Feline-focused pet care
Pet care experience
I’m a dedicated cat mom and cat foster. I have four cats of my own: Lily, Bluebell, Whopper, and Tinkie Winkie. Lily came to me very scared and angry after a rough stay in a shelter. She was shy and would act aggressively out of fear. Now, though, after nearly a year with me, she is a happy, calm kitty who will demand pets from any and all visitors. Bluebell is a sweet and happy girl, and Whopper and Tinkie are both foster fails with behavioral quirks (Whop is aggressive and Tinkie is very shy and hides in the ceiling whenever he hears a stranger). My kitties have given me excellent experience in caring for all kinds of cats: shy and social, sweet and angry, low and high energy. I’m now a cat foster as well, and I specialize in cats with behavioral difficulties (shy, scared, or aggressive cats). No matter what your cat’s personality is, I will be able to care for them well and make sure they feel loved.
Reviews
Melanie was great! My main goal with a sitter was to have a liquid medication given to my cat. Everyone knows how much fun that can be. Not only did Melanie pull that off with flying colors she also gave me a tip to make it easier!
Took great care of my cats!
Melanie was great! Very dependable, provided nice updates and photos frequently and we returned to happy, relaxed boys.
Melanie N. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
