Cat Fanatic w/10 Years Experience
Pet care experience
Hi there! I've been a fulltime petcare provider for the past 10 years. I started this adventure after managing a pet store for a year. I enjoyed spending my days with cats and dogs in-store, so I thought this would be a fun, rewarding way to make a living. I grew up in rural Ohio so I've spent my entire life around a variety of animals. I currently have 2 cats named Oreo and Dasher. Both are rescues. I have worked for high profile clients in DC which required vetting from secret service, volunteered for a dog rescue, and hosted several dog and cat rescue groups while still working in retail. I regularly administer pills, insulin, use nebulizers and have even changed cat diapers. I'm super detail-oriented and like to leave a client's home as clean as I found it and am happy to bring in your mail/packages. I have a bit of a green thumb, so if you need your plants watered while you're away, I'm your guy.
Reviews
Fantastic as always!
Nathan is fantastic and takes care to make sure our cat is comfortable and having a great time. Our cat is so much more at ease after a visit from Nathan when we are out of town. Plus the pictures are always amazing!
Nathan took amazing care of our 6 month old kittens while we were away. He share detailed reports and adorable pictures twice a day, and really helped relieve the anxiety of having to be away from our kitties for a few days.
Nathan was friendly, consistent, communicative and overall excellent! Came home to a happy and well cared for kitty 😻

A typical day
I mostly care for cats these days, so the average day is filled with head rubs, tube treats and exposed bellies! I take care of a lot of senior cats, so lots of pills and insulin too.
