Offering reliable kitty care to help you have a worry-free vacation
Your adorable furball is the joy in your life. We all know how important our furry friends are!
You need a reliable cat sitter to look after your precious kitty when traveling. Having someone caring and trustworthy to care for your feline companion is crucial. A responsible cat sitter can give you peace of mind, so you can truly enjoy your time away.
As a cat lover with a nurturing touch, I'd be honored to take care of your kitty (or kitties!)
Feel free to contact me to set something up for your next trip or vacation.
I serve Crozet, Ivy, Afton, Greenwood, Whitehall, North Garden, and parts of Charlottesville.
What my clients are saying
Remy and Daisy
“I love having Joanne take care of our kitties while we are away! She genuinely loves cats so much and it shows. I know my cats are in great hands. I know I can rely on her to give medications if needed, and respond to each of my cats' different needs. I have two very shy girls who have grown to trust Joanne, and I know that is because she has spent quality time with them and approaches them with kindness and gentleness. I know that I can absolutely trust Joanne to be reliable and show up when she says she will. My husband and I have great peace of mind whenever we go away that my babies are being taken care of in the best way! I would highly recommend to anyone."

“Joanne Showalter has been our cat sitter for 8 years, regularly caring for our cats and home. Our 1st experience required her to administer multiple meds twice a day for a much-loved cat with serious health problems. She was trustworthy and skilled and her love for the cat was apparent. Like all travelers, we worry about the unexpected happening but we have found Joanne handles all situations with mature intelligent decision-making and keeps us informed with texts and images. We think the world of her.”

“Joanne Showalter is AWESOME! She is very responsible, trustworthy, experienced, professional and very dependable. She comes to your house to greet you and your cat(s) before you go away on vacation. She takes notes on your cat-sitting instructions, and asks very good questions. It is evident she LOVES all cats as she interacts with yours during this greeting session. She stays about 15-30 minutes per visit and interacts and loves your cat(s). If she has any issues while away, she contacts you! I’m so glad we found her! I don’t have to worry at all about our inside/outside feline not getting love while we are away. Joanne will even take occasional pictures of your furry friends for you, if you like! She is a keeper!”
