I'm Emily, a cats-only sitter based on Mercer Island.Â
I have been visiting cats in their homes in the greater Seattle area for 10 years.
Cats are sensitive critters that require trust, and that begins with an understanding of their unique behaviors, body language and socializing styles. They pick up on the energy we give off, and instinctively know when they are with a safe person. I aim to be a source of comfort, security and fun while their beloved humans are away! Playtime is very important to me (if the cat is interested) as it is a natural stress reliever for cats and can be beneficial while their routines are disrupted. I will usually bring some toys and treats with me to visits, and enjoy taking photos of cats in action!
