Friendly Cat Crazy Lady

I’ve had cats my whole life, I think I might even like them more than people! We currently have 3 & I’m a sucker for a stray ☺️. Since I left home as a teenager there’s never been a time when we haven’t had at least 1 cat, I would have 10 if I was allowed 😂 While I can't watch dogs unfortunately due to allergies, alongside cats I can look after any small animals (reptiles / rodents / rabbits etc). We have a group of 4 rats at home - who provide endless entertainment! I'm more than a pet sitter, I'll treat them like my own keeping them fed, healthy, clean & entertained. I'll also pop any bins out for bin day & if you have any requests such as switching lights on/off, closing/opening blinds or even getting bread & milk for your return just let me know and I'll be happy to help 😁 I'm able to offer boarding but only for pets that need smaller enclosures, so nothing bigger that rat(ish) size. They will obviously be housed in an area our cats don't have access to, to limit stress. Please message with any queries, I'm very flexible 🙂

Safety, trust & environment

I am very flexible with visit times & days, I can offer lots of fuss or I can try to be invisible if you have cats like mine who get huffy when we go away. Happy to do all aspects of day to day cat care plus more & treat them like my own 💜

As always, Alison is wonderful. She does an amazing job of looking after our Gowdie while we're away. It has been a very difficult time for us lately as I have been very unwell, but knowing we had Alison popping in to make sure Gowdie was looked after, made it less of a worry for me. I have been a bit stressed out with everything and having Alison there for help and support has been just amazing. She goes above and beyond to make sure Gowdie is cared for in her own home. Thank you so much Alison. I don't know what I'd do without you now, probably neither can Gowdie, even though she is a mare!

This is the first time that Alison has looked after our Maine Coon, Gowdie. We had a friend staying at ours previously but she had to give up due to personal matters. I found Alison when I googled home cat sitters as I didn't want to put Gowdie in kennels as she's never been in. Alison called me and then came to visit us to meet us and Gowdie. It was a daunting prospect letting a stranger into our home, but we needn't have worried. Alison quickly put us at ease. We organised the key collection a couple of days before Alison's first visit. Gowdie was a bit stand offish when Alison first came in but on the 2nd day, she started to thaw out. Alison fed, watered her and cleaned out Gowdie's litter tray. I got daily updates and videos of her visits, which put our minds at rest. Alison left everything clean and tidy and opened/closed our curtains and switched lights on/off as well. Absolutely great service and will definitely be using Alison again next year when we go away again. She's an absolute star and is very friendly and helpful. It's great to know our home and our cat are being well cared for. Thank you Alison. See you soon. X

Alison was absolutely brilliant, she came to pick up the key at our convenience and I immediately felt at ease leaving Ace in her care. He must have felt the same as he was happy to have belly rubs! Everything was left clean & tidy and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

Alison was a great cat sitter. She kept me up to date with how they were getting on with their little report cards and photos. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alison, I felt secure that they were well looked after and Alison truly cared.

Alison met Sombra ( my almost well behaved cat 🙂 ) a few days before Alsion was left in charge 🙂. What a lovely warm welcome and I was so pleased to leave her in charge. Alison took on board everything I said and Sombra ( the almost well behaved house cat ) really enjoyed Alisons visits. I was kept up to date on all her cheeky antics and was sent daily updates which included photos/videos and a care log. I know for sure Sombra (my wee silly cat) would love to see Aloson again - once I'm away on my adventures again 🙂 - Thankyou so much Alison, you really looked afyer my princess well. P.s - I'm sure she misses you more than me 💕💕
