Kitty Buddy

"I can’t recommend Alena enough!!!! She is kind, caring, and reliable. She always sends pictures of my cat. When I come home he is happy and content. Most recently, on her final visit this weekend, she noticed our ceiling leaking from the apartment above, their bathroom had flooded. She somehow tracked down the maintenance manager of our building and took the time to alert him and get him on the job immediately. She kept our ceiling from caving in and causing massive damage. Alena is the best."

"Alena is one of the kindest, sweetest, and most reliable people I have met. She started taking our two dogs on walks ever since they were tiny pups and worked with our family for 5 years, right until she moved out of California. She also house sat for us numerous times and started to feel like an extended member of our family over the years. Our pets adore her and whenever we left them with her, we never had to worry. We knew they were well taken care of. She is conscientious, caring, dependable, flexible and a true animal whisperer. Even today, when we say her name in front of our dogs they run to the door to see if she is there. We miss her dearly."

"Alena is the most amazing pet sitter that a pet parent can possibly ask for. She is not only a cat whisperer (and I suspect she would be the same for dogs or any other furry pets!) but also the most conscientious and responsible caretaker of our home. She notices things (about our cats and home) in an instant and handles things to avert possible issues. She loves and takes meticulous care of our furry ones as if they are her own and does the same with our home. Hiring her was the best decision we ever made and we thank our lucky stars to have her in our lives! It has gotten to the point where we check Alena’s availability before planning our getaways! And our cats absolutely LOVE her and would look at us with almost disappointed eyes upon our return as if to say, “Where’s Alena?” As a bonus, she is a very talented photographer, and all the best images of our cats are the ones that she has taken! On a scale of 1 to 10, Alena gets 20!"

"Alena was our cat sitter for many years in Oakland CA and for two separate pairs of cats. Now that Kitty Buddy operations have moved to Washington, furry friends and their guardians in the Bellingham area will appreciate Alena's deep experience, dependability, excellent communication, pro-level photos, and creative ways of delivering quality TLC. Over the years, we learned a lot from Alena and have become better cat dads because of her example. Gosh, I think we have to move to Bellingham now."

"Kitty Buddy 4 President! Kitty Buddy is just THE BEST cat sitting service ever. Alena is not only conscientious, thoughtful, and detail-oriented, but my shy kitties adored her and they had tons of fun together every time I left town. And the icing on the cake is that Alena is not only a fantastic cat photographer, but is also clever and funny, so I always looked forward to her daily cat sitting reports. They always made me chuckle and captured the essence and personalities of the kitties perfectly. It was a huge loss for Bay Area kitties when Alena moved away but it’s a huge WIN for the kitties of Bellingham, who will have the best buddy a kitty could ever ask for ❤️"
