💫I keep my calendar up-to-date & currently booking through August 17! July 9, NO morning. SCHEDULE: I am typically available to make visits between 9a & 6p daily. However, can accommodate as early as 8a and as late as 8p depending on day(s). Sometimes, I am not available for evenings or 2x/day. Include preferred time frames as well as verification of location with nearest train stop to expedite your request! REQUESTS ?QUESTIONS: I am usually available between 9a & 9p to respond and will always do so as soon as I am able--Thank you! Rover may suggest you add multiple sitters to your request because they are only concerned you book, not with whom. But that is not necessary & actually quite frustrating to receive as a sitter. If you choose me for your pet's care, I will respectfully answer as soon as I am able, typically within minutes unless I am with other cats/dogs, engaged in a personal activity, away from phone, or sleeping. I appreciate the opportunity to reply & am happy to see if I am able to make your requested visits. Please don't be a 👻 Thank you!

Cat care experience

I absolutely ADORE cats!!! My second language is speaking theirs. Cat-ease? Feline-ish? Meow-ian? Whatever you call their language, I am fluent!🐈‍⬛ 🐈I guess this makes me a cat whisperer? I am patient & non-threatening, allowing all cats to chose when they are comfortable to approach & what type of attention they would love to receive-always on their terms! If you would like worry-free care for your beloved felines, I'd love the opportunity to provide it while you're working, socializing, traveling, or any time you need assistance🐱 💫I keep my calendar up-to-date & currently booking through August 17!

Wonderful sitter! I loved that Kara came over before the visits to meet our two cats and also to see where all the supplies are. She is very communicative and sends great updates. I felt at peace knowing my boys were in good hands w her while we were out of town!
