“Linda has watched my 2 cats twice now while I’ve been away and she is an absolute angel! I can’t say enough how she goes above and beyond for everyone’s animals and takes the time to do the little things. She has such a calm demeanor and really understands cat behavior, one of my cats is more skittish than the other and she warms up to her every time. I’m so grateful to have someone I can count on whwn I’m traveling! Thank you Linda!”

About: I’ve spent many years caring for a variety of cats and dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic pups needing daily walks and playtime to independent cats who appreciate quiet companionship, I’m skilled at understanding and meeting each pet’s unique needs. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, grooming, and providing loving attention to keep pets happy and comfortable. I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment for every furry friend in my care. Aside from dedicating quality time to my teenage kids and husband, I have ample availability to focus on other commitments. This flexibility enables me to be reliable and attentive, whether it’s for work, hobbies, or caring for pets. I provide attentive, stress-free care by following your instructions closely. I keep pets comfortable with play, cuddles, and routine, while also handling basic tasks like feeding, watering, and cleaning to maintain a happy, calm environment in your home.
“Katherine was incredible while we were away! She was so detailed in the care of our cats, played with them and ensured their litter areas were cleaned. Her communication was excellent and we loved all of the photos she provided. We will absolutely use her again!”
About: My name is Kearstin J. I am 31 and a current member of the Air Force for 12 years now. I have two very, very spoiled mini dachshunds and a 1 year old GSD that need friends and I also love meeting new animals! I've owned all sorts of animals including dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, reptiles, and birds. I have a very big heart and lots of love to give, even if it's just for a few hours or a couple of days. Your babies will most definitely receive love as long as they're in my care. My schedule is very flexible and I look forward to hearing from you! Have a great day! We would get up and eat and relax. Then let them run around in the big yard and get some energy out. Take turns going on walks and eat dinner. They can sleep with me or in a crate! Whatever makes them comfortable. I have a fenced in yard and will have an eye on your babies at all times! I also take the time to let them get to know me and my home when we first meet.
“After caitlin left one of the cats went around looking for her and seems upset she is not here. So yes highly recommend. She also sends photos of your fur babies durning the visit which clearly showed them being spoiled.”
