Safety, trust & environment

* I do require a physical meet and greet before the drop in visits begin. This is free of charge to you. I want your cat to have the chance to see me, and for you to know who is entering your home. Exceptions for genuine emergencies will certainly be considered.* I would enter your home with extreme caution just in case your kitty is curious about the outside world and attempts to go exploring if given the opportunity (aka, becomes an escape artist). I would always be mindful of any safety issues that your cat could encounter (such as removing potential choking hazards, cleaning up any hazardous materials I see that could harm your kitty, ect...). I will also ensure that I have your cat's veterinary information on hand, or any other emergency contact info I may need just in case you are unreachable while you're away.

Exceptions for genuine emergencies will certainly be considered. I would need to know what medical issues your cat may have, veterinary office to take your pet to, medications they take (if any), the least stressful way to administrator that medication to the cat, any allergies, any restrictions (places it shouldn't go in the home), what preferences for food the cat has, where it likes and does not like to be pet. Any additional information on your cat's personality and preferences will be greatly appreciated!

A typical day

I don't believe that I've met a cat that does not adore a laser pointer, so I will come equiped with one as well as some kitty treats (if they are allowed to have them). I will love nothing more than to cuddle with your cat, or just hang out with your kitty if cuddles with new people are not their thing.

Cat care experience

The cat distribution system blessed me with my first cat at just 6 years, and I have completely adored them ever since! Currently I am the proud cat mom to four of my own kitties, ages 7 to 12 years old. I have so much love for all animals, but I really understand cats and their behaviors the best. I love getting to know their very unique personalities, and I really haven't met a cat that I couldn't connect with. Originally I choose to pet sit cats exclusively because I wanted to make a little extra money doing something fun outside of my regular job. Over time, I realized just how much I was loving getting to build strong relationships with the cats in my care, as well as provide their pet parents with the peace of mind that they have someone in their home who they can trust with their cat's care. The most important things that I focus on during my visits is providing your cats with the best care possible, making sure they are in a safe environment and respecting your cat's boundaries so that they are comfortable with me being in their home. I have built some amazing relationships with the cats who are regularly in my care (as well as with their pet parents 😊), and I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your kitty as well! My services include everything that you should expect: giving fresh food, fresh water, giving medications, kitty updates, pictures and a clean litter box, but I also LOVE to entertain your kitty with play time, and provide them with lots of love and attention (that's the best part!). I absolutely love what I do and I appreciate you taking the time to learn about me and considering me to be your cat sitter!

Thank you Lenya for watching Smudge, once again. You made me feel at ease, knowing that you were familiar with my situation as well as taking care of Smudge in the past. I hope to be able to rely on you in the future for your excellent care of Smudge. Thanks again

Leyna took exceptional care of my cat, Smudge, while I was away. From our initial meet-and-greet, she was incredibly attentive asking thoughtful questions to understand Smudge’s routine and needs. Her reliability and professionalism gave me complete peace of mind. Smudge adored her visits. Leyna greeted her with genuine affection and provided comforting companionship during my absence. After each visit, she sent detailed updates that truly captured Smudge’s personality. Leyna went above and beyond in every aspect of her care. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, dependable sitter.

Leyna did a great job with the cats again this year. She was especially good with our newest addition who she met for the first time. Thank you.
