About Me

I'm a cat lover who was raised by a veterinary technician. We had all kinds of animals at home including cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and horses.Cats have always been my favorite!

After growing up, I worked at Lacey Animal Hospital when I was in college, then moved to Portland and worked at DoveLewis in ICU and surgery.I'm trained to work with all types of cats, while prioritizing their safety and comfort. 💗

Catsitting Tips 🐈

  • If your cat has a detailed care routine, a Google Doc with instructions helps to ensure accurate care during visits, and is easy to share if you have multiple catsitters.

  • If your cat wears a bell on their collar, it's nice to give them a break from the noise when they're home alone.

  • Before you leave home, it's helpful to hide things that your cat might be able to knock off counters or eat.

  • Tell your catsitter about cleaning supplies and trash locations - in case there's any mess cleanup or stinky trash while you're gone.

  • If there's anything special that makes your cat extra happy, be sure to tell your catsitter so they can give your cat the best possible attention! :)
