Claudia’s Bio
For several years I worked as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital which included nursing care, administering medications and treatments, assisting in surgeries, helping animals pre and post-surgery, and more.
In my years as a veterinary assistant and since then, I've noticed that most pet sitters focus mostly on dogs, particularly young dogs. Cats (and older pets) often need a different approach to really thrive while their people away, and that's my specialty.
Often cats need more time to warm up to people, and really need the chance to come to you rather than the other way around. I've found it's important to allow for their independence while also being available, so that they get to choose how and when we interact.
That approach helps to lower their stress levels when their family is away and leaves them much happier. Indeed, the most common comment I get from my clients is that their cats seem much happier and relaxed when they return home.
This approach also works particularly well for older pets, who might need a little more space and calming energy.
While I specialize in caring for cats, I'm happy to love on and care for your other pets as well. Given my experience as a veterinary assistant, I'm also very comfortable administering any medication or other treatment that may be needed.
The amount per visit/check-in will vary based on needs and the number of pets, but will be in the range of $15-$25/visit. Overnight care is $65+/night depending on needs and the numbers of pets.
I'm a non-smoker.

Claudia watched our two cats this weekend while we were away. We came home to happy and healthy kitties! Claudia was professional and took great care of them. She sent updates and photos during her visits which helped me feel very at ease. I will definitely use her services again in the future!
We are very nervous of who we trust to not only be in our home, but also in the care of our three cats. Claudia did an amazing job with our kitties, sending us daily updates and pictures. They seemed very much at ease when we got home. We are so happy that we have found someone we can trust with our cats!
