Iona’s “Purfect” Cat Care
Hi, my name is Iona. I’m 26 years old and I live near Stafford. I love looking after animals / pets. I’m insured and have experience with looking after cats. I’ve got one myself, and he’s a Bengal. I used to have two Bengals, but one of them had to be taken to a new home, unfortunately Growing up, I’ve always been surrounded by cats. I’ve admired them for being so cute and liking a good fuss or cuddle 🥹 When I was younger, my family and I adopted a cat that randomly turned up at our house one evening and needed feeding. We saw that she had a missing paw and had a limp. She was always an outdoor cat and never came into the house. As she kept coming back, we kept feeding her and eventually came up with a name for her, which was Trio. When she passed, it was sad to see but we knew she was no longer in pain or struggling. Fast forward a couple of years later, I got my first Bengal in 2015 and my second one in 2018. The one I got in 2018 is a snow leopard one, who I love more than the one I got in 2015 🙈 the snow leopard (called Romeo) is so fussy and vocal!! He loves a good cuddle and will nap with you on your bed. The Bengal I got in 2015 (called Roo) isn’t like Romeo at all. Unfortunately, she’s had some trauma from being hit by a car… she’s quite skittish and runs away when people come over, but she’s friendly. My family and I have realised that my sister is her favourite person as she’s always sleeping in her room 😂 unfortunately, she doesn’t live with me anymore and has had to be taken away to a new home.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
In your home, I’d stick to how you keep your cats safe and give them enough love and attention. I’d make sure they felt secured and safe in their home with someone else (such as myself) looking after them
Ratings and reviews
Iona is wonderful and has taken care of my cats for a total of 2 weeks this month. She kept me updated with photos and times she’s visiting and I felt reassured by her messages. I would recommend her to everyone x
Amazing. Will be using Iona again, definitely! I avoided going away or on any trips whatsoever because I hated leaving the cats. Iona stayed for long periods, my cats really liked her & she even cleaned my home before she left! She followed all instructions & I felt at ease knowing my cats were ok. So grateful & will definitely be using her again!
Iona was great, she provided lots of updates during the sit so I knew the cats were eating OK and everything. Also quick and easy to communicate with beforehand to arrange a time to meet. Would recommend :)
Iona provided a good cat sitting service. we came home to two relaxed and happy cats.
Iona was great. She answered all messages promptly, turned up exactly when she promised. She sent me loads of pictures and updates while I was away. When I came home my kitty was happy and relaxed. I will certainly ask Iona to look after her the next time I go on holiday xx

Schedule
I do a lot of regular volunteer work, but I always make sure to make enough time to look after your cats! I like to make sure my clients’ cats feel happy and comfortable in their home, especially when I’m looking after them
