Safety, trust & environment

I have a room in my home that was previously for fosters. It is well stocked with toys/scratchers and things for your cat to do. There is a window that they will enjoy watching birds from. I prefer to keep them separate as I believe it is safer and they will feel more comfortable when in a new environment to have a space that is completely their own.

Information Alexandra W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know as much as you can about your cat so I can make them as comfortable as possible including: - are they fully vaccinated - any special needs or requirements or behaviours I need to account for - likes and dislikes - if your cat gets on with other cats - are they up to date with flea and worming treatments

A typical day

I visit the guest room regularly and am happy to do whatever your cat wants to do, I am happy to spend time cuddling or playing with your cat. I will only take pets from one family at a time so they get my full attention.

Pet care experience

I am an experienced cat owner and absolutely adore cats-mine are my pride and joy! I have two tuxies, a 7 y/o called Meg and a 5 y/o called Flick. I have fostered cats for a local rescue and have experience with cats with a variety of personalities and some with special requirements. I have owned and loved animals all my life including, dogs, cats, rabbits, Guinea pigs and mice. Having grown up with pets all my life, I would not be without them. I will love and care for yours as though they were my own whilst they're in my care. I understand that it can be difficult to leave a member of your family so I am happy to meet before hand and you're more then welcome to view the space in which your kitty will be staying.

I was really apprehensive about leaving my fur baby when I went away as was the first time however I needn't have been, Ally took such good care of Cookie for the week. I received lots of pictures and videos with updates on how her week was going which was so good and put my mind at rest. Would definitely recommend Ally and will be booking with her for the future when we go away again. Thanks again Ally

Alexandra was wonderful! Riley stayed with her for 3 weeks and I got updates with pictures regularly. He actually looked so content there I was getting worried he might not want to come back 😂🩷 Would definitely choose her again if I needed a cat sitter!

Thank you Ally for looking after Chloe for a Couple of days. Chloe doesn't like strangers much or loud noise and usually goes into hiding but Allys patient and calm approach meant she did not hide and watched Ally from a distance which is brilliant in a short space of time. Really Pleased.

Alexandra was great! I was on edge about leaving one chaotic boy, one grain free girl and one fussy girl with someone new, but there was no need to worry at all. The photos I was sent were great and very reassuring, and nothing was too much trouble. We came home to 3 happy cats, will definitely use again
