In my daily routine, pet care is seamlessly integrated through a few key activities. Mornings begin with feeding my cat and checking its litter box, followed by a brief play session or some affectionate interaction. During work and school hours, I ensure my cat has stimulating toys and a comfortable space, keeping the time alone to a maximum of four hours. Evenings are dedicated to quality time with my cat, including play, grooming, or simply relaxing together. Before bed, I make sure my cat's needs are met for the night, ensuring a consistent and caring routine.

Safety, trust & environment

I take great care in ensuring my own cat is well-cared for by providing regular meals, fresh water, and a clean litter box, along with daily play and affection to keep it happy and engaged. When caring for friends' cats and dogs, I maintain a similar level of attentiveness by following their specific care instructions, such as feeding schedules and exercise needs. I make sure their environment is safe and comfortable, offering plenty of toys and enrichment activities to keep them occupied. I aim to make them feel at ease and well-loved, ensuring they have everything they need while their owners are away.

Information Lena H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet requires any special assistance or care, additionally anything they may especially like or dislike, to ensure that your pet is comfortable

A typical day

When watching and walking dogs, there are plenty of fun activities to keep them engaged. I would play fetch or tug-of-war, which are great for burning energy. Try agility training with simple obstacles, or toss a frisbee for them to chase.

Experienced Care for Purr & Paws

Pet care experience

What sets me apart as a pet caregiver is my deep, personal connection with animals. As a cat owner, I understand the unique needs and personalities of felines, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. My experience extends to small dogs as well, where my boundless energy and affection create a joyful environment for them. I don’t just care for pets—I bond with them, offering the same love and attention I give my own cat. This passion and understanding are at the heart of my approach, making me a trusted and dedicated caregiver for your furry family members.

Lena was great! She has visited us multiple times and has been wonderful with both of our cats. Tig can be shy and selective and he adores her. She also never skips Pumpkin’s little hallway strolls, which means a lot to us. We leave feeling at ease knowing they are in their hands. Thank you!

Lena was absolutely incredible. She took such good care of my babies. She watched my cats for a little over two weeks and sent us so many pics and updates. My youngest cat was a little shy at first, but she won him over eventually with persistence and Churus while keeping me updated the entire time. My cats were so well cared for and loved while they were with her and I didn’t have to worry about them at all. We are so grateful for Lena and would 1000% book with her again.

Lena was a fantastic sitter! She was super responsive and put my mind and ease while keeping my foster dog company for a few hours.
