💗 Hello February 💗

Love is in the air… and so are travel plans ✈️🐾

February is already hopping, and I’ve added the updated calendar so you can see availability at a quick glance.

Limited availability means I still have room for visits, but spots are filling and scheduling flexibility is getting tighter.
Booked means exactly that those dates are completely full.

If you’re planning a getaway, now is a great time to submit your requests before your preferred dates disappear.

As a solo, certified professional cat sitter, I carefully manage my schedule to provide consistent, reliable in-home care for every whiskered client.

March and April are already starting to fill as well (spring break + Easter tend to sneak up on everyone 🌸).

Service reminders:
• Drop-in visits only
• Visits are time-based per household
• Daily visits required
• Serving Buckeye, Goodyear, Litchfield Park, Surprise, and Waddell

Thank you for trusting Desert Whiskers Cat Sitting with your cats. I truly appreciate each family I serve.

Happy Whiskers Month 🐱💕

📚 January 2026 Continuing Education Complete

I’ve completed additional continuing education through Pet Sitters International, focused on time management for pet-care professionals.

As a solo, professional pet sitter, effective time management goes far beyond scheduling visits. It’s about setting clear boundaries, respecting business hours, streamlining communication, and making sure there’s space for rest and personal time so I can consistently show up calm, focused, and fully present for my clients and their pets.

Ongoing education helps me run my business with intention, not burnout. Protecting my time means protecting the quality of care I provide—and that’s a win for everyone (especially the cats 😸).

Always learning. Always improving.

Today is National Bird Day, and while I’m known for cats… today I’m making one small, colorful exception.

Meet Sherbet 💛
She’s the one bird I get to see during visits — and only because her family already has cats. When Sherbet joined the household, she became part of the crew too, which means I get the joy of checking in on her alongside her feline siblings.

While Desert Whiskers Cat Sitting focuses on cats, I do occasionally care for small companion animals already living in cat households — and Sherbet is proof that sometimes those visits come with feathers instead of whiskers.

Happy National Bird Day to this pretty girl who always brightens my visits 🧡

Let’s make 2026 a calm, stress-free year for your cats (and for you too).

December is National Cat Lovers’ Month, and it’s a good time to clear up a common misconception I hear from potential clients:

“My cats will be fine alone for a few days.”

The truth is — they won’t.

Cats are social creatures, even the independent ones. While some cats may not want hands-on attention, they still rely on someone checking in on them daily to make sure everything is working and nothing has gone wrong.

Water bowls get tipped.
Fountains stop working or lose power.
Auto feeders jam or malfunction.
Food gets spilled or runs out.
Even the best self-cleaning litter boxes can fill up or fail.

When no one is checking in, small issues can quickly turn into serious problems.

That’s why Desert Whiskers Cat Sitting follows Pet Sitters International’s Global Standards and requires a minimum of one visit per day. Daily visits protect your cat’s health, comfort, and safety — and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

Because loving your cat means making sure someone is looking out for them. 🐾
