Highlights
Pet care experience
Cat Caretaker & Cat lover
I have tons of experience taking care of cats and kittens! Cats are an essential part of my life as I have three cats, occasionally foster and frequently volunteer at the cat shelter. I have experience socializing feral kittens and I truly understand cat body language and their boundaries. I also love playing with cats who are more outgoing and will ensure they are entertained! My own cats have special medical needs and I am experienced giving pills, ointments and eye drops.

Ratings and reviews
Milena was fantastic! Not only did she kindly step in to help at the last second when another sitter had to cancel for an emergency, but she was great with my cats. Even my shy cat was willing to come out for her, which says a lot! Additionally I received frequent updates and excellent communication. Highly recommend
Milena is a natural when it comes to taking care of cats! She’s excellent at reading cat body language and is very patient and gentle. My cat, Pebble, takes medication and she can be difficult to medicate. Milena is extremely patient with her and always makes sure she gets her meds. I highly recommend her!
Milena is fantastic! We have three cats, one of which is rather cagey and requires medication every day. Milena took the time to do that as well as play with them and brush them. On the second day, our cat refused to come out for her medication. Milena took extra time to coax her out, was open to trying other methods to make her more relaxed, and kept communication open. Milena went above and beyond, highly recommend!
Milena was wonderful with my two 11-month old cats. I’d never left them before so it was really important to have someone come to my house who knows cats, and she does. It’s also easy to see how your little cats react to someone when they first meet. Milena has a gentle nature and my little sisters were immediately drawn to her. I will definitely have her again.
