About Mary B.

I’m a big fan of cats! They are the most exquisite, elegant creatures! They were constant companions during my childhood growing-up in the Bay Area. My family and I adopted them from the local shelter or rescued them from the neighborhood. The first one I remember is Tickle, a beautiful, long-haired, gray tabby that my sister found as a kitten at a local park. As a teen, I literally became a cat mama when I bottle fed and raised a sweet, tuxedo kitten that was abandoned by her mother. I named her Chaps and she became a beloved member of our family for 20 years. I moved to New York City after graduating from college to continue studying acting and dance. I cat sat as I pursued my creative endeavors. I also adopted three kitties that I adored. One was a beautiful, large, black cat named Shorty. He was geriatric and the sweetest boy ever. I showered him with lots of love in his final years. I gained experience administering subcutaneous fluids as part of his care routine. Eventually, I moved to L.A. where I continued my cat sitting adventures. I adopted my two current fur babies, CoCo and Colby, from a rescue organization. They are sister and brother and the apples of my eye! I moved back to the Bay Area recently to be close to my family. I’m happy to bring my experience and passion to The Comforted Kitty team. It’s a privilege to spend time with each individual cat and develop a special bond. Whether you have a shy kitty who takes time to come out of their shell, an energetic kitten with impressive acrobatic skills, a senior cat who needs special care or a very social baby, it’s a great pleasure to provide extra-loving care and personalized attention.

“We had an amazing experience with Comforted Kitty! Mary, our sitter, was responsive, detail-oriented, thoughtful, and went the extra mile x 10! We couldn’t have been more delighted and impressed with the service we were provided. We got daily photos and reports. She was unafraid to ask questions about our kitty or our house. And she went above and beyond to make sure our nervous little princess was comfortable during our absence. We are not going to hesitate to use them again when the need arises. Thanks Mary and TCK!”

“I would highly recommend the Comforted Kitty and Mary. It’s hard to not worry about our sweet kitties when we are gone but the Comforted Kitty makes it easy to have peace of mind. It’s easy to book online and Mary, my wonderful catsitter, is a cat whisper and patient angel. She has such a gentle and sweet nature that my very shy cat that always hides actually comes out to see her! She also has the utmost patience with my very senior cat and coaxes her to eat as well as monitors her condition. She sends you pictures and daily updates so you know how your kitties are doing. I highly recommend Mary for your kitties. Dan, the owner is very responsive and supportive and runs a great and caring company.”

“Mary was my cat sitter and she did a fantastic job. She came by for the meet and greet and got to know the cats, what some of my concerns were, and what to expect. I was originally a little anxious to be gone out of town for a week, but after meeting Mary, I knew my cats were in good hands. She had a lot of knowledge about cat care, behaviors, and things to look for. I could also tell she just really loved cats. Exactly the type of person I’d want to leave my cats with 🙂 She sent me pictures of my cats every day along with a detail report of how they were acting and what they did. I really enjoyed that and it eased my mind to have someone take the job seriously. It costs a little more than having a friend or someone you know sit, but if you’re like me and want that extra level of love and care for your cats, give The Comforted Kitty a try :)”

“Mary has been caring for my cat and fish many times this year. She is wonderful and caring. I get pictures and an update daily. She also waters the plants and brings in the mail and sorts it! I am very happy with the Comforted Kitty.”

“"This was my first time using a petsitting service, and I have to admit that I was quite nervous about it. I was quickly reassured after the meet-and-greet with Mary! She was very sweet and had a calming presence that even made me calm. She was super patient with me when I went over the instructions and asked lots of questions! It was great! While she cared for the kitties and chickens, she sent me lots of detailed updates with pictures. These updates made me feel so at ease and reassured that my babies were getting the highest and most attentive level of care! These updates were my favorite part of my day while I was away. One of my kitties is extremely shy and doesn't come out when I have visitors, but Mary worked her magic and she came out for Mary almost immediately! I was shocked, but I took it as a sign that Mary was exactly the right fit for my babies and I am so incredibly grateful for her! Coming back home almost felt like I was doing my animals a disservice because it mean they wouldn't be get to see Mary again, and it almost makes me want to book another trip just to my babies will get to see their new favorite sitter again.

"Mary, my cat sitter is the absolute best! She’s super patient with my super shy kitties, and her visits are definitely helping them be less socially anxious. She’s super attentive to their needs and took great care of them. She even put in extra effort when the heatwave hit and did an extra visit before I got home to ensure the apartment was cool enough for them. I 10000% recommend The Comforted Kitty and especially Mary."
