About Marianne

I grew up and currently live on the North Shore and have had at least one pet cat since the age of 7. I love looking after and learning every cat's quirky personality. Growing up we had a senior cat who needed medication twice a day, in learning how to get her to take her medication, I learned that being calm and patient is key. At the moment, I have 2 cats, one 13 year old and one kitten.  

When is comes to introducing myself to cats, I find letting them come to you is the easiest way to gain a cat's trust and spending time with them in the same room goes a long way to help them feel comfortable with you. 

As a petsitter, I am happy to look after your fur-baby in your home. For once a day visits I aim to stay for at least 30min in your home, 2x visits a day, I'll spend a minimum of 1 hour in your home a day.

At the moment, I have suspended offering house sitting services, as I have just adopted a new kitten. I plan to resume offering house sitting in Spring of 2025

I am comfortable administrating medication to cats. For the time I spend with your cat, I will feed them, refresh their water bowl, clean their litterbox, play with them, pet them, and brush them if the cat is comfortable with it. 

If you have any specific request for me to do while you are away, such as taking out the garbage or watering plants, I am happy to do those as well.

I recently used Marianne to take care of my cat, and I was pleased with the experience. She was reliable, showed up on time, and made sure my cat had food, water, and clean litter each day. While my cat is usually shy, she seemed comfortable with her, which was reassuring. Overall, I appreciated her consistency and would consider using her services again.

Marianne looked after my cat Salem for 10 nights and she was great. She followed all instructions, sent daily pictures and eased my anxiety as this was the first time we left him for more than a day. Highly recommend.
