Experience: 7 yrs
A dedicated cat sitter, which has provided me with valuable hands-on experience and professional expertise in working with cats in a family environment. This immersive experience has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of feline behavior and the nuances of building positive relationships between cats and their owners. In addition to my practical experience, I am a certified feline behavior expert with credentials from the Animal Behavior College, and holds further certifications in Pet CPR and First Aid, Feline Enrichment, and Pet Nutrition. She also completed the Shelter Cat Enrichment Course by FearFree Leaders in Animal Wellbeing. I offer valuable guidance to first-time cat parents, helping them navigate the complexities of cat care with confidence and compassion. Through my work, aim to create a world where cats are treated as cherished family members, with their well-being always prioritized.
Cris was absolutely awesome in taking care of our cats while we were away for a week. One of my cats needed two kinds of medication, and this is a cat that doesn't let you pick her up. But Cris was able to improve Turbo's medication routine with a calmer capture process. She proved that a cat behavioral specialist is a smart choice if you have unusual cat issues or older cats like ours. By the end of the week, Cris even got Turbo to sit calmly in her lap without trying to escape, which she never did for us. We received twice daily video updates (using Google glasses) that were much better than a text message or email —we could see how the pill-taking went each morning and night, plus playtime activities with all of the cats (especially useful for our oldest cat, who has weight issues due to a steroid medication). All of this is evidence of Cris' caring professional approach to making sure our cats had the best possible vacation experience. Thank you, Cris!
