I'm Alyssa | Cat Sitting in Grand Rapids, MI

Hi, I’m Alyssa – a lifelong cat lover, professional cat sitter, and part-time servant to two very opinionated felines. I’ve never lived in a household without a cat, and today I have two of my own with completely opposite personalities—one is bold and affectionate, the other is shy and reserved. Living with such different cats has taught me how to adapt my approach, be patient, and truly read feline body language.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two kitties! Toast (orange boy) and Mochi (dilute tortie girl). Both are around 4 to 5 years old.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I give them time, space, and attempt to give treats. I gain their trust by being quiet and consistent so they may get used to me.

Alyssa did a great job with Jasmine. She fed her exactly how she likes it. She took time to entertain her. Everything when we'll.

Alyssa clearly loves cats. Not only does she take wonderful care of her own and makes sure they have exactly what they need to thrive, but she is invested in others too and always asks about how my older cat is doing. I know Alyssa to be a trustworthy and reliable individual and I have no doubt she would care for any cat as if they were her own.
