About

I have had cats in my life for several decades. All personalities, shy cats, talkative cats, young cats, mature cats. My rates for the months of May-September 2025 will be $35 a visit for jobs involving a one-way drive time of 30 minutes or less. My basic rate for one daily visit includes replenishing food and refreshing water. Scooping litter and refreshing litter box as necessary. If the cat's personality enjoys human company, I provide brushing and a brief period of play. I can also bring in mail and packages and give houseplants water as required. I am willing to discuss rate of pay for overnight care and general house sitting services. I serve Lakewood/Wheat Ridge areas.

Arlene took great care of Willow while we were out of town! We got some pictures and it sounds like they had fun getting to know each other. Definitely booking again for future cat sitting!

Took wonderful care of my very shy cat, who actually visited with her. Sent me pictures and updates every few days. Arlene calls herself the cat whisperer and I believe her.

Arlene watched my cat Cinder for three days while I was out of town and her communication and companionship to my cat were great! She sent photos of her each visit along with an update which were all so kind. She also left a sweet welcome home card when I got home! I don’t travel much, but Arlene will be a 100% yes if I do!

Arlene is a gift. She is incredibly attentive, responsible, knowledgeable, organized and most importantly kind. I received phots and reports every day. She genuinely cared. She is now my go to kitty sitter!
