I started Kitty Kritter Sitter™ in March of 2003 and I now have many wonderful clients and friends. Before starting my business, I enjoyed
pet sitting for my friends and family. Enjoying all the different kitties, I decided to start my own business. Having no references
except from family members, my very first client took a chance with me. Thanks to her and many others, Kitty Kritter Sitter™ now has over 370 wonderful clients.
I joined Pet Sitters International (PSI) to increase my knowledge
of pet sitting. With the help of PSI and several other local pet sitters, I have learned a great deal. I have developed many
new friends and find pet sitting a very rewarding career.
I am comfortable taking care of all types and ages
of cats and can administer medication as needed. For many years I have cared for my loving cat Hobie she was 19 years old
when she went to kitty heaven.
We now have
two kitties, Maggie is 10 years old and Nikki is 7 years old. We rescued Maggie or should I say she adopted
us. Nikki is a Siberian Forest cat and she came from a local breeder.
My love for cats is the reason that I started
this business. I recently retired from my other full time job after 21 years. Now I can devote all of my time to my
passion for taking care of all the kitties. I provide personalized in-home pet care. I actually come to your home so you are
able to leave your pets in a familiar surrounding. I try to follow your pet care routine as closely as possible. This, of
course, includes feeding and watering and giving any medication your pet may require. I also spend what I call "quality
time" with your pet - just playing, petting and loving, so your pet receives personal attention while you're away. I'm
happy to keep an eye on your home at the same time by doing such things as bringing in your mail and newspaper, alternate
lights, opening and closing curtains and blinds, watering plants - activities that give your home a live-in look.
My charges are based upon the number of visits made. I do require at least one visit per day while you are gone.
Four days notice is requested for my services. In this manner, we have time to set up an in-home consultation with you and
your pets. This initial meeting is required before reservations can be confirmed. My fee for each visit is $18.00. There is
no charge for the in-home consultation.
