Hi, I’m Jenney – a lifelong cat lover and caregiver offering a safe, loving, and exclusive home-away-from-home for your feline & small animal family members in Walnut Creek.

Welcome to Walnut Creek’s Premium Cat & Small Animal-Only Boarding Experience

As a cat parent myself, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your beloved kitty in someone else’s care. That’s why I offer private, single-household boarding in a cozy, calm, and cat-focused environment, free of dogs or other unfamiliar animals.

What Makes Cuddles Not Cages Unique?

 

🐾 Cat and Small Animal-Only, One-Household-per-space Boarding

Your cat(s) or small animal(s) will enjoy their own spacious, private room with a large window, plenty of toys, bird-watching opportunities, cozy spots to lounge, and personalized care.

 

🐾 Peaceful Home Atmosphere

I’ve designed the space to feel just like home, with lots of love, places to hide and jump, soft beds, treats, sunbeams, and affection.

 

🐾 Deep Cleaning Between Guests

To keep the space safe, calm, and scent-neutral for every visitor, I deep clean and sanitize between stays using REScue brand veterinary disinfectant, steam, and freshly laundered bedding.

🐾 1:1 Attention

I have a flexible schedule, so your kitty gets plenty of time, play, cuddles, and supervision.

 

🐾 Photo & Video Updates

I know how hard it is to be away. That’s why I send frequent photo and video updates!

How it Works

Booking a stay is simple—and designed with your cat’s comfort in mind.

Check Availability

Reach out with your desired dates and I’ll confirm if I have space for your cat(s). Minimum stay is 3 days.

Fill Out the Reservation Form

You’ll complete a short form about your cat’s habits, preferences, health, and routine so I can get to know them and provide personalized care.

Let's Chat

Have questions? I’m happy to chat via message, phone, or video call—and I can provide references or a virtual tour upon request.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

I’ve been devoted to feline care for over 25 years, including caring for six of my own beloved cats over the years. Since launching my boarding service in 2020, I’ve had the joy of caring for hundreds of cats across all temperaments. My experience also includes:

🐾 Volunteering at Joybound (formerly ARF), Cat Town, and the SPCA
🐾 Working at The Cat Hospital in Campbell
🐾 Fostering feral and shy cats into loving companions

I specialize in reading feline body language and creating a space where your cat can thrive. Whether they need extra space, a place to hide, pets, or play, I adapt to their needs and make sure they feel safe and loved.
