Reliable, work-from-home cat lover
Pet care experience
I've been a cat parent myself to just one cat, Flicker, who passed away recently. But I've had friends with cats for all of my adult life and have a strong connection to them and really know how to care for them. I'll make sure your cat is safe and loved. I have experience taking care of sick cats, so If your cat requires medication of any sort I am comfortable administering it. I've also cared for kittens as young as 10 weeks old, so I'm very happy to look after young ones.
Reviews
As his sister, I can attest that Richard extremely responsible and has always had a deep connection and love for animals. I have no reservations leaving him in charge of my highly energetic puppy as I know he'll do whatever it takes to care for him and I know he'll do the same for your pet.
Rich has been a friend of mine for many years. Over these years I've trusted him with pet-sitting, house sitting, baby sitting, chair sitting, etc. and he has proven himself exemplary at all of them. Recommending Rich for anything is very easy; because even putting our friendship aside, he excels at everything. Recommending that Rich is worthy of trust to a stranger? To care for your pet and enter your home? Yes, this is extremely easy to do as well. It isn't because he's trustworthy to me that I can do this, it's because it's somewhat impossible to picture Rich being untrustworthy to anyone. I could go on at great length, but the bottom line is that if you hire Rich to care for your pet you'll see straight away what an excellent decision it was.
Richard has been a good friend for over 10 years. He’s cared deeply for his cats as well as mine. Anyone else cats are in good hands and I am confident they will get the care and attention they need.

My house is a safe place for your cat. There are no toxic plants that they can chew on, no chemicals that they can get in to, and I'll make sure that they never get outside without being in a crate or harness. Your cat will have a safe, comfortable place in the house that is just for them where they can be by themselves if they want to. Their litter box will be in an easily accessible spot, water will always be available for them, and there will be lots of access to windows for them to entertain themselves at any time. I live with my partner who also loves cats and will help love and take care of your cat. We don't have any other pets, and we won't host any other pets while yours is here.

Availability
I work full-time from home, Monday-Friday 9-5, and so does my partner, so we will always have enough time to spend with your cat. Our schedules are flexible, though, so we can always adjust our working hours if needs be due to an emergency or any other reason. Your cat won't get lonely and there will be plenty of time for play, and you will always get plenty of pictures.
