Yuriy watched my 6-year-old orange tabby, Oliver, for 3 1/2 days while I was off traveling. Oliver is by no means an easy cat. He often becomes territorial and aggressive towards others when he's in an unfamiliar situation. Despite Oliver's hostility, Yuriy handled him with grace and understanding. Yuriy came for morning and evening visits to feed, clean the litter, and administer Oliver's medication. Yuriy would also send me updates with photos and photos/videos. Yuriy is professional, respectful, communicative, and detail oriented. For our meet and greet, he took meticulous notes and asked every question you could possibly think of about Oliver, the apartment, medication, etc. Despite Oliver's behavior, Yuriy went out of his way to ensure Oliver was always safe and fed. I had peace of mind knowing Yuriy was looking after Oliver. If you need a cat sitter for your next trip, book Yuriy now!

Yuriy was fantastic. He gave thorough updates and we felt confident and comfortable leaving Bear in his care. Bear gets two medications and fluid treatment and we were grateful that Yuriy was able to administer all of it. Everything was tidy and our usual shy girl was up and about instead of hiding somewhere like normal when we leave. Bear was a happy girl.

Yuriy has been my goto cat sitter many times and he's amazing. During my recent vacation, Yuriy noticed my boys had an ear infection. Yuriy took samples of the discharge and examined them. He went above and beyond to get us the cleaning solution and that helped with the irritation. Would definitely recommend Yuriy!

Yuriy is a cat whisperer. He’s been great with our normally shy cat. She gets meds and an IV treatment, Yuriy is a real pro. His updates are informative and provide all the info I’d ask about Bear, without asking. He has a genuine love for cats and we returned to a happy girl.

I used Yuriy again to look after my senior cat while I was away and he did an amazing job. He administered all medicines as needed, played with him, and sent me great content throughout his visit. I know Shadow is in great hands when I’m hiring Yuriy. He is incredibly caring, knowledgeable and professional.

Yuriy did a terrific job caring for our senior diabetic cat, Shadow! I reached out to him needing 3 days worth of visits and he was immediately responsive. We set up a meet and greet for the day before our departure so that him and Shadow could become acquainted and so that I could give Yuriy a run down of everything/give apartment keys. Shadow requires insulin every 12 hours via needle during feeding and Yuriy did a wonderful job. We looked forward to his lengthy, detailed texts including photos and videos describing everything he did with Shadow: fed, injected, brushed, scooped litter box, cleaned up, and played. Shadow absolutely has a new friend and I will call upon Yuriy again - He is very professional, trust worthy & a true cat lover!!!

We could not ask for a more caring and detail-oriented cat-sitter than Yuriy. He followed our instructions to the letter when it came to feeding and medicating our kitty, who is on a special IBS diet and medicine regime. And he kept us involved in the process by checking in daily about Fitz's appetite and bowel movements, sending adorable pictures and videos along the way. This was Yuriy's third time taking care of Fitz, and it's clear that Fitz was very happy to spend time with Yuriy, who is always gentle and playful with him. We definitely hope to book Yuriy again in the future.

We booked Yuriy for a period of a little over a week, primarily to administer liquid medication to our little buddy Fitz while one of us was traveling (since we struggle to medicate him by ourselves). He was incredibly professional throughout the entire experience and was attentive to Fitz’s needs. Since I was still around, he was very communicative about when he would be coming by (so we never took each other by surprise). On the occasions where I was at home during his visits, he even allowed me to observe the medication administration while providing helpful tips. Yuriy is an absolute class act – We love working with him and hope to book him again soon.

Yuriy was fantastic! We have two shy kitties, and he went out of his way to make them feel comfortable. He took lots of notes when he came to meet us, and sent lots of updates when we were away. Thanks Yuriy!

Yuriy is my go-to sitter. He took care of my cats for 2 weeks during my vacation. He is very attentive and provides detailed summaries on every visit. He goes extra length to make sure the temperature is set properly and the litterbox area is clean. Would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Yuriy is a polite and respectful cat sitter who took great care of my shy kitty when I had to travel for 2 weeks. He was able to quickly put my cat at ease and took meticulous care to ensure that she was safe, well-fed and happy. I could tell that they got along very well and my cat totally looked forward to his daily visits. Yuriy dutifully gave me detailed updates everyday, complete with pictures and videos, and was always accommodating with special requests. Truly, he is a cat-whisperer and you won’t go wrong engaging him. Thanks Yuriy for taking such good care of Yuzu!

