About

Leslie 

Founder

Hello, I'm Leslie, but you can call me Miss Kitty Poppins! I'm so glad you found me.

I grew up with all kinds of animals but cats are my favorite by far. If you're reading this, I'm sure you agree.

After moving to Menlo Park in 2017, I founded Miss Kitty Poppins with a simple goal: to provide thoughtful, dependable care for cats in the comfort of their own homes. Nearly a decade later, I’ve had the privilege of caring for cats throughout the South Bay, San Francisco, and Silicon Valley. Every household is different. Every cat has its own routines, preferences, and personality. I’ve worked alongside estate managers, personal assistants, and veterinary teams to ensure every detail is thoughtfully carried out, always with complete discretion. 

It's an honor to get to know each individual kitty, and before long they have a brand new nickname all their own (as if you didn't give them a million already). They'll feel safe and loved while you're away.

Outside of cat care—I'm a professional illustrator, a cat mom to Ada, and I love to travel. Observation is at the heart of everything I do. The same attention to detail that shapes my artwork also shapes the way I care for cats. 

I’m fully insured and bonded. I'm also proud to be a member of Pet Sitters Associates and PUPS.

I look forward to meeting you and your kitties!
