My cat and lizard recieve daily, quality care, and I will be sure to provide the same for your pet. I do not currently do at-home boarding but I am happy come to you for drop-ins, overnight stays, and walks!
Information Linda R. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special requests for your pet's care and I will be happy to accomodate! As I have owned lizards for going on 8 years, I am comfortable caring for reptiles during a drop-in if needed as well!
A typical day
One cat drop-in session would involve replacing your kitty's food and water, cleaning all food and water dishes, scooping the kitty litter, and petting/playing with your kitty for a minimum of 30 minutes. I like to keep a plush ball, stick feather and cork toy on hand in case but will use your cats own toys unless specified. A dog drop-in would involve replacing food and water, cleaning food and water bowls, letting them out/picking up after them and petting/playing with them for a minimum of 30 minutes!

Cat care experience
Hello! My name is Linda and I am a recent college grad and lover of animals, especially cats! Since childhood I have looked after multiple family kitties, and have cat-sat for friends and family countless times since my teens. Additionally, for over five years I've had the pleasure of caring for my rescue kitty 'Baby' and lizard 'Ori' too. Being raised with cats, I believe I am well equipped to understand your pet's body-language and needs, and to provide them with the care that they deserve. I am passionate about animals, punctual, and feel confident that you will be satisfied with my pet care!
Reviews

Linda went above and beyond by spending extra quality time with our kitty Oliver and paid such close attention to every detail. She really made an effort to help him feel safe and comfortable, and when she could tell he was feeling anxious, she tried different techniques to help him relax and feel more at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away for 2 weeks. We’re so grateful for the care and attention she gave him and would absolutely recommend her! Thank you so much Linda, for looking after our boy!


We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter! She stayed at our apartment over the Fourth of July weekend and took amazing care of both our home and our cats. She was incredibly communicative throughout her stay, sending regular updates and making us feel completely at ease while we were away. We came home to a spotless apartment and, most importantly, two very happy, relaxed cats who clearly adored her. It’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them like her own. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our furry family and our home!

This was my first time having to leave my cat with anyone other than family. Linda was so attentive, always checking up on Hera on time, ensuring she had enough food, water, and pets and playtime! She checked in to make sure that with the summer heat she could keep the apartment cool, and when Hera broke a toy she fixed it up for her! Linda was absolutely amazing, and I hope to hire her again next time I have to go out of town!
I have noticed that Linda is quite fond of pets and likes to play with and cuddle her own pets as well as those of her friends. She has owned cats and lizards in the past and currently is responsible for the care, maintenance and feeding of her own cat “Baby” and Uromastyx lizard “Ori”. I have observed Linda pet-sit a cat several times at Linda’s own home and noticed her following the owner’s specific instructions carefully, while giving the cat extra playtime and general lap time so the cat could feel more comfortable in her new environment. This was important especially for the most recent episode of three weeks. The cat was provided with: * Her own food, given at the accustomed time of day * Fresh water, changed daily * Litter scooped and replenished twice daily * Plenty of exercise in a large bedroom and across the hall into the master bedroom suite * Isolation from other pets * Access to a large sunny window * Nap time on Linda’s lap Linda also dotes on both her Russian Blue cat and her large African Uromastyx lizard. Both pets are obviously happy and healthy.
