Cat Sitting

10


10 per visit - - Posted Dec 04, 2016

Going on vacation, but need someone to watch your cat? Want somebody who will do more than just give your cats fresh food and water then leave? Then you've found the right person!

I am willing to visit your home and care for your cat (or cats) for up to 2-4 hours a day. In addition I will feed your cat(s), provide fresh water, play with your cat (only if they want to, I won't make them play if they're apprehensive or shy), pet them and/or brush them, clean the litter box, walking your cat (if applicable and you own a harness), and provide any necessary medication. If your cat requires medication, I will want to go over with you how much the cat gets and how it is administered to make sure they get the care they need and deserve.

If you need any plants watered then I'm happy to do that too, as well as bringing in any newspapers, mail, or other minor tasks.

If you would prefer someone who will just provide your cat fresh food and water then leave I am fine with that as well.

A visit is 1 day of kitty care. Discounts are available for over a week of cat sitting.

Training & Qualifications


I have owned cats most of my life, and I am an experienced cat sitter. Whether it's cat sitting for one or for multiple cats, I have you covered.

I also have experience with cats with visual impairment, which may be more apprehensive of new people.

No criminal record, drug free, non smoker.

Availability & Preferences


Any day, from 8am to 8pm, please live within 45 minutes of Bowie, MD.

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!

J received visit of Cat Sitting from Melanie
Jan 04, 2017
Melanie was absolutely fabulous taking care of my cat Luna. She provided all she said she would and more, doing some cleaning before my return from a ...long trip which was a huge help. She understands cats really well and gave Luna lots of attention, taking her out on walks which was totally not required. She also updated me via text and sent me pictures all the time! Super kind and responsible -- felt really safe leaving my baby for such along time!show more

About Melanie Barcant

Like many Maryland residents, I'm a transplant. I originally grew up in Florida and moved here in 2010, and I love it. I'm on a temporary hiatus from working and college to be a stay at home par...ent to my two school age children. I am very fortunate to have a loving and supportive fiancée to help me do this, since I know it's an opportunity many parents would love to have but simply can't afford. Although I'm not currently employed, I have kept myself busy with various volunteer jobs that are able to work around my schedule. Currently I volunteer at my children's school as needed. Before that I was doing volunteer work for a local hospice writing, updating, and tracking posts for prospective volunteers on VolunteerMatch.com. I also briefly volunteered as a bereavement caller, calling surviving family members of the deceased to help get them in touch with counseling or other services they may have needed. I also delivered home cooked meals to families with patients living at home to help ease the burden on them. I always try to leave things better than I found them, and volunteer work has been a great outlet to help me do that. In my free time I also love to hike, nature watch, bake, drink a good beer or a good cup of coffee, or play video games. I'm believe that diversity is a positive thing and I'm accepting of people of all different backgrounds, regardless of race, age, gender, nationality, political affiliation, sexuality, etc. show more
