Hi there everyone! My name is Barb and I have been a cat mamma for over 30 years! I love all cats and enjoy getting to know their personalities.

Barbara's Reviews
Ryan
Barbara was great with our pets while watching them for a week. She was super communicative and made sure to spend time with the cats to ensure they were doing well. We would definitely contact her again for future pet sitting!
Jason
Barbara is fantastic - we loved receiving our daily updates and the fact that our shy kitty warmed to her quickly made us feel feel so so comfortable with her as a go to sitter for future trips!
Jessica
Barb was a wonderful caretaker for our 2 kitties while we were out of the country for 2 weeks! She provided detailed updates for every visit, pictures, took in mail & packages, watered plants, and cleaned up messes made by the cats. Above and beyond, highly recommend!!
Carol
Barbara took such excellent care of my fur babies, again. I actually planned my vacation schedule to her availability, because I know the excellent care she gives my cats. Noah requires oral medicine 2x per day, and she administered it better than I do! I am very grateful there is someone who loves my kitties like their own to look after them.
Laura
