Affordable & Loving Petsitter!

Pet care experience

After not being allowed to have pets growing up, as soon as I graduated college, I decided to foster my special needs cat, Hudson. One week later, I decided I was keeping him! (even though I was going on an extended international trip in 3 months!) Spoiler alert: I ended up coming home from my trip with a 1 month old kitten, my dear Leóna from Nicaragua (she was the first kitten I'd ever seen in my life!). That got me started in the cat and animal rescue world where I went on to foster (thankfully no more foster failures after my first 2!), TNR, transport, and petsit cats and kittens of all ages (including feeding an outdoor cat colony for my friend while she was on vacation!). That semi-impulsive decision to get Hudson at 22 led me to become a total softie and animal lover - I even gave up eating meat and stopped killing bugs (except fleas - sorry fleas!). I am so thankful to those who watch my cat while I'm away so I can still pursue my love of travel and I want to be that for someone else and provide affordable rates to make pet ownership a little easier! Things to note: - My home is located about 15 minutes away from both JFK and LGA! - Although I have never had a dog, I absolutely love them and am open to learning how to best care for your dog and they are more than welcome in my home! - My cat is up to date on vaccinations - I clean the litter box 2-3 times a day - I have experience administering oral medication to cats I will send you many pictures and love your pet as my own! Know they are in good hands!

Autumn had such a great time. She got to experience NY like a VIP visitor. Got to see the Statue of Liberty and the Eclipse. That was so cute.

Mehnaz is one of the best sitters that have cared for Luna. She seemed so happy and full of energy while around Mehnaz! I cannot wait to be able to book with her again as I am not sure if I want to trust anyone else with Luna after seeing how comfortable Luna was around her. She also made last minute accommodations for me with no hesitation! Please do not hesitate to book your fur baby to be cared for by Mehnaz, I can guarantee you or your fur baby will not regret it.

Really communicative during the stay with lots of updates and photos. My dog didn’t want to leave! Highly recommend.

Let me know if there is anything important I should know about your pet, such as any behaviors that make them feel nervous or uncomfortable or they have any special needs. I am able to administer medication orally, but not able to do injections.

A typical day

I love playing with my pets and I'll make sure to do the same with yours! I believe it is so important for them to receive that type of stimulation, especially for cats since they don't get to go on walks.

I currently work from home so I have a lot of flexibility in meeting the needs of your pet! I feed my own cat about 4 small meals a day (she's a diva!) and clean her litter box 2-3 times a day. I am available to follow whatever schedule you have your pet on if they stay with me! Otherwise, I also might be able to drop-in on your pet at your home and stay for some extended time and do some work from there, if you'd like!
