🐾 Your Neighborhood Meow Care
Greetings fellow cat lovers! I'm Yifan, a research scientist and devoted cat parent to two adorable furballs. Working remotely gives me the wonderful opportunity to provide loving, attentive care for your kitties while you're away. Over the past six years, I've had the joy of caring for various feline friends, including my own, and those of my friends when they travel. To ensure I'm prepared for any situation, I've completed certifications in Cat First Aid and CPR from the American Red Cross and the American College of Veterinary Emergency & Critical Care. I'm fluent in both English and Mandarin, so please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you might have. I'd love to learn more about your kitties and how I can make their stay with me as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. Thank you for considering me as a caregiver for your feline family members. I promise to treat them with all the love and care I give my own cats!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Once again, Yifan was great with my cat Rhys! I appreciate her attention to detail and her thorough report cards! I enjoyed reading them each evening while away and seeing photos of Rhys. Thank you again Yifan for your thoughtful care of both Rhys and my place!
Yifan is the best. I asked her to take care of my two ragdolls. She took good care of my cats. They are getting more and more close to her. I am really grateful that I found Yifan on Rover
Once again, Yifan took great care of my cat Rhys and kept me updated with cute photos and updates! Thank you again, Yifan!
We have booked Yifan for several visits and Yifan has been consistently doing a great job! She will confirm food portions and other potential changes to the setup, and will communicate and take note of all the sessions and share beautiful pictures of the cats. We will love to have to keep working with Yifan on this.
Yifan took great care of my cat Rhys! I appreciated her detailed updates about her time with him and all the photos! I would use Yifan's services again and would highly recommend her as a pet sitter to others!
Yifan did an incredible job caring for our cat! She was detail oriented and thorough, and communicated well. She sent a nice description as well as plenty of photos for us to enjoy while we were away. She was flexible to drop in over the weekend as well. We will trust her to care for our cat in the future. Highly recommend!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
Cat care is my joy, not my day job! To make sure every visit is unrushed and full of quality time, I keep a few things in mind: • I'm on two wheels! I happily care for kitties located within a 15-minute bike ride. • You can find me available for visits on weekdays after 4 PM and for more flexible hangs on weekends. • To guarantee I'm totally free for your cat, I accept requests that are no more than one month in advance. This allows me to prioritize my commitments and be fully present for your pet!
Where your pet will stay
Safety, trust & environment
I respect your home and your cat's unique needs. Whether your kitty is shy, playful, or needs special care, I adapt to their personality and your household rules. My services include feeding, litter box maintenance, playtime, and medication administration if needed. I'd love to meet you and your cat before booking to ensure a great fit. The initial meet-and-greet is free! As for additional meet-and-greets or key collection/return, please book a 30-minute visit. I understand life can be unpredictable, so I'm flexible with same-day bookings and last-minute changes. Your trust means everything to me. I'm here to provide a safe, comfortable experience for your cat and peace of mind for you.
Pets
A typical day
I keep the cats active and engaged with interactive toys, laser pointers, puzzle feeders, and cardboard boxes for playing and exploring. If preferred, catnip and treats provide an occasional surprise. I provide brushing and petting sessions as appropriate. I also take pictures of the cats, so you can see them having fun while you're away.
