Furbaby Caretaker

Pet care experience

I'm a patient person with several years of experience with pet care. I specialize in cat sitting and am familiar with handling anxious animals. I've worked with cats and am very respectful of their space and needs. I've also have puppy and Boston Terrier experience so I understand how unevenly tempered or high-energy dogs, might behave. I'm a kind, supportive rock which helps me do what is needed for the furbaby. I am also TNR certified and am a community cat caretaker.

Sophia took the time to meet Carl beforehand, came on time, and was very responsible.

Sophia was the best cat sitter! Very thorough, asked great questions during the meet-and-greet, kept us updated daily with good details and wonderful photos! Wife and I had the peace of mind we needed while away for 2 weeks! Will definitely keep Sophia’s contact for future cat sitting!!

Safety, trust & environment

I balance out the owner's preferences (day or night, how many hours etc) and feel out what the animal needs emotionally (are they anxious, high energy or prefer to sit at a distance for company) so that everyone is a happy camper. By default, I tend to take 1-2 pictures per day/service - if you want more or less just let me know! For house-sitting cats, litter management is included! (unless specifically requested not to). For house-sitting dogs, walks are included!

Information Sophia C. would like to know about your pet

I'd love to know any stressors for the dog, what they like/dislike (places they prefer to visit on their walks), and any behavior patterns (jumping, barking). Also, if the dog has stomach issues, medication, or a special diet. For cats, the same. A care sheet for longer stays/drop-ins is always beneficial with details on food/litter/vet.

A typical day

I try to find less distracting areas to walk dogs (the outer rim of parks or quieter parts of the neighborhood). If the dog needs a little more stimulus I run with them a bit.
