Carol's Reliable Cat sitting!
Hi. My name is Carol and I am a retired teacher who loves cats. I have looked after cats and kittens from childhood and have an enhanced DBS, am trustworthy, reliable and well organised so will never let you down. I don't currently own a cat since one of my household is allergic to them so I am making up that big gap in my life by looking after those of others as you can see from my profile photo. I have loved cats since birth when my cat Tortie used to climb into my cot and pad up and down, rubbing her face against mine and purring. I have had lots of experience in looking after cats of all ages from newly born kittens to elderly felines which you can see if you would like to read on. My last cat Freddie was an Old Siamese, statuesque, handsome and affectionate. I looked after him from a kitten until he was twenty years old and we were so close! I also had Sugar who was a white British Shorthair. She had a lovely litter of kittens who we had to bottle feed night and day every two to three hours until they grew to be strong, healthy kittens. They even starred in a TV advert for cat litter! I have also had two other moggy cats - one was a rescue cat and with patience she became calm and began to trust people again.It's an honour to take care of these lovely animals and I love their intelligent, independent yet affectionate personalities!

Safety, trust & environment
I am trustworthy and reliable, always ensuring your cat/s are happy and well cared for. I give them lots of attention and play with them to build up their trust and make sure their litter trays and bowls are frequently cleaned and refilled as needed. Additionally, I will treat your home with respect and can use my initiative while you are away such as watering a plant that needs attention or putting out the bins on collection day for you. I've even taken a grocery delivery and unpacked it for one of my clients. 😊
Ratings and reviews
Carol was brilliant. She gave me really good updates, played with my cats a lot (my cat likes attention) and left my place nice and clean. Thanks!!
Carol did a great job looking after our boys while we were away. They warmed up to her very quickly and she sent us lots of videos and photo updates. We will definitely be asking for her help in the future!
Great care given to my elderly cat and he even played with the mice on a string.☺️ Very reliable and attentive with any special requirements that older cats may need.
Carol was amazing ! Great communication and making me feel reasured when worrying about my fury friend. I would recommend Carol and given 5* !
Carol was amazing – she updated us twice daily along with photos and videos of the kittens. They were obviously also very big fans of her! She played games and gave cuddles as well as feeding, letting them out (and getting back in!) and sorting litter trays. Carol was respectful of our property and helpful - bring in empty bins and a couple of parcels. I would highly recommend her and definitely use again.
Carol has been fabulous. Very professional, considerate and reassuring. She has ensured my kittens got lots of play time and affection as well as seeing to their food and water and litter trays as needed. I love the photos and videos she has sent me.
