Cats

I started doing cat sitting a few years ago as part of my freelance work, and part-time job. It's been wonderful getting to know so many great cat parents! These days I'm keeping busier than ever - between my job (which varies between 30-40 hours weekly), my art projects, and all the wonderful cats I get to care for. When I visit your cats, I always commit to staying at least a full hour to make sure they get proper attention and care - whether that means playtime, pets, or just giving a shy kitty under the bed a chance to come out. My pricing is simple too - it's per visit, not by time or number of cats, so you'll always know exactly what to expect. I do need to ask for at least two weeks' notice for new bookings when possible. Since my work schedule changes weekly and I need to arrange time off in advance, this helps me make sure I can give your cats the attention they deserve. That said, I'm always happy to chat about scheduling and see if we can make something work!

Cat Specialist

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Sharleen and I would love to get to know your cat! I take full responsibility and care for your loved one while in my care and make sure they are as comfortable as can be. Cats are mysterious creatures with a whole lot of personalities! Let me know if your cat tends to be timid or playful. Do they like to cuddle and accept belly rubs? Will they dislike another cat's scent? Does your cat need a lot of attention or would prefer to be left alone? The more I know about your cat, the better I can look after it and ensure they enjoy my visit. Some extra services I can provide: -Attending to the litter box -Bath -Grooming/Brushing -Nail Trimming -Brushing teeth -Topical Care/Medication Not all cats enjoy these "treatments", so depending on your cat's personality, I may or may not be able to perform these with your pet. There is no extra charge for these services, I just ask you to let me know if you would like me to do any of them.

Sharleen watched (house sit) our two kitties recently and did a great job. Communication was excellent. She sent lots of pictures and alerted us to anything that she thought we should know. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again to pet sit.
