About Kristi
CLICK 'Read More' to view my profile information.


** Parts of Kangaroo Point and East Brisbane are the only areas which I service. When sending your query please mention your street name.

As of 2022, I no longer take on clients with unsupervised, outdoor/free-roaming cats or with brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds, Manx or Munchkin/dwarf/teacup breeds (unless adopted from a rescue organisation).

* One daily home visit - choose your time, depending on availability (1 pet $41, 2 pets $46, 3 pets $51, 4 pets $56 + Mad Paws booking fee).
* Two daily home visits - AM/PM, AM/midday or midday/PM (1 pet $61, 2 pets $67, 3 pets $73, 4 pets $79 + Mad Paws booking fee).
* Three daily home visits - AM/midday/PM (1 pet $91, 2 pets $98, 3 pets $105, 4 pets $112 + Mad Paws booking fee).
* Housesitting (per night) - ~24 hours (1 pet $109, 2 pets $117, 3 pets $125, 4 pets $133 + Mad Paws booking fee).

Visits are a minimum of 45 minutes for the first cat, then an extra 15 minutes per extra cat (eg. 2 cats 1 hour visits, 3 cats 1 hour 15 minutes visits, 4 cats 1 hour 30 minutes visits).
*All requests for shorter/quicker visits will be declined (only exception would be for some pets like fish, etc.).
Cats need some human affection/attention everyday. It is not enough to just have your cat sitter refresh food/water/litter and leave without any play time.

Housesitting service is available while you are away overnight (at any age), however, this is the only service I offer for your overnight trips while kittens are younger than six months old.

# I do NOT provide non-consecutive day visits for cats if you will be away overnight. Minimum once daily visits required for human interaction, even if they have automated food/water/litter #

RECOMMENDATIONS:
Solo kitten
-- Up to 4 months: No alone overnight - 3 visits recommended during workday (every ~2 hours, eg. 9:45am/12:30pm/3:15pm).
-- 4-6 months: No alone overnight - 2 visits recommended during workday (every ~3.5 hours, eg. 10:30am/2:45pm).
-- 6-18 months: Alone overnight - 3 visits recommended (every ~5.25 hours, eg. 6am/12pm/6pm).

Kitten with cat sibling/s over 18 months
-- Up to 4 months: No alone overnight - 2 visits recommended during workday (every ~3.5 hours, eg. ~10:30am/2:45pm).
-- 4-6 months: No alone overnight - 1 visit recommended during workday (about halfway).
-- 6-18 months: Alone overnight - 3 visits recommended if you normally work from home (WFH) or 2 visits recommended if you normally work outside the home.

Solo cat
-- Over 18 months: Alone overnight - 3 visits recommended if you normally WFH or 2 visits recommended if you normally work outside the home.

Multiple cats
-- Over 18 months: Alone overnight - 2 visits recommended if you normally WFH or 1 visit recommended if you normally work outside the home.

-- Small pets requiring less/no contact/play time: 1 visit recommended.

- If a combination of one/two/three daily visits are required please detail your requirements in your message and I can reply with an exact quote. If after a meet and greet the booking will be going ahead I will adjust the total manually.

Included tasks: food/water/litter refresh, brush, play, wheelie bins kerbside on bin night, bring in bin/mail, etc.

Whatever your requirements, please don't hesitate to send me any queries as I would be glad to answer you as soon as possible.

Feel free to ask to view my driver licence (automatic only) or National Police Check results at the meet and greet - I won't be offended - you should trust your pet sitter!

I just adore animals and love to see their individual personalities shine through. It is my aim to excel at getting to know each of their needs so that they can be precisely catered to - whether it be food, exercise, medical, attention/leisure or in any other aspect of their lives.

I understand that every pet has different needs. Some cannot get enough interaction meanwhile the same amount of attention may be far too much for another.
Plenty of pets seem to just like knowing that someone is close by.

Once again Kristi was amazing. By far my, but most importantly my boys, absolute favourite car sitter!

Kristi stayed at our place for 5 days to look after our burmese cat Wasabi, and I cannot recommend her enough! She took such great care of Wasabi, gave her lots of love and care and plenty of playtime. Wasabi needed eye drops twice daily which Kristi happily gave to her (which is no easy feat). We received regular updates and were so pleased to see Wasabi looking happy and loved. Thank you Kristi!
