Highlights
Pet care experience
Kind, relaxed and compassionate
I have had cats for 17 years and love them so much. Unfortunately I can’t live with my cat at the moment as I am renting so he lives with my mum. I really miss spending time with cats. I have lived with older cats who need extra attention and medications as well as kittens who need lots of play time. I have been cat sitting through cat in a flat for about 3 years (I was living in London for most of this) and have had great experiences looking after people’s cats in their homes. I am a nurse for the hospice in exeter and have a great love for all living things.

Safety, trust & environment
If I was to look after your pet in your home I’d make sure to follow your rules and try to follow your pets usual routine. My cat has specific dietary needs so I understand the importance of feeding pets what they normally eat and sticking to their regular diet. I would spend lots of time with the pet, lots of cuddles and playtime, with the occasional treats if allowed.
Ratings and reviews
I was bedbound and completely unable to give my cat, Buddy, the active playtime he needs. Ella came over, pulled out the wand toys, and wore Buddy out with so much fun and energy. She was gentle, reliable, and sent the cutest updates. It gave me total peace of mind to rest and recover knowing Buddy was so well cared for. I highly recommend Ella to anyone looking for a wonderful cat sitter.
Ella was fantastic, extremely helpful and caring! Our cat absolutely loved her and their time together!
Just to say how pleased we were with Ella who looked after Bella for an evening and morning last week. This is the second time Ella has come and we were again impressed with her happy confidence and genuine liking of the cats she visits. Everything was done as it it should be we felt very comfortable with the catsitting arangements. Thank you!
Ella was brilliant. Came round for introductions a few days before and made us feel at ease right away. Gave us daily updates on the cats with photos etc and our girls absolutely loved her. Will definitely be booking Ella in again. Can't recommend enough.
I cannot recommend Ella highly enough! She has been absolutely amazing with my cat. Her professionalism and genuine love for animals are evident in every interaction. My cat, who is usually quite shy, warmed up to her immediately. She sends regular updates and photos giving us peace of mind while away. Very reliable, punctual, and meticulous!
Ella has looked after my three cats and my dog many times and they absolutely adore her! It’s clear she is a real animal lover who looks after the pets as though they are her own. I would not hesitate to recommend her, she is very trustworthy and reliable. Thank you as always, Ella!

Schedule
I work 4 days a week as a hospice nurse. I work 8hr shifts either 8.30-4.30 or 11-7 so I am always home at a decent time to do breakfasts/dinners. When I’m not working I’m often at home, or going for walks or to the beach. I also spend time growing vegetables and flower in my garden.