As expected, Yuriy has exceeded any expectations! He sent over all detailed reports and pictures after each visit and we were so at peace knowing our kitties were in good hands. Our shy boy opened up to him at record pace! Highly recommend Yuriy as always.

Yuriy is an AMAZING sitter!!! I cannot recommend him enough! I have a very sassy cat and he is so good with her, letting everything happen on her terms and she quickly warms up. He provides thorough updates and amazing pictures. I know my baby is in good hands when he is watching her.

Yuriy is the absolute best! Incredibly thorough and professional, he graciously minded the unique needs of our little monster kitty - which included daily administration of oral medication, among many other things. It was clear that our 9 yr old tabby grew very comfortable with Yuriy during their visits, which he recapped in detail to us daily along with photos and videos. He absolutely went above & beyond in not only entertaining Fitz, but also ensuring his comfort. Yuriy also put a lot of effort into the daily photos; he sent us some of the best snaps we've EVER seen of our kitty bud, including a few lovely portraits. I'm so happy we found Yuriy ... He really took the stress out of leaving our little furball behind. We hope to have the pleasure of booking him again soon.

Yuriy is a DREAM come true when it comes to cat-sitting. I had to suddenly leave town to deal with an urgent matter on the other side of the country and Yuriy was reassuring and thorough in his meet and greet. His write-ups, photos, and videos were detailed and lovely and helped take the sting out of missing my beloved cat because I knew she was in excellent hands. I came home to a happy, satisfied kitty after being away for six days. I cannot recommend Yuriy enough if you want a knowledgeable, communicative cat-sitter who clearly loves cats and will make yours feel loved in your absence.

Yuriy was fantastic! I had a sphynx with FIP that needed daily subcutaneous injection. Yuriy took care of him very well. On the day of visit he gave very detailed updates and made sure my worries were addressed. He even went above and beyond to make sure my cat was warm. I would highly recommend Yuriy!

Yuriy was a fantastic sitter. I have two cats, one of which is diabetic. The diabetic cat requires insulin shots twice daily, which Yuriy handled extremely well. Yuriy was responsive, responsible, and very detail oriented. It's hard to find sitters that can deal with my cat's special medical requirements as well as the behavioral issues that come with it. I can't recommend Yuriy highly enough!

Yuriy was beyond perfect. From the day of meeting my cat, i was super impressed with his passion for cats and attention to detail. I was away for 4 days and Yuriy kept every single point in check and continously sent me photos, videos and poop/pee details of my cat Berry. He teeated Berry as his own cat! i cannot recommend him enough. Every single instruction was followed to perfection and even more. His humble attitiude and love for animals makes him the perfect cat sitter!

Yuriy was AMAZING!! My cat took to him right away, and he provided me many pictures and videos! would highly recommend for anyone with a spicy or shy cat.

Yuriy did an amazing job taking care of my Chives! He sent very detailed updates and I could tell he genuinely cared about her. Administered the meds perfectly too. I definitely recommend him!

Yuriy has been excellent with communication and details. I received multiple pictures of my cat playing and relaxing. he took the time to play with him, cuddle him. I am very happy with the service that Yuriy did in my absence. It made my trips away from home so much relaxing as I know my cat was perfectly taking care for. I definitely will recontact Yuriy for my next trip. I will definitely recommend Yuriy to anyone who asked. Thank you very much! Amalie

Yuriy is always so attentive to our little buddy's needs, and very meticulous with the details of both his standard daily care and his oral medication. We also really appreciate his detailed updates and visit recaps. We feel so much better traveling when we know Yuriy is on the case!

Amazing, as usual! This was our fourth (fifth?) time with Yuriy and he did an excellent job, as per usual! No one else we trust more with our kitties.

This was our third or fourth time working with Yuriy — I’m starting to think our kitties like him more than they like us! He is the absolute best. Professional, responsive and great with cats! Highly, highly, highly recommend!

We are repeat clients of Yuri and have had an amazing experience every time! Our cat can be very difficult, and he really makes the effort to be extra understanding with her. 100% recommend!
