Experience: 7 yrs
I have had three cats in my adult life that I dearly loved. I've cat sat for friends' kittens, young or old cats for many years. Specifically, I have great game playing skills for cats. Whether it's a cat walker or a ball, I can get a lot of cats exercising through play. I am great at nail clipping, grooming, and learning about different cat diets and food planning. I feel extremely socially compatible with cats, which is to say, I enjoy sitting next to them, or being in the same room as them and simply enjoying their company. I know how to use cat carriers, and also give cats medicine like pills. I am efficient at cleaning any litter box (or other cleaning related to the cat) and know that's a part of most cat watching jobs. I can come to your house, anywhere in Chicago. I can also provide cat sitting in my own home. I'm new here, but it doesn't reflect my experience. Please give me a try, and please don't hesitate to ask for a recommendation by people I've cat sat for Thanks!

Blake is fantastic with our pup, Shallot! My partner and I have used Blake's services for walking and day care several times and Shallot absolutely loves him, which is saying a lot since Shallot is very discerning about his humans. We know we can depend on Blake to be reliable and responsive, particularly since Shallot is still a young doggo, needs a lot of play time and needs someone who is patient and understanding as Shallot can be somewhat anxious at times.
