😻 Specializing in Cats

Pet care experience

About Me: I have been a professional pet sitter for 25 years. I am a Certified Professional Pet Sitter (CPPS) and a Fear Free certified pet professional. I hold certifications in Pet First Aid and a specialized certificate in cat care. I'm bonded and insured, providing you with peace of mind. I am a devoted multi-pet mom who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I've volunteered and fostered for several rescues and have cared for countless animals, including; dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, sugar gliders, chinchillas, tortoises, squirrels, raccoons, chickens and pigs. I am especially passionate about working with senior pets and those with special needs. 🐈‍⬛ NOTE: While I love all animals, cats are my specialty and my primary focus at this time. I have several pets of my own and cat sitting works best with my schedule. If you have other pets in addition to cats, where only a drop in visit is required between 7 AM - 7 PM, then feel free to contact me to discuss. 🐈‍⬛ My Services Include: 🐱 Feeding and providing fresh water. 🐱 Meticulous litter box maintenance. 🐱 Engaging playtime and mental stimulation. 🐱 Petting, cuddling, and quality time. 🐱 Brushing and grooming, for those who don’t mind. 🐱 Medication administration (oral and injections). 🐱 Regular updates with photos and videos during every visit. Your pets are family, and I treat them as such. My mission is to offer the same level of love and care that you provide yourself. Throughout my journey, I've encountered various medical conditions and unique personalities, so you can trust that I'm well-equipped to handle any situation that may arise. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priority. Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requirements you might have. NOTE: My service area is North of Sunrise Blvd and South of Copans Road, all East of Dixie Hwy. This covers parts of East Ft. Lauderdale, Wilton Manors, East Oakland Park, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Sea Ranch Lakes, East Pompano Beach and Lighthouse Point. My typical drop-in visit times are 7 AM -7 PM.

Tammy is the BEST! This was the first time I entrusted anyone with my Babies! I was very nervous but Tammy made the experience so great! Meet and greet way beforehand … and pictures of my cats being loved and played with while I was away made this process comfortable for me. THANK YOU TAMMY!!!

Tammy was great taking care of my cats. This was my first time using her as a cat sitter and I’m glad I did! She went above what I expected and the photos of my cats were so greets to see each visit. Highly recommend her. Thanks Tammy!

Information Tammy R. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know your cat's likes and dislikes, personality traits, special needs, allergies, medications, preferred vet, emergency contacts. I also need to know where you keep any cat products, carriers, clean-up supplies, etc.

A typical day

During a typical cat visit, I start by ensuring that your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, that any meds are administered and that all basic needs are met. The remainder of the visit is one in one time, entertainment, affection, and possible grooming, if the cat approves. I like to keep the cats engaged with interactive play and various forms of stimulation. Some favorite activities are playing with crinkle and catnip toys, wands, tech toys, laser lights, cat games and cat tv, and more.
