Highlights
Pet care experience
Keeping cats cosy at home
Experienced rescue cat owner with four rescue cats of my own and several years volunteering within cat charities. I’ve fostered cats of all ages and temperaments, including nervous and vulnerable cats, and also worked as a rehoming coordinator, so I understand the importance of patience, routine and meeting each cat’s individual needs. As a teacher, I’m DBS checked, responsible, organised and reliable. I’m a dedicated animal lover who will always provide regular updates, photos and excellent care. I also run Cosy Cats. https://www.facebook.com/share/1995raTszx/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Safety, trust & environment
I only provide care in the pet owner’s home, as I find most cats are happiest and least stressed staying in their own familiar environment and routine. I always take time to understand each cat’s individual personality, needs and routine — whether they are confident, shy, elderly, playful or nervous. I have experience with rescue cats and understand the importance of patience, calm handling and respecting boundaries, especially for anxious cats. During visits I ensure cats have fresh food and water, clean litter trays, enrichment, affection (on their terms!) and a safe, calm environment. I’m reliable, responsible and very security conscious in clients’ homes, making sure doors, windows and feeding routines are carefully checked each visit. I would be happy to do any little extras required. I also provide regular photo and message updates so owners can feel reassured while they’re away. I know firsthand how much of a difference this makes!
Ratings and reviews
Jessica did a fantastic job of looking after my two cats this weekend. She arranged a proper handover before we left and kept us updated throughout our trip - it was so nice to receive pictures and videos of our cats looking happy. This was my first time using a cat sitter and I really feel Jessica went above and beyond; I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and we have already booked again for our next trip.
Amazing communication & gave a lot of love and care to our cats! Super grateful & would 100% book Jessica again
Jessica was great with my cat! She responded quickly to my initial message, was contactable, and messaged in advance to check she had a handover - very reliable. Jessica also had a great demeanor with my cat, understanding his personality and adapting her approach accordingly. She spent time with him and sent photos and videos. Overall I would definitely trust her with looking after my cat again and would reccommend her to others.
Jess took care of our two cats, Kitty and Loki (one of whom is a rescue), and I can’t say enough good things about her. She always kept us in the loop about our fur babies and made us feel so comfortable. Her understanding of cat health, behaviour and needs was truly exceptional. Since she volunteers with rescues in her free time, she was able to connect with our rescue and we came home to two very happy cats, which is quite a feat. We would definitely use her again or recommend her to anyone. Thank you Jess!
Jess is one of the most caring and passionate animal lovers I know. Her commitment to animal welfare is genuine and goes far beyond words. She volunteers with animal rescue charities, has rescued four cats of her own, and has fostered both cats and dogs to support animals and families in crisis. She has amazing attention to detail, and her years of experience caring for rescue animals mean she is extremely attentive to every individual need. She is patient, kind, reliable and completely devoted to making animals feel safe, loved and well cared for. I cannot think of anyone better suited to be a pet sitter.

Schedule
As I work full time as a teacher, I currently offer evening visits during weekdays and have wide availability across most weekends. I’m also fully available during school holidays, which works particularly well for owners travelling during half terms and summer breaks. I always make sure I only take on bookings I can fully commit to, so every cat receives reliable, attentive care and plenty of updates while their owner is away. I am also more than happy to be flexible to try and accommodate your plans.
