Cat sitting by someone who's actually a cat person.
Three years of senior and hospice cat work at Greenhill Humane Society. I know what a quiet greeting looks like, what a sick cat looks like, and the difference between hiding and unwell.
Cats are not small dogs. They don't want a long walk and a wrestling match — they want their territory respected, their schedule kept, and a calm human who reads the room. I'm that.
What a cat visit looks like
- I let myself in quietly. No big "hello!"
- Feed — wet, dry, special diet, prescription, whatever your cat needs
- Refresh water (fountains too — I'll clean and refill)
- Scoop boxes thoroughly. I'll sweep around them too.
- Brushing if your cat's into it, play with their favorite toy if they are, slow blinks across the room if they aren't
- Medication — pills, liquids, transdermal, subQ fluids. I've done it all.
- A photo and a real note: "Mochi ate everything, hung out under the bed for ten minutes then came out and headbutted me twice. All good."
Senior and special-needs cats
This is where my Greenhill background matters most. I've cared for hospice cats, cats on subQ fluids three times a week, cats with kidney disease, hyperthyroid cats, blind cats, deaf cats, FeLV+ cats, and an awful lot of senior cats who just needed someone gentle.
If your cat is medically complex, mention it on the call — we'll go over routines in detail at the meet-and-greet.
Multi-cat households
No extra charge for additional cats. I'll keep notes on each one — who ate, who used the box, who came out to say hi. If you have a cat who needs to eat in a separate room because they steal food, I'll manage that.
Pricing
$35 per 30-minute visit. All cats in the household covered.
$58 on holidays.
Need a 60-minute visit (multiple medications, several cats, a kitten)? $47.
How often should I book?
For most adult cats, once a day is plenty. Twice a day if your cat is on medication that needs spacing, or if they're a young one who really wants company.
For kittens under six months: twice a day, minimum. Possibly three.
Where I serve
Cat care across Eugene, Springfield, Veneta, Cottage Grove, Junction City, and Creswell.
My own cat is Claude, a four-year-old Maine Coon. So we're aligned philosophically.
