I am a cat person through and through, having grown up with cats. I have a cat of my own and have volunteered with multiple organizations where I have helped care for and socialize cats. I am more than comfortable feeding cats, cleaning cats' litter boxes and water fountains, and spending quality time with cats. I am experienced with shy cats, fractious cats, and cats who require special medical care; I am comfortable administering medication (yes, even pills). I am very knowledgeable about cat communication and behavior, including when a cat needs the emergency vet--and we know they're great at hiding sickness. While I love all my cat charges, my human clients have unerringly been happy with how I go above and beyond for their fluffy family members. I also always keep a feline charge's human apprised of how their furbaby is doing with detailed updates and pictures.
Amaranthe was an incredibly sweet, conscientious and professional pet sitter for our cat during our recent out-of town trip. She was our first experience with a pet care professional (in the past we've relied on family and friends) and she immediately put us at ease with her thoroughness and kind demeanor. Our kitty was instantly comfortable too and Amaranthe kept us updated on him with lots of texts, photos and videos. Highest possible recommendation! We'll be including Amaranthe in our future plans!
