Sonya was absolutely amazing! She was so kind, communicative, and attentive from start to finish. She made sure Willow and Spooky stayed on a good schedule, checked on them regularly, and kept me updated every step of the way, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The photo updates were especially sweet—they really helped while I was missing my babies, and I loved getting to see how they were doing throughout their stay. It was clear they were receiving lots of care and attention. I 100% recommend booking with Sonya if you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for your pets like they’re her own. I would absolutely book with her again without hesitation. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Willow and Spooky! ❤️🐾

My cat is usually super shy and skittish around strangers, but Sonya has the magic touch! She was incredibly patient and went above and beyond to make sure she felt safe and comfortable. Receiving daily photos and updates made it so easy to relax during my trip. I will absolutely be booking with her again!

Sonya was very respectful and kind right off the bat. A small chat with her got me to learn about the two cats she owned herself which helped gain some trust on watching over my cat. My cat is usually very open to new people and was the same with this interaction. I had some simple rules in place which she respected and followed. I returned with my cat still very happy and well maintained. Sonya was wonderfully kind and professional. I would recommend her for any needs to look over your pet.

Sonya was absolutely amazing! She followed our instructions exactly how we want it and to make sure she track everything that needed to be done, including sending lots of pictures. She's always incredibly friendly and truly loves our cat ginger as if she were her own. When she housesits while we are on vacation, she is always deeply respectful of out property and never leaves a mess. We love her and ginger gets so happy every single time she comes by.

I won't let anyone else pet sit my two cats except for her. She has an enormous amount of experience with cats and my fur babies are picky with people and they are very comfortable around her. If I am out of town on business she drops in and texts me about how they are. Peace of mind is a scarce commodity these days.

Pets

A typical day

I am dedicated to providing high-quality, professional feline care that prioritizes both your fur baby/babies safety and emotional well-being. Follow your instructions exactly to the letter. I maintain your established feeding schedule and handle any necessary medical needs, including administering medications or treatments with precise care. I manage all daily upkeep, such as, multiple-times a day litter box cleanings or potty breaksto keep the environment pristine. To ensure a happy stay I balance this care with physical exercise (if your pet is able or in the mood to) and mental enrichment utilizing wand toys or their favorite toys for active play. For quieter companions, I offer gently grooming and comforting one-on-one socialization to reduce separation anxiety and create a stress-free and loving environment.
