I have rescued dogs off the street, reunited strays with their owners, and for almost a decade I've been a caretaker to a colony of feral cats. My cat who lives with me was mistaken for a feral by another caretaker until I noticed walking by one day what a sweetie she was and took her in. I love animals with all my heart. I care about your pet's individual needs. I will go the extra mile to get to know them and make sure each drop-in visit is satisfying and stimulating. When we do a meet-and-greet, I'll take notes to make sure I understand exactly what you're looking for in a pet sitter. After each visit, you'll receive a detailed visit summary with lots of pictures. I stay longer than the minimum 30 minutes, and I've even been known to give new toys as gifts. If your cat tends to hide, I will be as gentle as possible, and I've had success luring habitually scaredy cats out to make friends. I'll take care of miscellaneous tasks as needed, like bringing in packages, watering plants, or dealing with unexpected apartment issues that arise (water leaks, etc.). In short, I want you to have complete peace of mind when you're away, and to know that I care deeply about your pet's well-being.
