Cat Sitting Norwood

“Tessa is absolutely wonderful! She is incredibly reliable, thoughtful, and communicative, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing Lexi is in her care. She sends the best updates and photos, and it is obvious that she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. Lexi has a big personality, and Tessa totally gets her. 😂 We are so grateful to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation!”

About: Before pursuing my career in elementary education as a special education paraprofessional, I spent three years working at a dog daycare and boarding facility, where I gained extensive hands-on experience managing groups of dogs, reading body language, and ensuring a safe, fun environment. I also spent time working as a veterinary assistant, gaining valuable skills in gentle handling, restraint, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. Additionally, I have been a devoted cat mom for over 20 years and have provided reliable pet sitting for family and friends' cats and dogs for the past decade. Why Pet Parents Trust Me: - Professional Animal Handling Background: My time in both a boarding facility and a veterinary clinic means I know how to safely handle pets of all temperaments and ensure they feel safe, happy, and secure. - Medication & Special Care: I am experienced and confident administering oral and topical medications, supplements, and following precise health routines for senior pets or those with special needs. - Special Education Paraprofessional Background: My career in education brings an exceptional level of patience, structure, and attentive care to every visit. I treat every animal with individual attention and consistent care. - Lover of All Ages & Species: From energetic puppies and playful dogs to gentle seniors and timid cats, I have years of personal and professional experience catering to pets at every stage of life. My workday finishes around 2:30 PM. This schedule gives me reliable, consistent availability for late afternoon, evening, and weekend drop-in visits. On Thursdays, I teach dance in the late afternoon, so my availability starts after 4:00 PM. Whether your pet needs an afternoon check-in, an evening meal and play session, or weekend care while you are away, my set schedule allows me to dedicate plenty of quality time to keeping your pets happy, safe, and right on routine! When visiting your home, your pet's safety and the security of your property are my top priorities: - Secure Entrances & Exits: I am extremely mindful of doors, gates, and windows during visits to ensure pets never have an opportunity to slip outside unexpectedly. - Home Respect & Security: I treat your home with total care and privacy, always making sure doors are double-checked and locked upon leaving. - Continuous Updates & Communication: You will receive detailed visit reports and photos after every drop-in, so you always know how your pet is doing, when they were fed, and that everything went smoothly. Tailored & Attentive Pet Care: - Routine & Consistency: I carefully follow your specific instructions for feeding, fresh water, medication timing, and exercise to keep your pet’s routine completely undisturbed. - Personalized Attention & Stress Reduction: Whether your pet loves high-energy playtime or just wants gentle, quiet cuddles on the couch, I meet every pet where they're at, adjusting to their personality and comfort zone. - Proactive Health & Behavior Awareness: With my background in dog boarding and veterinary assistant work, I continuously monitor body language and health to ensure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable at all times.

About: I’ve shared my home with dogs and cats my entire life, rescuing pets of all ages from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal has a unique story, and I make it a priority to train every pet I bring into my home. This hands-on experience has taught me a massive amount about patience, adaptability, and animal behavior. More than anything, it has given me a deep sense of compassion and a real knack for connecting with animals. I love bringing that structure and care to their lives, and I'm excited to bring that same dedication to this role. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet's exact schedule. I work full-time at a school, I am available for quick drop-ins on weekday evenings. I have open availability on weekends to give your pet all the time and attention they need. I offer personalized in-home pet sitting and drop-in check-ins tailored to your pet's unique needs. Your pet's comfort is my top priority, which is why I strictly follow their established feeding and exercise to maintain their normal routine while you are away.

“Isabell is the BEST!! One of our cats ended up locked in a spare bedroom and Isabell followed her meows and let her out. And then she sent us a video explaining everything. Would 100% have her back.”

I want to make things as easy as possible for you and your pet. If you have a list of dietary restrictions or medication they need to take, I’m happy to learn as well as get them the care they need. If they have a specific dinner or walk time, I want to make sure I stick to it for you.

“Kat did a wonderful job taking care of our two siamese cats. They are really needy, but were in great spirits when we got back. Kat was always on time and sent plenty of pictures while we were away. The food area and litter boxes were spotlessly clean and so was our apartment.”

About: Hi! My name is Abby and I’m so excited to meet your pets. I grew up with big dogs (German Shepherds, Pitbulls), as well as quite a few cats, including ones with medical needs. My sister and I currently have 3 cats, but I still LOVE dogs and always go hang out with my parents dogs when I can. I have experience overnight sitting dogs, and drop ins for cats and am excited for even more experience! I am working full time, but am happy to check in before work and definitely for a while after work. I can also check in during the weekend. In my home, I have three cats but am happy to separate if needed. My cats love to play and sleep! In others houses, I pay close attention to routines, and i want to make sure that your animal feels as though their routine is not disrupted. And that they feel loved and taken care of!
