Sarah's Cat Boarding and Sitting
Pet care experience
I've been around animals my whole life and I started expanding on my passion for animals a little over a year ago by getting my dream job of working at an animal shelter. I work with both cats and dogs on a daily basis. Over the years I have fostered hundreds of neonatal kittens and sick cats for organizations like San Antonio Pets Alive and local shelters but now I'm interested in opening up my cat room to pets needing a comfy place to stay while they're families are out of town. I'm experienced with special medical needs such as administering medications of all kinds, feeding tube feedings, injections and fluids. Your babies will be treated like they are my own babies while they are in my care and I'll make sure they get plenty of extra cuddles and play time to keep them happy. I can provide any basic grooming such as bathing, cleaning ears, brushing and cutting out any mattes, and clipping nails. Your babies well being is my #1 priority and I would be honored to get to meet and spend time with them! You can expect plenty of photo updates of what they've been up to and how they're doing (unless you prefer not to receive of course). I also have experience caring for reptiles and invertebrates if you need care for more than just the furry babies.
Reviews
We really appreciated Sarah being able to squeeze our cats in last minute and for providing food during their stay which I forgot to bring. The photo updates throughout the visit are always wonderful and put my mind at ease. I'll be booking again next time I have to go out of town and every time after that.
Sarah did a fantastic job! She even have Bart his extra treats and meds , which we really appreciated! She clearly knows cats , we will definitely book her again!
Sarah is wonderful! We were so happy to have our relatively new rescue cat left in great hands. She was knowledgeable, responsive and amazing at giving frequent updates. Her setup for boarding is better than we could have asked for and our cat seemed unphased by our absence.
If you are anything like me, anytime I leave town and I’m unable to bring my furbaby, I get worried about him (probably just anxiety). Bingley is a very loving and vocal boy who craves a lot of attention. I was very happy that Sarah seemed very knowledgeable about his care needs and she was very understanding about my anxiety leaving him. Due to a recent house fire, Bingley and I lost a bunch of our belongings, but we are blessed to be healthy today. Sarah noticed I didn’t have a cat carrier for him and out of the kindness of her heart, she gave me one song with a couple blankets upon pick up. When I picked him up, Bingley was socializing with the other for babies in the home and he didn’t seem frazzled at all! It is rare to find someone that takes care of my Bingley like me, but Sarah was amazing! I will definitely be trusting Sarah to care for Bingley again then next I have to go out of town!

In my home I have a bedroom that has been converted into a private hotel room for cats. I will provide all of the supplies they will need during their stay and all I ask you to bring is their food unless you don't mind them eating what I have here (usually Authority or Purina One brands).

I currently work part time at a local animal shelter and I have alot of free time during the day. I work 6 hour days with a 2 hour lunch break in the middle so I have plenty of extra time even on work days to care for your babies.
