Cat obsessed 25 years experience

As a proud mom of two amazing girls and a lifelong cat lover, felines are truly my passion. Over the years, I’ve developed a deep understanding of cat behavior, unique personalities, and the art of building trusting bonds with even the most timid or independent kitties. ​My ultimate dream is to work with cats full-time, and this is my first step toward making that a reality! Because I work part-time, I have plenty of flexibility to give your beloved pets my undivided attention. Whether it’s providing endless cuddles, engaging in playtime, or managing their feeding schedules, your cats will be treated like royalty. I am also fully trained in cat first aid and highly experienced in caring for cats with specific medical needs .

Safety, trust & environment

My main and first priority is keeping the cats safe and happy. When building up trust I take into account the individual cats personalities and thier needs. Some cats take longer to gain thier trust and build a relationship . I create a calm environment and will give the cats a space to feel safe and this should gain thier trust and them we can have lots of playing and cuddle time if they are happy with that. I am fully trained in cat first aid and can card for cats with health conditions.

Cheryl is a phenomenal cat visitor! She is reliable, extremely trustworthy and friendly. She sent videos, photos and information on my cat every day I was away. She clearly enjoys the work she does and I recommend her to anyone worried about leaving their cat(s). Not sure how I'm going to match the love and attention she provided!!

Both of my cats consider Cheryl to be their 2nd favourite person. Eventually, she will probably be their favourite.

Happy to have Cheryl regularly visiting my kitten. Photo updates and great communication shows that she genuinely enjoys spending time with him. Highly recommended!

Couldn’t recommend Cheryl enough. I left for 2 weeks and she took great care of my cat, plus she was also happy to feed my gerbils. She sent me plenty of pictures and videos everyday, and played lots with the cat which she enjoyed a lot. Will definitely rebook!

Cheryl took great care of my cat while I was away. My cat is very shy but she was comfortable with Cheryl and I really appreciated the daily photo and video updates. Very reliable, would book again!

Once again Cheryl has looked after Poppy beautifully despite some difficulties with the house. Lovely updates and photos were very reassuring.
