Safety, trust & environment

As a drop in sitter, it's my job to keep your cat(s) happy, fed, and stay as close to their normal routine as I possibly can. Cats can get stressed with changes, so I want your time away to be as stress free for them as it is sure to be for you!

Information Marije M. would like to know about your pet

To help me take the best care of your cat(s), the more I know the better! Like what do they like/dislike? Do they have favorite toys or napping spots? Can I give them treats? Is there any medication or special requirements for them? You will always be my first point of contact, but do you have a friend or relative's name and number, along with your veterinarian's name and number, I can contact if I can't reach you in an emergency?

A typical day

Playing with kitties is not only fun for them, but for me too! If your cat(s) want to play and have any favorite toys, I am ready and willing for playtime as long as they are. I also understand not all cats like that, so don't worry. If you have a shy kitty like mine, I'll be sure to give them all the space they need!

Kitty Care When You're Not There 🐈

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Marije (pronounced Mariah), while I'm still growing on Rover, I am not new to caring for cats. I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid. Growing up, taking care of the animals was always part of my regular chores, from feeding the goats and chickens in the mornings, to the night time feeding of our dogs and cats. Today it's no longer a chore, but something I absolutely love. I currently have two cats of my own, my sweet boy who is 6 years old and my little baby girl who is 4 years old. And yes, they are completely and utterly spoiled! I know how stressed I am whenever I have to leave my cats to go on a trip or vacation, so I just want to reassure you that I will be taking care of your cats just like I do my own. That includes lots of love, playtime, and all the cuddles - if they want that. My own little guy is rather shy around strangers, so I know to give them space if that's what they are needing/wanting. Since moving out on my own, I have always had my own cats and have experienced all the highs and lows that are involved. From raising a blind kitten to daily injections for heart disease and diabetes to oral medications for cancer and kidneys. Special dietary needs aren't a problem either, I studied culinary arts, so I can handle any food type of situation. I am determined to keep your cat(s) on their regular daily schedule, so they can stay happy and healthy while you enjoy your vacation! I will make sure their water dish is always full of fresh, clean water. Their food dish has their favorite meal in it and their litter box is cleaned and scooped on a daily basis!

I could not be more thankful with Marije for the care of our baby Oliver while we were away. She provided us with daily updates and photos and reached out when needed. I also appreciated that She came to meet us and Oliver prior to our vacation to gather all the info she needed to care for Oliver and that gave us complete peace of mind. I highly recommend Marije, she was reliable, professional and attentive but most of all, she treated Oliver like her own and made sure he was happy & comfortable. I will definitely book her again and I would recommend to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you again for the amazing care!

Marije did a wonderful job taking care of Diamond. She gave us peace of mind while we were away on vacation that Diamond was well cared for. Thank you Marije for doing such a great job!
