Safety, trust & environment

PET SAFETY: Using caution when entering the home is important to ensure cat(s) don't escape. We also ensure bedroom doors don't accidentally close that might block the cats' access to food or litter box. Happy to bring in mail and packages, too. HOME SECURITY: Packages, newspapers, and door flyers will be brought inside if we see them on your porch when we arrive. We always verify the door is securely locked after we exit.

Information Tina B. would like to know about your pet

1) Is your cat a door-dasher? 2) While we are fine with adding liquid or powder medicine to your cat's food, we are not comfortable administering pills or needle injections to your pets.

A typical day

If your cat is shy, we find that shaking your cat's food or treat bag will pull him out of hiding. Teaser toys are always a hit.

Pet care experience

My teens are available for cat and dog visits this summer. DOGS: We are experienced dog owners and understand the need for dogs to get their daily sniffs and walks. Previous dogs we've owned before they crossed the rainbow bridge: Bernese Mnt Dog and Malamute CATS: We have been a foster parents for over 5 years and have cared for more than 60 foster cats and kittens. We understand cat behavior, like when they're ready for pets and attention, and when they want to be left alone. Like humans, they need fresh water every day and want a clean bathroom (litter box) just like us. We have been volunteering with a variety of rescue groups for several years including Seattle Animal Shelter, Seattle Persian and Himalayan Rescue Group, The Whole Cat and Kaboodle, and many more. Parents have been Magnolia home owners for over 26 years; UDUB alum and a technology professional who works remotely, usually with my own cat on my lap. I'm sure you've heard the Rover horror stories of sitters backing out last minute with no recourse. You can rest assured a guaranteed booking with us.

Tina and fam were able to cat sit for me on SUCH short notice and as always, took care of my boys with great care. I knew they would be in good hands. :)

Tina was a fantastic cat sitter! She was very communicative, friendly and quick to respond. She went above and beyond in every way and I felt very safe and confident with her watching my cat and house! I will absolutely book her again any time and highly recommend her!
