Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable cat sitter, always nearby
I've been caring for my cat Finster, an orange tabby, since he was a kitten! He's now 11 years old and my very first pet. Through him I've learned how to read a cat's mood, respect their boundaries, and keep them comfortable and happy. I'm currently a master's student at Northwestern in downtown Chicago, and since I can't have Finster with me here (he's at home in California), I'm channeling all that love into caring for other people's cats. I'm patient, attentive, and will send you regular photo and text updates so you always know your kitty is in good hands.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your cat's safety and comfort are my top priority. Having cared for my own cat Finster for 11 years, I know how important a calm, secure environment is for a cat's wellbeing. For drop-ins and house visits, I treat your home with the utmost respect - keeping doors secured, following your specific instructions, and never rushing the visit. I'm attentive to signs of stress or unusual behavior and will always communicate anything out of the ordinary right away. You'll receive photo and text updates so you have peace of mind knowing that your cat is happy and relaxed.
Ratings and reviews
Zainab was extremely communicative and even took some time out of her day before the booking even started to come visit the cats and get familiar with their schedule. 15/10 catsitter, always kept me updated, and would hire again! :)
Zainab was fantastic! We loved receiving picture updates of our babies, and our three kitties seemed happy and well cared for when we returned.
Cats were super happy and well taken care of!
Needed a last minute cat-sitter and Zainab was very flexible with her schedule to help me out. My cats were very happy to have her around while I was gone. She made sure to send me updates and cute pictures from her visits. I highly recommend Zainab for your pet care needs! She’s the sweetest :)
Zainab was great with my cat Hazel! Very communicative and I loved the detailed updates and photos/videos :)
Zainab was exactly what I needed! She responded promptly, was able to accommodate a last-minute booking, and stayed very communicative throughout my trip. Most importantly, she was very sweet to my kitties and I would absolutely ask her to watch them again.

Schedule
As a master's student at Northwestern in downtown Chicago, my schedule is flexible and varies day to day, which means I can often accommodate drop-ins and visits at different times throughout the week. I'm not tied to a rigid 9-to-5, so I can work around your cat's routine rather than the other way around. I always communicate my availability clearly in advance so you know exactly when to expect me. Since I don't have a fur baby of my own here in Chicago, your cat will receive all of my love and attention!
- CatsZainab can host up to 6 drop-ins per day
