Pet care experience

Your cat loving professional

I have two cats of my own and consider myself to be more of a cat person. I’ve had really good luck with shy cats that owners end up saying “they’re never like this with anyone”. I think it’s because I have such a deep love for all cats and they can sense that. I’m really good at understanding cats body language and communications and respecting their boundaries. If you’re looking for someone who will love your cat as if they were my own, then you have found the right person.

Thank you so much, Whitney. I could not recommend highly enough. My cat loves Whitney, she's always so reliable, and I trust her in my home. Everything is always so easy and kind, she sends tons of pictures, and I'm grateful to have a connection.

10/10, Whitney is a gem and came to my last minute rescue when I got pulled out of town with only three days notice! Great reports after each visit, tons of photos, and Whitney is SUCH a great communicator. Will always recommend!!

There is no one better than Whitney! She treats your pet like her own and she will always be my first choice to watch my cat while I’m away.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am not available during business hours 8-5 Monday-Friday. I don’t have many other things going on outside of work and have plenty of time nights and weekends to look after your fur babies.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I’m tend to be overly cautious when it comes to safety of animals. I appreciate detailed instructions if a pet needs special care or if there’s a certain routine that I need to follow in order to keep your pets as safe and healthy as possible.

Pets

A typical day

I know that stopping to sniff is the most enriching part of a walk for dogs so I don’t rush through them. I want the dog to enjoy their time outside. For cats, I let them dictate what they’d like, if they want to play I will engage with them using one of their toys or if they just want to sit around I’ll give them some space but just provide some attention when it’s wanted.

I’d like to know any triggers your pet may have, their temperament around other dogs, wild animals, children, etc so I can do my best to distract and keep them safe. Are there any routines in place or commands/release words.
