Hello!! I am Satomi who is Japanese amimal lover livng in Vancouver.
I have been living here in Vancouver for 5 years so Vancouver is becoming my home to me now : )
My animal lover life has stared in my early childhood.
I grew up in a big city in Japan where I heardly see animals or pets on the street.
However I was lucky that I was always surrounded by animals in my childhood.
I used to live in a co-op housing when I was child. At this time, one of the tenat had a dog (male), whose name is Chibi, outside and all of the people lived in the place took care of him. Chibi was a part of this community menmber. I liked Chibi and I used to give him fish treats.
First pet myself was budgerigars. I was in charge of taking care of them and I used to teach them Japanese words.
After few years, later,
I convinced my mother to have a cat (female). Her name is Rui. My family was having busy life at that time so I usually stayed at home and spent most time with her. She was my best friend and also she was like my sister to me.
When I lost her after 18 years, it was hardset time for me.............Since I lost her, I couldn't have myself any pet, but I always look for a cat on the street or visit my friend's place to cuddle with their a dog or cats because I missed having an animal around.
When I moved to Vancouver, I found a place that had a dog and 2 kitties!!! I immediately fell in love with them and decided to live in the place.
Since then, I have been living in the same place with the dog and the cats and also super nice housemates. I am really happy living with them and becoming a part of my family!!!
I really love my housemates' cats sooo much. Then, at some point, the cats became mine?!?!
Last year we got new addition into our place. Now we have chikens sisters!!!
I am really lucky that I am always surrounded by animals but I want to see more :)
I offer daily visits, walks, house sitting ( overnight stay) .
I am happy to visit your place to take care of your pets for at least 30 minutes but of course, I will stay with them longer if they need me!!!
I would describe myself as a cat lover since my experience with cats is more than other animals but of course, I love dogs and other animals too!!!
I am looking forward to seeing your lovely pets!!!
Please ask me if there are any questions!
Satomi is highly recommended! Easy to rebook and was very friendly and patient with special requests! We will rebook again in the future! Zooey was in good hands!
We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Satomi. Our kitty is very shy and rarely comes out from hiding when strangers are around. Satomi was able to coax her out, and they became friends. This is a huge feat! We appreciated Satomi’s communication. She sent daily pictures and updates, and went above and beyond by watering our plants and checking our mailroom for packages. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Satomi to others, and we hope that she will continue to be our kitty’s sitter. Thank you, Satomi!
