Serving San Diego

Offers care for cats

Professional & Experienced

"My favorite thing about cats is how each cat is a unique and wonderful personality. They contain so many multitudes- they can be silly, sassy, aloof, independent, elegant, and of course, adorable, all at once."

About Neshama R.

I’ve been a cat sitter for over four years, and I absolutely love it. I feel incredibly honored to be trusted with the care of people’s precious family members. I adore cats, but my family has always had dogs growing up, and cats just weren’t in the picture for us, so when I started cat sitting in my teens, it opened up a whole new world for me, and I discovered I was completely, unequivocally a cat person. I love everything cats and about cats, including the gross stuff, and I’m currently planning on going into veterinary studies. Animal care is one of my greatest passions, and I volunteer with the cats at the Humane Society twice a week. Additionally, I’ve done community cat Trap, Neuter, and Release with the East County Animal Rescue. I love to take photographs of cats I sit for, so my clients usually end up with lots of photos of their pets at the end of their trips.

What Clients Say About Neshama R.

"She is very attune to those around her- she cares deeply for animals and has their utmost care at heart. She gives her full attention and is very devoted."

Gabrielle P.

"Neshama is deeply compassionate while retaining a capacity to be very grounded and present. So, even while engaging with truly difficult topics and truths with caring, insight, and also with the skills to communicate and connect effectively with all involved, Neshama remains grounded, calm, and thoughtful. Having observed Neshama working on projects with people representing many ages, abilities, and life situations, I am impressed by Neshama's attunement with every individual; I expect this capacity for attunement extends to being with non-human animals as well. Neshama's unique blend of humor, insight, compassion, intelligence, and capacity to remain calm and engaged in difficult situations will make them an asset on any team."
