Meet Our Team
Our sitters all have years of experience volunteering at shelters, owning cats themselves, and even working with other cat sitting companies. They are all background checked, bonded, and trained by us. They will absolutely deliver the same level of service as the owners deliver. We have never received anything but praise for the wonderful sitters on our staff.

Cats have always had a special place in Emily’s heart that stemmed from growing up with them, working with them at an animal shelter and cat sitting, and finding her own furry soulmate after moving to Portland from NYC. Emily finds forming special bonds with different cats to be so rewarding and making them feel appreciated and loved is a priority for her. Her calming energy makes them feel comfortable.

She has fostered cats/kittens from the humane society and taken in strays throughout her life. They are in her art, in her writing, and on her clothes. They are everywhere.

She loves meeting new cats and hopes to meet yours sometime soon.
Nadia
she/her
Nadia has had at least 5 cats by her side since day one. When her parents brought home her first cat Tigger, a side-of -the road rescue, he immediately bit her tiny hand and commenced a ferocious and painful bunny kick. It was love at first sight. In her youth, Nadia cared for many local cats while their families vacationed, learning to handle medically fragile cats and those with high needs. As an adult, she fostered pregnant kitties and volunteered with a local rescue in LA. In 2014, Nadia landed in Portland, OR where she met her husband and combined animal families. Currently, they have five cats, three dogs, one pig, and a toddler. You can often find all of them sharing the same king sized bed and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Andrea

Andrea works behind the scenes remotely from her home in Oregon supporting all of the sitters and clients by ensuring that business systems run smoothly. As a life-long lover of animals and problem solving, this role was a perfect fit. When not focused on Precious Fur, she works as a voice actor, volunteers in the community and enjoys adventures with her partner and two children.
