat who approaches newcomers and wants to play with them. If there seems to be tension between them, I have treats and toys to distract them, or can leave them in separate rooms. He does have FIV, but I have rarely seen him hostile to others. That being said, the cats can be separated to have no contact with each other if requested. I adopted Buddie over 3 years ago, and I love interacting with him and other cats! I also volunteer at a shelter by fostering cats that are stressed out and need a loving home. There's no such thing as a "bad cat" to me - they all love you back in their own way! I can provide periodic updates including photos and videos if requested, and can accommodate medication mixed in food (Buddie has arthritis so he also takes daily supplements). I have plenty of scratchers and toys around the house, and a lot of hiding spots if your cat is shy!

Safety, trust & environment
I'm very attentive to anything that looks or sounds out of the ordinary. If the cats want their free time I relax on my own in a quiet setting to be on the lookout for anything. If Buddie and my client's cat don't get along, I would physically separate them in separate rooms.
Ratings and reviews
Katie was absolutely amazing! Not only did she respond to my anxiety texts (which she really didn't have to do) almost immediately, but she bonded with my cat so well that I actually do believe that he misses her. I loved all the photos that she took during my trip, and she did an incredible job at making sure he was looked after. She also took special care to confirm with me he was comfortable during the heat that we had earlier in the month, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to book with Rover, and will definitely schedule with her again if I need to leave town for an extended period of time.
Katie took excellent care of our kitty! She arrived right on schedule each day and sent lots of photos during her visits. We highly recommend Katie!
Katie is the best! So thoughtful and sweet with my cat. Treats her like her own!
Katie was so responsive and patient with both me and my cats. Even my shy one hung close by after a few visits. The time she spends is high quality and generous. Thank you Katie!!
Katie is very proactive and thorough. Our cat warmed up to her pretty quickly and enjoyed her company. Would definitely be rebooking with her in the futures.
Katie was great! She was super responsive, attentive to Jasper's needs & very accommodating. Would 100% book her again!

Schedule
I go into office a couple times a week. My cat is always around me, so I have no problem taking breaks from work and take care of his needs.
