Shraavya

Hi reader!My name is Shraavya and I began to sit for pets on pawshake as a Master student in Gent, Belgium. I am now a PhD student and still love to do the same!

I absolutely adore pets and I'm a big fan of cats! I grew up with a lot of cats and I happen to know a lot about their behaviour and can also basically distinguish between their meows (not kidding, I can tell when they're hungry, needy, sad, scared, or just chatty!).

I grew up in Saudi Arabia with a few cats but would visit India every year where my grandma had nearly 15 cats. I've learnt a lot about pet behavior and how to approach spicy cats when they don't want to talk to you. I've recently become a cat parent myself, to Anastasia, who is a 2 year old European shorthair that has a permanent limp due to an injury that did not heal well. In 2 months, I already taught her to give me a high five ✋🏼 and to tell me when she wants to play (she will sit close to her toys and meow for me to come 😄)

I know what your pet means to you, and I will love your cat as if it were my own. I know the nervousness that comes along when choosing the perfect sitter for your baby, and I know what one small mistake can cost. I'm here to assure that I will never let any harm come to your cat/kitten, and also that I've been longing to show some love to a furry little ball of love.
