Hi, I'm Tatiana and I'm 30. I've had cats all my life but life is feeling empty after moving away from them. I work hybrid, very flexibly in admin at an industry body. 

This means I am able to drop in before work, during my lunch break or after work for a quick scratch and a feed. Alternatively, depending on your needs and my schedule, during work hours for a longer period of time. If I can sit at a table with my laptop for an hour or two I'd love to! Happy to stay for the whole day if you have a comfortable set up. I'm on the edge of Hawthorn / Richmond with a small car so I can go and park anywhere nearby! 

I'm very respectful and neat and tidy, plus organised to a fault. I've pet sit informally for a while, and have been pet sitting regularly for a year! I can interpret most meows and what they mean, and I have boundless patience for your shy ones, and lots of energy for the bouncy ones! I love reading so if I was to spend a few hours with the cat, I'd sit quietly and read or listen to a podcast. I will send multiple pictures and updates when I come and visit (my camera is full of cat photos!) and keep in regular touch while you are away.

I also miss clocking in for my shift at the biscuit factory, which is why I'd love to meet you!
