Hi! My name is Tara and I’m on this app just for cats! My whole world revolves around them! At home I have my girl Patty, who is truly my baby, so I understand the importance of having someone you trust to check in and give you peace of mind. Because of that, I promise to care for your cat(s) as if they were my own, and to give you the same kind of updates and peace of mind that I would want if I were away from my Patty. My goal is always for them to feel safe, comfortable and relaxed while you're away, so when you come back they're happy, calm, and full of positive energy. 💕 I’ve been cat sitting for over two years now, and in that time I’ve truly seen it all. I’ve cared for shy cats who need patience and gentle love, playful cats who want nonstop attention, seniors who appreciate extra care, picky eaters who turn their noses up at dinner, and even the occasional cat who tries to bully the others away from the food bowl. I’ve dealt with messy litter box situations, anxious cats, and everything in between I am used to handling it all with patience and care. What I’ve learned throughout my experience is that every cat is completely different. Getting to know their personality and figuring out what makes them feel safe and comfortable is honestly one of my favorite parts of sitting. Some cats want space at first, some want to play the second you walk in, and some just want someone to sit with them for a little while. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with cats and making sure they feel relaxed while you’re away. I try to create a calm, stress free environment where they still get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, but always at their pace. After doing this for a couple of years, I’ve gotten really good at reading their behavior and adjusting to what each cat needs.
