A”furr”dable Cat Care❤️

Cat care experience

Aloha, My name is Patricia. I’m 53 years young! I’m a retired Art teacher that can provide care for your furr babies! I grew up around all sorts of animals including cats, dogs, chicken, rabbits, reptiles, turkeys, goats and fish throughout my childhood. Currently,I have an Emotional Support Chihuahua who has anxiety and is super skitish but shes super sweet! I also am a co-parent to a little black kitty cat that is 8 months old and feisty! Their names are Tumi and Umi. I will try my best to accommodate your pets needs to best of my abilities. I clean litter boxes and give oral medications when needed and I will give lots of attention to your baby! I know how important reliable, attentive and affordable pet care is, especially when you need to travel!! Please reach out and we can come up with a plan thats best for you and your baby(s). Currently, I can spend the nights and house sit/pet sit at your house, I can also provide drop in visits at your house. Please message me and we can discuss what you need! I do not work, Im retired, I might have to leave during the day for a few hours ( if hired to house/pet sit) for appointments, to pick up grandson, feed my pets at home or run errands. I will do my best to follow all directions, send pics daily and have great communication with you. It is important to note that I do have a Emotional Support Chihuahua thats quiet and is use to traveling with me; shes good with cats; she mostly just ignores them. if you want me to stay the night at your place; she will have to come with me ( I can crate her) unless some one from my family is home to stay with her. Please reach out, message me and we can make a plan thats good for you.

Patricia is so incredible!! She’s great about sending photos and keeping everything clean and neat! She also definitely can speak cat because my kitty is very shy but absolutely loved Patricia right off the bat! I’m so thankful to have had my pets in good hands while I was away, Patricia is the best!

Patricia was wonderful with my senior dog! She took excellent care of him and my other three cats. They can be a handful, but Patricia handled them like a pro. She sent me updates and lots of pictures. Definitely recommend her if you are in need of a sitter 😁

Information Patricia G. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know that I will NOT WATCH any dogs that are medium or large dogs . I will only watch small dogs and puppies that have never bitten a person, It is also important that they are up-to-date on their shots! I will watch ANY size cats though! ? I would like to know if your pet has any medical issues; what their diet is like. I’d like to know what their daily routine is, what they love and what to avoid so that I can be consistent with their routines. Id like to meet your pet before hand if possible, so that I don't cause more stress to them when they see a stranger at their house (stranger danger). If you are in a time crunch and your pet is ok with strangers; I can just show up the day(s) you need me ( just message me details). If you would like for me to walk your pet at the park during my dropping visits or housesitting; I’d like to know how they do around other animals and around people.

A typical day

Once they warm up to me; we can play with their toys, take little walks around your yard or the park or indoor fetch. We can chill and I can rub their belly, I can play Doggy or Kitty relaxing therapy music to them as well. I am starting to collect a few cat toys and dog toys as well that I can take with me. Im also learning about doggy and kitty massage. But of course, if your pet prefers space; I understand that. ( my pet has high anxiety) so I understand sometimes pets have different personalities and needs. If allowed, I can walk your doggies at the park or near the beach as well.

I stay home (Hilo) mostly and work on my digital drawings and online business. I do like to travel though, and I also watch my grandson about 2 hours daily. However, if your pet is friendly with children, I can babysit my 7 year old grandson at your house. I also like to go to the gym everyday, so I will be gone 1.5 hours everyday. Its super easy to fit care for your baby (s) into my schedule. I will keep my calendar updated.
