Pet care experience

Specializes in cats!

Hi! My name is Marlee and I specialize in caring for cats. I have been a cat owner for over 20 years and have experience with cats of all ages, from 3/4 months to 17 years old. I also have some newer experience with dog sitting including feeding, playing, and potty breaks when necessary. In the past I have also watched parakeets, watered plants, took in the mail, and cleaned, just general house sitting things you may need.

Marlee is fantastic. I have 3 cats, one who requires extra attention. I was away for 4 days. She went above and beyond. Nothing fazed her. She clearly loves cats, and my cats loved her! I will be booking Marlee again.

Marlee was great. Always showed up within the window of time we needed 2x a day and took good care of our two kitties. Will book again!

I came home to a bathroom full of cat poo. The litter box, the space behind the toilet, the bathtub, even the floor in front of the sink had nasty brown poo spots. I spent my first hours home cleaning up with paper towels and elbow grease while Nasdaq (my kitty, not the stock exchange) screamed for attention and cuddles. I messaged Marlee about it, and she said she'd cleaned the bathroom litter box several times and maybe Nasdaq's digestion was just off. But I don't think that adds up. There was a span of about 18 hours between her last visit and when I got home. I've left this kind of gap before when on vacation, and I've never come back to this much poo. There had to have been a week's worth of poo in that bathroom. I also noticed that while she listed "pee and poo breaks" on the rover card for the 24th, she didn't list them for the 22nd, 26th and 28th. Maybe she just forgot to add it for some of them, but I'm not sure. Either way, if she was having trouble cleaning up after Nazzie, she should have called or texted me about it right then, or maybe left a message about it on the Rover cards. Some communication needed to happen at some point before I came back, but it just didn't. I've had this sitter I think twice before. I was satisfied with her care on previous visits, but she really dropped the ball this time. Worse, her specious communication about the matter has damaged her credibility in my eyes. I think she may have been dishonest about how often she scooped the box, and either way she should have told me if something was the matter. I think I may have to find another sitter, because I'm thoroughly disappointed by this outcome.

My main love is cats. I adopted my cat Toby (the orange cat with the bright eyes in my photos) in 2025. He is almost 2 years old! My family currently has two almost 8 year old sweeties that I’ve helped raise since they were kittens. Playing with them is the best and I love to help them get their hunting energy out to keep them calm and relaxed for you! Cats are my main focus, but dogs, birds, and fish are all a possibility for me! I would love to care for your pets!

Let me know if your pet needs any special attention or special activities. I love to work with you and your pet to make sure they have a good time while you’re away and hopefully give you one less thing to worry about.
