Hi! I'm a teacher and writer who has spent the past couple of years working in Shanghai. While I was there, I fostered a wonderful, snuggly, playful kitten named Tank. It’s a common misconception that cats are aloof, but my experience has taught me that like most pets, they do get lonely when their owners are away—my goal is to ensure that your pet receives all the loving attention they might want when you need to be away from them.
I would love to visit, take walks with, and care for your pet. I live with people who have allergies, so unfortunately my home is currently not available to board your pet, but on the bright side, I am especially willing to house-sit. I do currently work full-time in the city centre, but would be happy to care for your pet around my work schedule.
I have experience taking care of an entire family of hamsters, a grouchy terrapin named Senior, and the aforementioned orange tabby, Tank. I have also been a catsitter for colleagues and friends before. Some of these cats, as well as my own foster Tank, have been particularly anxious, so I am accustomed to giving pets the space they need while establishing a trusting bond. As you can probably tell, I have a soft spot for cats in particular, but am an animal-lover across the board. I understand how hard it is to be away from your pet, so I will share frequent updates and photos about how your pet is doing, so you can enjoy your time away without worries!
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
We were very pleased with Isa’s responsiveness and the way she communicated with us also after each visit to our cat (including picture). We will be happy if we can get her again to look after Cleo when we travel again next time. Thanks Isa!!!
Our cat tends to be shy and wary of strangers, but Isa made her feel comfortable with her gentleness and patience. We felt assured to have left our cat in Isa’s care and also particularly appreciated the daily updates that Isa sent. Thank you!
