Availability
I am a software developer who works from home, and I have a relatively flexible schedule, allowing me time to spend with kitties who need a little TLC while their humans are away. I'm usually up around 6am to go to the gym, but always happy to swap that for a cat visit instead. :) My evenings are flexible, but I do go to bed pretty early, so ideally, visits are completed by 8pm.

About Rhonda H.
Communication
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I will treat your home with the utmost care and respect. I have also had cat sitters take care of my own cats, so I understand the level of trust that comes with this role. If you want me to turn on/off lights, collect mail, water plants, I can also do that. Litter and food areas will be cleaned; I want to make sure you can come home and simply focus on loving on your cat, and of course apologizing profusely for having the audacity to leave them! ;-)
Information Rhonda H. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any hiding spaces your cat may go to, and if there are any medical or health concerns that I should be aware of.
A typical day
In addition to taking care of food and litter, I will make sure your cat gets plenty of pets and play time while I am there. I do my best to read the room and respond accordingly. Be it play, cuddles or space, I'm happy to oblige.

Your Neighborhood Cat Sitter
Cat care experience
I've been a cat person my whole life — I grew up with cats, had two of my own, and now volunteer with a local rescue doing fostering and transport. That means I'm comfortable with shy cats, multi-cat households, basic medical needs and special dietary needs. Over the past couple of years, I've become the go-to cat sitter in my neighborhood, and I'd love to offer that same care to more neighbors. Whether it's feeding, litter duty, playtime, or just keeping your cat company, I'll treat your cat like my own while you're away.
Reviews
Rhonda has been the most perfect cat owner I have ever known. She pays attention to every detail and always made sure her kitty got the best food, water dispenser, soft blankies, steps up to the bed, anything you can think of. I learned from her and was a much better pet parent because of her. Rhonda cared for my kitty when I was out of town and I knew she was in the best hands. I have known her for years and couldn't imagine recommending anyone better!
Rhonda has been an incredible cat sitter, and I can't recommend her highly enough. She is consistently reliable, punctual, and dependable, which gives us complete peace of mind whenever we're away. Beyond that, she is so caring and attentive with our cat, taking the time to make sure he feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for. It's clear that she genuinely enjoys spending time with animals, and it shows in the thoughtful care she provides. We've had nothing but amazing experiences hiring Rhonda, and we highly recommend her for pet sitting!
Rhonda is a true cat lover/experienced cat owner who your kitties will adore! She's also dependable, trustworthy and responsive, giving us complete peace of mind every time we travel. Over the past year, Rhonda has cared for our cat, Whiskey, whenever we've gone out of town, providing daily drop-in visits for trips ranging from 2 to 10 nights. We highly recommend Rhonda for your catsitting needs!
