Meet Kristin and Her Crew
Kristin
I have been a professional pet sitter in San Francisco for over 13 years now. From 2004-2015, I had worked as a veterinary assistant at a cat veterinary hospital in San Francisco. Through my work experience, I have gained knowledge in caring for a cat in a professional manner. I am a professional cat sitter that is able to give proper care and assessment. After working with hundreds and hundreds of cats over the years and catering to all different types, I am well trained to handle and treat kitties with medical conditions.
From having two cats of my own, I know how hard it may be to let another person take care of your loved ones. It's never a good feeling to have to leave your pets alone at a boarding facility. That is why I personally recommend having a pet sitter to watch over your cats. Instead of being caged up at a boarding facility, cats can be watched in the comfort of their own homes. I will gladly service any cats in the area of San Francisco. With my cat services, every cat will be treated as if they were my own!

Hello, I'm Anna! Growing up around animals, I've developed a deep love and understanding of pets, which has made me a gentle, patient, and detail-oriented cat sitter. For years, my neighbors and friends have entrusted me as their go-to neighborhood cat sitter, and I am committed to providing exceptional care for your feline companions.
While I can't have a cat of my own in my San Francisco apartment due to tenant rules, I treat every cat I care for as if they were my own, giving them the love and attention they deserve. I'm a remote employee, allowing me the flexibility to do drop-ins based on your cat's needs. I am also respectful of my clients' homes, always leaving them clean and just as I found them. I know it can be uncomfortable letting in a stranger in your home, but with me, you are lending the keys to a friend. I look forward to meeting you and your feline friend! |

Aisha’s love for cats has exploded since her mum took her to a local cat show as a wandering 5 year old. Growing up in Malaysia, she has over 15 years of experience caring for both indoor and outdoor cats. Her heart is ever expanding with more and more cats. 80% of calls with family are either cat-watching or exchanging cat stories and she’ll care for your cat as if it were her own. She enjoys baking, cooking for her roommates, a combo of reading + art-ing, and taking walks at Golden Gate Park while keeping an eye out for all kinds of local wildlife.

Nicole
Hi! I’m Nicole! I grew up in Point Reyes around a lot of animals: cats, dogs, horses, chickens and cows. And now I live with two adorable cats Toby (aka “Big Kitty” aka “Biggs”) and Henry (aka “Little Kitty” aka “Liddles”). They are so special to me and we share such a special bond. They are super cuddly and sometimes absolutely hilarious. Guests and friends (and even neighbors) have said they are the coolest cats in town :) When I’m not taking care of my fur babies I’m a theatre and dance teacher as well as a professional choreographer, director and performer. I’m so excited to take care of more kitties in the community!

Hi my name is Lisa, I am a life long animal lover and have a special fondness for the furry feline variety! I've lived in the Bay Area for 37 years and have fostered and shared my home with many cats over this time! I also love children and dogs and other animals that are often found paired with humans!
I LOVE playing with kittens, it may be my favorite thing, but I also have a lot of experience with older cats that require medication, including the daily administration of insulin injections for diabetic cats or getting a pill into their little tummies. I have also learned how to do basic kitty grooming, nail trimming and deep cuddling! I am proud to be a member of Kristin’s Kitty Care Team! There is nothing quite like a dedicated, responsible cat person! I look forward to meeting you and serving your family! |
Linda
Hi! I’m Linda! I am a born and raised San Francisco native. I have always, always loved all animals. When I was younger, my Dad would leave me at whatever the closest pet store was while he ran errands and then pick me up when he was done. The determining factor for going somewhere is if there will be animals there or not, or if I can bring 1 (or all 3!) of my pups. I am that person who is on the floor during a party playing with the animal! As a fur Mommy, I understand both sides of the kitty and family of not being together and the importance of ensuring that everyone continues to feel secure and happy. I am patient and allow the cats to come up to me, on their own time, and when they are ready. I don’t want to be a space invader! Cats will definitely let you know what is okay and what isn’t and I respect that, them, and their home 100%! Kristin Kitty Care has given me the chance to meet and connect with a lot of great kitties!
Rashi
Hi I'm Rashi, I have been in the Bay Area for almost 20 years (minus the one year i spent on the Big Island of Hawaii)! I love to read, do arts and crafts, cooking and healing in nature. I currently have two kitties myself, a brother and sister which I adore. One of my kitties love to go on leashed walks with me, she's such a brave explorer. I love cats and find them to be warm, loving and sweet companions for any zen introvert.

