Introduction
Hello, I’m Shawn, Owner of Desert Whiskers Cat Sitting. As a Certified Professional Pet Sitter, this is my full-time job. I specialize in caring for cats. With over 40+ years of paid experience, I’ve developed a deep understanding of feline behavior and needs. Here’s why you should consider hiring me: Insured and Bonded: Your peace of mind matters to me. I am fully insured and bonded, ensuring that your beloved cats are in safe hands. First Aid & CPR Certified: I take pet safety seriously. My certification in first aid and CPR means I’m prepared to handle any situation that may arise. Flexible Schedule: I adapt to your cat’s routine. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or cuddles, I keep the same schedule (or close to it) that you do for your own pets. Daily Drop-In Visits: While you’re away on business or vacation, I provide 1 to 2 daily drop-in visits to your home. Your cats receive personalized attention and care. My love and passion for cats drive me to be the perfect fit for any feline companion. I treat them as if they were my very own, ensuring they receive the care they deserve. Let me give you and your cat the best experience without the worry! 🐾

I thought I would finally have a pet sitter come to our house to take care of our 4 dogs having zero luck with boarding and boy am I happy I did. I was recommended to Shawn and wow she’s amazing. Text you every visit with a summary and photos of our babies. I can’t say enough about her she’s that good. Our pups love her too.

Details: Dog • 4 pets • Dispensing medication • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Two times a day • My home, venue, etc.

After only living here in Arizona for 3 months I was a little nervous about finding a pet sitter. Shawn was fantastic. She did a great job in caring for my cats and my rabbit. She was punctual and did a great job cleaning up after my cats and the rabbit. She sent me pictures everyday of my pets and gave me an update on how they were doing. I will definitely be hiring here again whenever I go out of town

Details: Cat • 5 pets • Changing litter or bedding • Giving food and water • Standard visit (60 minutes) • Once a day • My home, venue, etc.

We are so happy with Shawn’s work! She was our “5 kitty care taker” for a week, she administered needed medications, and followed every request made by us to a “T”, she sent multiple pictures of our fur kids each time she was in our home. The kitties played, ate and hung out with Shawn each time. It’s so hard leaving your pets with a stranger but Shawn made it easy to relax and enjoy our time away from home. She’s a keeper!! Highly recommended by us and 5 fur kids!!

Details: Cat • 5 pets • Dispensing medication • Changing litter or bedding • Giving food and water • Short visit (30 minutes) • Two times a day • My home, venue, etc.
