About Kristy P.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
I will treat your home with the same care and respect I give my own. I understand the trust it takes to invite someone into your space, and I take that seriously. You can count on me to follow instructions closely, communicate clearly, and leave things just as I found them (if not better!). Whether I'm caring for your pets or simply making sure your home feels safe and secure while you're away, I'm here to give you peace of mind. I’m also happy to bring in mail, water plants, or do anything else that needs attention.
Information Kristy P. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your cat has any special dietary needs, medications, preferences, etc. I want to make sure they feel safe and cared for while you're away! Key Handling: Keys must be provided at the meet and greet, placed in a secure lockbox or accessible location at your home, or dropped off to me before the booking begins. *In buildings where elevator access requires a fob or front desk assistance, any wait time will be deducted from the scheduled visit.
A typical day
When I’m caring for cats, I always let them set the pace. Some love to play with toys or chase a string around the room, while others prefer quiet company or just being fed and left to nap in peace. I’m happy to provide enrichment, attention, or simply respect their space.

Trusted Cat Care from a 🐈⬛ Lady!
Cat care experience
Hi, I’m Kristy, a lifelong cat person and experienced kitten foster who offers cat-only care. I live in Alexandria with my tuxedo cat, Carmen, and shared over 10 wonderful years with my beloved black cat, Lucky. I’ve had cats my entire life and fostered dozens through the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria and the Humane Rescue Alliance. I’m comfortable with all types of feline personalities and most care needs, including administering medication and giving shots. Because I work from home with a flexible schedule, I can give your cat the time and attention they deserve. I’m reliable, professional, and committed to making your time away as stress-free as possible. My rates reflect not just the time I spend with your pet, but also the peace of mind of having an established professional caring for them in your home. Whether your cat is social or prefers solitude, I’ll meet them where they are, focusing on making them feel safe, respected, and relaxed. I pay close attention to routines and the little details that help your cat stay comfortable while you’re away! * Key Handling: Keys must be provided at the meet and greet, placed in a secure lockbox or accessible location at your home, or dropped off to me before the booking begins. *Parking: For apartment buildings or gated communities, I ask that a guaranteed parking option be available for the duration of the visit. If parking is limited, paid, or time-restricted, please mention this in your request so we can confirm availability and rates.
Reviews


Kristy is very dependable and communicative. Very satisfied with her care of my boys!


Kristy takes great care of our cats, including one who is rather needy. She is very communicative and responds quickly to texts. We enjoy having her as a sitter!

It was very difficult for me to leave Sunny for even a weekend. He's just turned 1 and I never have left him. Kristy put my fears to rest and took very great care of him, including providing me with regular updates on his well-being.


Kristy was very nice and super communicative!
