I invite you to experience the difference in feline care with my professional, evidence-based, and cleanliness-focused approach.

linah was the perfect cat sitter. My Hamish is only 8 months old and the first time I left him and a very sociable kitten. I booked Linah to come for an hour twice per day but she often stayed longer. I had lots of pictures of him. I can tell Linah is a true cat lover ❤️

Linah was an amazing cat sitter! Her love for cats is immediately evident and it really helped put us at ease. She responded very quickly to our messages, communicated well, and was able to thoroughly determine our cats needs. Our cats really enjoyed their visits from Linah and we were given cute photo updates of how they were getting on. I can't recommend Linah enough and won't hesitate to contact her if we ever need a sitter again!

Linah was an amazing cat-sitter! Our cats absolutely adored her, and it was such a relief knowing she was there giving them love and attention. She kept us updated with adorable photos and took great care of both our fur babies and our home. I'd totally recommend her to anyone looking for a caring pet sitter, and without a doubt, we'll be reaching out to her again whenever we need someone we can wholeheartedly trust with our cats!

I will do my best to follow the owner's instructions for feeding, provide fresh water daily, and maintain a clean litter box. Engage in playtime or cuddles based on the cat's preference. Grooming, if needed, helps keep their coat healthy. Keep owners updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.

Information Linah A. would like to know about your pet

Health and Medical Needs: Understanding any medical conditions, dietary restrictions, or medications the cat requires is vital. This ensures their well-being during the sitting period. Temperament and Behavior: Knowing if the cat is shy, outgoing, playful, or prefers solitude helps in tailoring the care and interaction style. Some cats might be sensitive to certain noises or environments. Favorite Activities and Toys: Information about what the cat enjoys—whether it's specific toys, games, treats, or activities—helps in keeping them happy and engaged. Feeding Schedule: Details about their feeding schedule, portion sizes, and dietary preferences are essential for maintaining their routine and ensuring they receive proper nutrition. Litter Box Habits: Understanding their litter box preferences and habits helps in maintaining cleanliness and comfort for the cat. Emergency Contacts and Vet Information: Having access to emergency contacts and vet details in case of unforeseen situations ensures prompt and appropriate action if needed.

A typical day

During a brief cat-sitting session, I focus on essential care and engaging activities. I start with feeding and ensuring fresh water, followed by a short play session using toys to keep them active and entertained. Afterward, I tend to litter box maintenance and spend quality time cuddling and bonding. If the cats enjoy grooming, I’ll brush or groom them briefly. Throughout, I keep an eye on their behavior and health, offering treats or puzzle toys for mental stimulation. Before leaving, I ensure a calm environment, any necessary medications. The aim is to balance care, play, and attention in a condensed timeframe, tailored to the cats' needs for a happy and comfortable visit.
