ElizabethMy name is Elizabeth and I’ve been a huge animal lover my whole life. I have 5+ years of cat-sitting experience and have cared for over 200 cats.

Since then, I have done cat-sitting through some of the popular pet care apps, but always hated how they were more geared towards dogs. I love cats because they all have unique personalities and you often have to really work to earn their trust - but when you do, it’s so rewarding! |