Jen

My name is Jen, and I was born and raised in the Bay Area. Growing up with many cats and 2 bunnies, I’ve had an undeniable love for animals since I was young. Animals bring me so much happiness and I love seeing the unique personalities of each one. Currently, I am a mama to 3 kitty boys with my partner ranging from 3-9 years. I have experience in caring for pets post-surgery & giving medication when needed.
I enjoy creating ceramics in my free time & work as a freelance photographer so you can be sure that I will send you a ton of cute photos of your cats! |
Bryan

Hi there! My name is Bryan and I have been a San Francisco native for most of my life. I went to school at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and I never would have imagined that I would raise two lovable cats, both young and old, as well as an adorable puppy. During that time, I learned to love cats and the strong relationships that they form with you. I currently work as a designer in the Bay Area and love interacting with all kinds of animals. My favorite hobbies include exercising outdoors, playing on my computer, and tinkering with my 3D printer. I look forward to meeting you and taking care of your cats; I promise I will work my hardest to give your feline friends the best lives that they can live! |
Johnny

Hi, I'm Johnny! I've been in love with animals since I was a wee sprout. As a child I was the boy that would bring home injured animals to nurse, beg for kittens being given away in front of our local supermarket (even though we already had four cats at home) and now I'm friends with all of my neighborhood felines. Cats have always been a strong source of connection and healing for me and I am a proud companion to an all-white, toothless, allergic to everything, spry senior Persian mix named Switch. He keeps me on my toes and reminds me to pet him often and to keep a sense of humor.
While you are away from home I would love the opportunity to care for your furry family with the same love and professionalism as my own. In addition to speaking cat, I am also fluent in dog and love multi-cat and mixed-animal households. I've found pet-sitting to be a good fit for me after working for 5 years as a professional dog walker where I provided structured pack-walks to rescues and dogs with behavioral problems. While I love all cats and dogs both young and old, I have a special place in my heart for those in their "golden years", special needs pets, and those terminally ill. I am proud to offer services in SF, Oakland, and Berkeley. I am queer and leather-friendly and have worked with LGBTQQI+, leather, and disabled communities for over 10 years. I also live a fragrance-free lifestyle and have worked for those with MCS or fragrance/chemical sensitivities. |

I absolutely adore kitties. From their sweetness and purring, to their shenanigans and hilarious personalities, it’s really hard for me to find a cat I can’t immediately fall in love with. Ever since my parents were married, they have always had kitties. That never changed while raising 4 children and moving all over the world with the Army. This love of cats passed to all my siblings and myself, the youngest. I transplanted here to San Francisco from my “home” in Seattle at the end of 2012. While here, I’ve met and married my husband and we’ve had our first son together. Unfortunately, where we live right now we are unable to have pets. Sometimes I’ll even take my son to the SPCA so we can visit with the kitties there, and I can’t wait until we can adopt our own! In my spare time I enjoy traveling to visit family and friends, catching up on great TV and movies, cooking and baking, y practicando mi español! I am so excited to be a part of Kristin’s Kitty Care so I can visit and love and care for your sweet fur babies as if they were my own!

As someone who has lived their entire life both in San Francisco and with cats, I’ve learned to appreciate and respect that no two people, places, or critters are the same. All of my cats have had different personalities and needs, and my job has always been to be as much their friend as their caretaker. My goal is to be reliable, consistent, and gentle so as not to add any unnecessary stress to our furry friends or to their full-time families while they’re away.
