Cats

Availability

I used to work in the film biz and since it's been quite slow, and I've been cat sitting on Rover for over one year basically full time. Outside of caring for my own cats, I care for roughly 4-5 cats per week full time on a rotating basis. Available 24/7.

Safety, trust & environment

As far as dogs go, I can really only accommodate drop in visits and walks since Ive got two cats at home (It's been YEARS since they've had a dog brother). But long walks are always on the table! For cats, it's basically the same. I've got experience with feeding time, play time and UGH litter time. As I've said felines are my speciality, and I'm good at finding the best ways to engage and take care of your kitties.

Information Sebastian I. would like to know about your pet

My experience with dogs is pretty limited so dogs who get along with most people are best. Younger dogs are more my speed, but I'm ok with seniors as well. Best they get on with other dogs as well. Cats, the more detailed your instructions, the better!

A typical day

In my time cat sitting I've come to learn that if you just supply me with an ample amount of treats/toys or both I will have no problem keeping your cat entertained and engaged.

Cat care experience

I've had cats since I was a child and am absolutely nuts about them. I specialize in taking care of any and all kinds of kitties. I've had over one year of experience with Rover and watching felines on a regular basis and it's been a pleasure. I can handle just about any situation. I fully understand it’s their world and we happen to co-habitat with them. There hasn’t been a cat I’ve met who I couldn’t get to warm up to me… eventually. Well, maybe one or two. But even then, I'll be "tolerated". Sometime you just need to let them do their thing and they come to you! Owner knows best, so I am at your kitty’s service 🙇‍♂️🐈🐈‍⬛😽 I see around 6-8 cats on a busy day generally, so I just ask for a few hours flexibility with the timing for visits as my schedule fills up often. However, I will try to stick to the agreed upon time slot as closely as I can. I'll always text with updates if requested or if things hit a snag during the day. I almost aways respond to new requests with in a few minutes, but occasionally it may take longer than 30-60 minutes. I WILL ANSWER YOUR REQUEST REGARDLESS. Thanks for looking at my sitter profile and reading my reviews. I look forward to getting a chance to meet both you, and your furry friend soon!

Sebastian watches my cat whenever I travel. Even if I need to book last minute he is very flexible and makes time. He sends tons of pics and would highly recommend him as a sitter!
