🐈⬛ Friend to all felines, I'm Karin! I've had such success with Pawshake and finding sitters for my lil' old lady (Mariska), I thought I'd start pet sitting so I can help out other people like me!
ABOUT ME
I grew up with cats and have always had a cat in my life. I adopted my Mariska in 2005 (she was 3 months old!) and I was lucky to have 18 glorious years with her. In her senior years, she took liquid medicine 2x a day so I'm comfortable administering liquid medication should your cat require.
Currently, I'm fostering a floofy lady named Anastasia.
I am attentive and caring, patient and kind. Comfortable with cats of all ages - I am reliable and dependable & truly understand the weird quirks and routines our fur babies have! Need me to turn on the tap water and sit with them in the bath tub while they drink? No problem. Are they obsessed with a particular cardboard box? Of course they are. Does a particular meow mean they want something specific? I'm on it! Cats are the best.
LOCATION
I live in downtown Toronto (Yonge/Bloor) and will only be accepting bookings that are relatively close by.
VISITS
Depending on your cats needs, I can visit for up to an hour. I'll change their litter, feed them, refresh their water fountain or water bowl, give them some gentle pets and play. Or, if they're like my sister's very needy cat, I'll let them climb on top of me for an hour, lick my face and fall asleep in my lap!
FIRST TIME BOOKINGS
Before I confirm your booking, I need to meet you/your cat to see if we're a good fit!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
Karin was a fantastic sitter! She was punctual, communicative, knowledgeable, and passionate about cats. Karin sent regular updates and introduced a new toy that our cats adored. We were able to enjoy our trip worry free knowing our cats were in good hands.
Karin is an absolute gem! Kind, courteous, respectful, and reliable. We were a bit nervous to leave our kitty with a babysitter, as this was our first time using these services. As soon as I met Karin all of those anxieties disappeared. She is a very sweet person and it’s very clear that she has a genuine love and talent for caring for animals. Our cat just adored her! She took videos and pictures of our kitty and was very prompt with times and responses. If you have any hesitations using this site, book Karin! She will alleviate any nervousness and provide an outstanding experience! 10/10
