Safety, trust & environment

When caring for cats, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where cats feel comfortable and cared for, whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow each pet’s routine closely, ensuring they have fresh food, clean water, and plenty of affection. I take time to build trust with every cat, using patience and gentle interaction so they feel safe and happy while in my care.

Information Yulia K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your cat has any special behaviors or requirements I should be aware of. Do they have any routines, quirks, or sensitivities I should account for? Let me know what they enjoy — favorite toys, treats, or play styles — as well as any grooming needs such as brushing or nail care. If your cat has medical needs, specific feeding instructions, or dislikes certain interactions, please include those details too.

A typical day

When I watch your cat, I’d make sure they have a fun and engaging time! We could play chase with a feather wand, roll jingle balls or toy mice around for them to pounce on, and maybe even try some puzzle toys with treats inside to keep their mind active. I’d also make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and cuddles so they feel happy and loved while you’re away.

Pet care experience

I provide Drop-in Visits and Boarding services specifically for cats. Whether you need someone to stop by your home while you’re away or prefer that your cat stays in a safe and comfortable environment at my home, I make sure every cat receives attentive care. My visits include feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, gentle brushing, and plenty of affection — all tailored to your cat’s unique personality and needs. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your cat is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’ve had cats all my life and have experience caring for a wide variety — from energetic kittens with rambunctious personalities to calm, senior cats who prefer quiet companionship. I understand that each cat has its own quirks and comfort zones, and I always treat them with patience, kindness, and respect. Because I work from home, I have the flexibility to give your cat extra attention when needed. I’m available mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays, and I take pride in offering dependable, loving care to ensure your cat feels safe, relaxed, and loved until you return.

Yulia and her daughter were consistent and had great communication. They gave one of our cats his inhaler every day and paid extra attention to our cats through playtime and snuggles. We were happy to know that our cats were getting loved on while we were away. Thank you again for taking care of Spooky and Jinx!

Yulia was very quick to respond and was able to take care of my cat for 8 days while I was out. She made sure to provide updates and pictures throughout.

Yulia went above and beyond while taking care of my cat, Pico. I highly recommend her and would love for her to care for him again! Thank you so much, Yulia!!
