Pet care experience

305 Cat Lady 🐾

I have a special place in my heart for pets and love them all as my own 💗 I grew up with both a golden retriever in my home and we always had a cat. After I moved away to college I rescued a cat in NYC and had him for 15 years. We moved together to Miami. He passed away in February and I am not ready to move on but I look forward to loving your kitty until then. When I lived in NYC I also was a pet sitter & nanny for many years, and even drove the family's beloved bulldog to LA when they moved to the west coast! I have lots of experience with special diets, traveling with pets, medications and even specialized care like administering insulin. I love connecting with animals and offering attention, love and care like they are my own. Some say I am even a great kitten trainer..

Maryam was amazing. She left super detailed notes and was very communicative. My two cats get complicated refrigerated food and she was super on top of it!

Starsky my tuxedo cat was a perfect gentleman and loved spending time with Maryam. It was my first time ever leaving my cat with anyone and I would 100% recommend this sitter for your pets needs. Will absolutely rebook again.

Maryam was great. This was my first time using her to care for my cat, Chooch, who is diabetic and has special needs. She was very communicative and caring. I will be using her again!

Safety, trust & environment

We have lots of bright light in our spacious home and beautiful bay windows that our new friends can look out of. We also have some of bijans toys which he loved sharing. When I visit your home I love to spend time and do activities like puzzles or reading so your pet feels comfortable with my company and appreciates presence.

A typical day

I love to chat with your pets as soon as I arrive, offer encouragement or rewards for good behavior, check their water and food bowls for cleaning/refills and then play with toys. I always aim to offer some time inside so that we they can settle before my departure. I also love to brush my little friends if they enjoy a little tlc.
