UES Cat Paradise - Cat Specialist!

Pet care experience

Hi! Thanks for reading my profile. I've been around or taking care of cats my whole life. From my first cat, Socks - a very cute black cat with (you guessed it) white paws - to my sister's Ragdoll, Tofu, who I look after when she's on vacation. Visit my insta, "UES.Catsitter" for a video intro of me and my place! I have a great sunny spot on the top floor of my building. My two large front windows look out onto 2nd Avenue, providing an ideal spot for your cat to sunbathe or to watch the cars go by. Currently, I wait tables part time and am a writer, so I spend a lot of time at home. I am a very communicative and fun pet sitter! I'll be sending you photos regularly and will always be available to answer any questions and provide updates. I'm also happy to provide any special services like picking up / dropping off your cat. I can also provide the litter box, litter (no charge), food bowls, and have scratch posts and cat toys. If your cat has any specific needs, I'm happy to help. Check out my cat blog where I discuss what to expect when I cat sit for you: UEScatsitter [dot] blogspot [dot] com (they don't allow url's on Rover.) I look forward to welcoming your furry companion!

Steven was very kind, responsive, and easy to communicate with. He sent updates and truly cared about Hudson’s comfort and well-being. Hudson is just a sensitive guy and we ended up bringing him home early, but I was so grateful for Steven’s flexibility and support. Would definitely recommend him to other pet parents.
