Cats have always held a special place in my heart. I grew up with cats and have a 10-year-old cat of my own. I would happily have more cats at my house, but my husband is slightly allergic. I’ve been helping take care of our friends’ cats for years and recently decided to join Rover. From my experience, most cats prefer to be in their own environment to avoid the extra stress while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule and can typically stop by throughout the day. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy your time away knowing your kitty is happy, cared for, and getting plenty of love. I connect with cats naturally and have always been very attuned to their body language, personalities, and individual quirks. I understand that every cat is different - some want lots of affection and playtime, while others prefer their space and a quiet, reassuring presence. I’m happy to meet your cat where they are and let their personality guide the care I provide. Whether it’s fresh food and water, litter box maintenance, playtime, cuddles, or simply some company, I’ll care for your cat with the same patience, attention, and respect I give my own. I’m organized, reliable, responsive, and detail-oriented. Most importantly, as a cat owner myself who goes on overseas trips twice a year, I know how much peace of mind it brings to know your pet is in good hands. Additionally, while I’m caring for your cat(s), you're happy to: • Bring in mail/packages • Water plants • Alternate lights/blinds • Put trash/recycling out • Check that everything looks okay
