About Samantha M.
Communication
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in your home taylored to the cats and owners needs! If they are super energetic and love playing and cuddles I will give them plenty of company but if they don’t like visitors and only need the chores done I can make it quick also!!
Information Samantha M. would like to know about your pet
I like to know instructions for food, treats, water, litterbox, medication info if needed, any keys or codes needed for entry, favorite toys and any hiding spots if they are shy! And any other special requests you would like me to do (mail/plants etc)
A typical day
I will modify this to fit cats…. Cats are very picky so I think they will tell me what activities they will or won’t do!!! Every cat usually has that one toy that always grabs their attention… so I will keep their mind off missing their mom or dad by playing with their favorite toy so they can nap the other 23 hours of the day!!

Experienced Cat Sitter
Pet care experience
I am a CPS school nurse by day and have 3 cats of my own! My husband won't let me get a fourth so I will take good care of yours instead! (** update: I now have 6 cats but still will take great care of yours!!) School nursing gives me plenty of free time to hang out with cats in the evening, weekends and holidays! I have cat sit for a company in Chicago for over a year doing drop in visits while owners are out of town! I am comfortable giving most cat medications (oral, ear, eye, and shots) and have experience with many cat health problems. I know concerning signs of illness in cats and will alert you if I see anything abnormal! I mastered feather wands, laser pointers, catnip sprinkling and will make sure your cat gets plenty of attention and play before the visit ends! I also will pick up mail/water plants or help with other house chores while you are gone! I hate leaving my cats so my goal is for owners to enjoy vacations and not worry about their cats while out of town! (sorry no dog visits :(!)
Reviews
She’s the absolute best!!!! Have a new cat in the house and she was so great in making sure everything was ok and comfortable for the new cat and current cat!
Sam was a fantastic cat sitter! She helped watched our cat over the Christmas holiday while we were out of town. She was super responsive and took great care of our cat, making sure that she got in all the play time she could. We sincerely appreciate Sam’s help and will definitely be booking again in the future!
The best in the biz! Samantha has helped us for years now and our cats love her!
Incredible sitter! Has checked in on my babies on two separate occasions and always does an excellent job. Will definitely rebook again!
