The Ultimate Cat Lady

My love for cats dates back to when I was a young child. Bringing home homeless cats and nursing them back to life was a regular occurrence in our family. I’ve always felt a special connection to them and have myself owned and fostered cats for over 20 years. I have experience with oral medication administration, have volunteered at the Humane Society as a cat behavior and socialization specialist, and currently own two indoor kitties. I’ve been called a cat whisperer because of my deep understanding of their behavior.

Safety, trust & environment

I follow any instructions provided and stick to the normal routine. I do not let cats outside and stay very mindful about entering and exiting the home in case pets are escape artists. I do not let dogs off leash and stay away from dog parks to maximize safety and minimize risk. I give pets a lot of attention while I’m home, I am an animal lover through and through.

Yulia was fantastic as usual! She took excellent care of my cat Bo and gave multiple updates and photos throughout the day, which was so appreciated! She is consistently reliable, professional, and left the house really clean! I look forward to working with Yulia again :)

Yulia was an incredible sitter for our senior cat Bella. She went above and beyond expectations, making sure Bella received her medications and treatments safely and comfortably, and even gifting Bella a new cat igloo because Bella soiled her old one. Yulia was very communicative, sending us photos and updates of Bella every day, letting us know how Bella was doing. Yulia cuddled with her, played with her, and put on calming cat music for her. Yulia was the ideal house guest, leaving our house just as clean as we left it, and even washing the sheets for us so we could come home to a freshly made bed after a long day of travel. I would recommend Yulia to anyone looking for a professional, experienced, personable, and lovely cat and house sitter.

Our boy is a tough cookie. He has a lot of ailments and gets agitated very easily but Yulia is so patient and kind to him. She really has a way with him and he seems to always be a happy camper when she watches him. It’s always such a relief when she stays with him when we’re away.

Yulia was fantastic!!! She stayed with my cat, Bo for 1 week while we were on vacation and she provided excellent care!! She sent photos multiple times per day, which I really appreciated and made me feel so at ease knowing Bo was in great hands! She was also flexible and happily willing to extend her stay when our flight was delayed! We came home to a super clean home which was so appreciated after a super long travel day! I look forward to working with Yulia again! :)

Schedule

I am a remote worker and make my own schedule. I do not board and only stay in client homes and work with one client at a time. It’s worth to note that for various reasons, I unfortunately do not work with outdoor kitty clients.

Quirks, daily routine, behavior issues, medications, any neighborhood dogs or people to avoid or who are safe for them to play with. Any additional pets not listed on the profile but who will be at the home.
