Availability
I work remotely from home, so my schedule is genuinely flexible and pet care fits naturally into my day. I’m available anytime during the week, not just evenings or weekends, so I can adjust to your pet’s routine rather than the other way around. Whether it’s a midday walk, a feeding schedule, or checking in between meetings, I have the time and flexibility to cater to what your pet actually needs.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, safety and consistency come first. In your home, I follow your routines exactly, feeding times, medications, walk schedules, so your pet’s day stays as normal as possible while you’re away. If care happens at my place, I keep a calm, distraction-free space and give your pet my full attention rather than juggling other animals. I don’t have pets of my own, which means no territorial issues, no competing for food or attention, and no risk of picking up something from another animal. I’m comfortable using crates, baby gates, or leashes if that’s part of your pet’s routine, and I always check in with you before making any changes.

Reliable and Attentive Cat Sitter
Cat care experience
Cats have always felt like an easy match for me, I understand that they need trust built on their terms, not forced affection. I've cared for shy cats who needed a quiet approach and slow blinks before they'd come out from under the bed, as well as confident cats who wanted playtime with a wand toy the moment I walked in. I know how to read litter box habits and appetite as signs something might be off, keep to feeding schedules precisely, and give scratching posts and cat trees instead of furniture. Whether it's a senior cat on a routine or a kitten full of energy, I adjust to what each cat actually needs and send photo updates so you can see they're comfortable the whole time.
Reviews
Shanika was an amazing caregiver to my own 2 cats, Simba and Kabab. They were very comfortable around her and I never booked anyone different after her. She's very professional and friendly and is always a pleasure to have her take care of my pets when I'm busy or away.
