I do this full-time, and am more than happy to take on the biggest challenges and longest sits. I like all cats, so no little guy is a big issue for me.

Safety, trust & environment

I respect every aspect of your home - I’ll clean up any mess left from mealtime, make sure that the floors are dry after a drink of water, and wash any dish that I use in my time (for extended stays). In addition, I’m happy to get mail or take out any garbage to the curb.

Information Nick J. would like to know about your pet

I'm happy to schedule meet-and-greets (free of charge) to get to know your pal, where we can discuss all that they like (and I take comprehensive notes!) and what they need each visit. If your pet has special needs, give me a heads-up, and we can walk through what it looks like at a meet-and-greet or you can simply write it out for me. Whatever's better and easier for you!

A typical day

I absolutely love playing around with kitties - flying about all over the place with a laser pointer or string toy or Cat Dancer (my preferred cat toy) is a great way to spend the day! Of course, I also give them lots of TLC - brushing, petting, head-scratching and so on.

Fur-Real Cat Care

Cat care experience

I’ve professionally looked after cats for about 2 years at this point on another platform, and I’m happy to expand my services to cover Rover’s userbase! I’ve worked with cat parents to give an amazing experience to their kitties while they’re away - with over 150 happy and satisfied customers to date, and over 50 who have found my services worth booking again! Your cat’s schedule is paramount, as well as their entertainment. I’ll do anything in my power to make them comfortable - even lying on the floor to play with them!

Nick did a great job. He communicated well and made us feel comfortable that our cats were well cared for.

We just recently completed a 2+ week vacation, the longest we have left our cats at home. It is such a relief to know that Nick is taking such good care of them! We enjoyed his notes and photos after each visit. The cats obviously felt so comfortable with Nick that they treated him like family!!

Nick is a great sitter for any pet! He is extremely professional and communicative, and was very sweet with my cat. The little friends love him and he is always respectful of their space! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable sitter!

Each sitter joining needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Cat in a Flat, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
