About Ilona
IMPORTANT: Kindly note that at the moment I can only catsit within 10min biking distance from the Zaandam station.
Hello! I’m Ilona and I’ve had cats since before I started walking. I am intensely curious and charmed by them, and find them anywhere I go. I believe it is undeniably important to give our furry companions the right and timely care. Whether you're jet-setting, at work or just need a helping hand, I've got your back. When you are away l'll provide a warm lap, playful company and all the love your furry companions crave. I’ll keep them comfy and content, all while sending you cute cat pics.
I am working remotely and available throughout the day for a 30 min visit as long as it is within 15 biking minutes of Zaandam. Evening and weekend visits for longer can be arranged. During my visit I will play, cuddle or let your fur baby chill, depending on their personality. I will feed them if they are picky with their food or need it at certain times of the day. I will clean and change their water, scoop out and refill the litter box. Photo and text updates will be sent every visit to assure your kitties are fine. I will also pick up your mail and water your plants if you want. Upon request I can also deep clean the litter box, administer medicine orally or through a needle, handle emergency transportation and vet, pick up supplies.
→ I speak English, Russian, a bit of French and Arabic.
→ 20+ years of experience with rescued pets, behavioral problems, feeding at specific times and a specific diet, administering medicine orally and through a needle.
→ I had cats of various ages throughout my life and volunteered at plenty of cat shelters so I am used to handling all kinds of kitty attitude. I am used to following complex instructions, as my cats had various conditions (one had kidney problems and was on a diet, another one was a rescue kitten I nurtured from a couple months old and subsequent neutering, another one required twice daily administering of medicine through a needle and a specific diet).
Don't leave your cat's happiness to chance. Reach out today for worry free travel and top-notch cat care that fits your kitty!
