PhD student in Animal Sciences

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Lindsey and I am currently a PhD student at the U of I in Animal Sciences and I am primarily looking for opportunities to care for cats, but also love dogs! I have experience taking care of my own cat, Petri. He is 11 and I adopted him from the Champaign Humane Society when I moved here six years ago from Massachusetts. Because my family is out of state and I am stuck in the lab doing experiments, I am often in town and available during holidays to check up on your cat. I have a fairly flexible schedule that allows me to leave during business hours if needed to work around you and your cat's needs! I am willing to give your cat all or none of the attention he/she wants! I know that my cat is super cuddly and loves all of the scratches and cuddles, so I can definitely give your cat some love if needed. My cat was diagnosed with melanoma in his eye last summer, resulting in enucleation, so I have experience caring for a cat who has just undergone surgery and needs to be given medication.

Lindsey is amazing and a true professional! Unfortunately my 2 cats have since passed, but at one point we had 2 cats and 2 dogs. She was great with all 4 of them. When we were gone, I was confident that my animals were getting the love and care they were used to getting. It’s not easy juggling 4 animals alone but she had no issues. She is a true cat lover and will go to great lengths for her cat Petri. He’s one spoiled kitty and I have no doubt that she will love your animal as if it were her own. Lindsey is the responsible sitter that you’re looking for!
