A Cozy, Multi-Level Cat Paradise Our home is designed with cats in mind. It’s a quiet, spacious, multi-level apartment filled with natural light and endless cozy spots. Cats love our wraparound window ledges with gorgeous views of the trees and the green courtyard a perfect setup for sunbathing, bird-watching, or simply enjoying their own “cat TV.” We have multiple bedrooms, which gives shy or independent cats plenty of private areas to decompress, explore, or nap undisturbed.

How We Care for Your Cat We’re attentive to each cat’s routine and body language, offering playtime, enrichment, or calm companionship based on what they enjoy most.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Urmica & Gino were super sweet and enthusiastic about watching Leo. They sent us updates and photos during our trip. We felt that Leo was in good hands. Thanks so much for taking care of our furry baby :)
Urmica and Gino took amazing care of our anxious kitty while we were gone for over two weeks. We felt so comforted that she had such loving and attentive caretakers. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for great sitters.
Gizmo has a great time with Urmica and Gino. They sent us pictures and kept us informed.
Urmica and Gino were wonderful cat sitters for Ferris. They updated us on how he was doing and sent several photos of him throughout the 5 days. Very communicative and responsible. Would definitely recommend!
Urmica and Gino were great with Sammy! We weren’t sure how Sammy would adjust to being boarded for the first time in a while (and for nearly 3 weeks), but he largely settled in quickly and enjoyed their company. He spent hours watching the birds, curled up next to Urmica and Gino while they worked and even slept with them at times. Regular photo updates were provided and they even offered to drop off Sammy (which we politely declined). Would highly recommend and would book again!
Urmica and Gino were great with Ginny! Ginny seemed very happy to be in their care and we were so happy that they could take such good care of her on such sort notice. We will definitely be booking again!

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In our home, your cat will feel relaxed, safe, and entertained. We have plenty of space for them to explore or find cozy spots to lounge in. We have a cozy cat bed and a scratch pole, you can bring your own food if your cat is a picky eater. Our apartment has windows on both sides, offering different types of “cat TV.” One side faces Mission Street with passing cars and ocean views, while the other side gets beautiful morning sun and looks out onto a lively street where birds flutter by and people walk past. Whether your cat loves to sunbathe, birdwatch, or simply nap undisturbed, they’ll have a peaceful, enriching stay.
A typical day
When I’m walking dogs, I make sure it's more than just exercise,it’s an adventure! I tailor the walk to your dog’s energy level and personality, whether it’s a brisk walk for high-energy pups or a relaxed stroll for senior dogs. We’ll explore different routes, stop to sniff (very important!), and even play games like “find it” or practice fun tricks for mental stimulation along the way. For cat daycare, I focus on creating a calm and enriching environment. I spend quality time with each cat, offering gentle play with toys like feather wands or laser pointers, cozy lap time, and plenty of pets, if they’re into it! I also pay attention to their routines and favorite spots so they feel safe and cared for while you're away. Whether it’s playful or peaceful, I adapt to each pet’s unique personality and needs.
