Attentive Pet & House Sitter 🐾

🌟 Hi, I’m Lindsay! I provide calm, attentive care for a range of pets, including seniors, playful puppies, shy pets, and those with medical needs. I work remotely and am home for most of the day during house sits, so pets aren’t left alone for long periods. This works well for pets who enjoy steady companionship, especially during longer stays. You’ll receive regular photo updates each day, so you can feel confident your pet is in great hands. My priority is simple: you return to a happy pet and a well-kept home. 🏡 HOUSE SITTING. I provide consistent presence so your pet can follow their normal routine in a relaxed and familiar way, whether you’re away for a weekend or a longer trip. My house sitting includes: 📸 Photo updates throughout the day 🐕 Daily walks following your pet’s routine 🧸 Playtime, enrichment & snuggles 🍽️ Food, water, potty breaks & litter care 💊 Medicine administration 📬 Mail, bins & plant care 🔐 Securely locking doors & windows 💤 Overnight stay, including sleeping nearby your pet if preferred 🕰️ Meet & greet: In-person or virtual to understand your pet’s unique needs 🏡 DROP-IN VISITS. My drop-in visits are focused, unrushed, and tailored to your pet. They include: 🎴 A Rover Card with timestamps and notes 📸 Plenty of photo updates 🧸 Playtime, enrichment & snuggles 🍽️ Food, water, potty breaks & litter care 💊 Medicine administration 📬 Mail, bins & plant care 🔐 Securely locking doors & windows 🕰️ Meet & greet: In-person or virtual to understand your pet’s unique needs 🐾 DOG/CAT WALKING. My walking service includes everything listed in drop-in visits, plus a structured walk tailored to your pet’s pace and energy level: 🗺️ Rover Card with a GPS map for walks 🐱 If you'd like your cat walked, simply book a drop-in visit and I’ll include it 💖 My late cat Cletus was my best friend, and I treat every pet with the same love and respect. Cletus was an unusually extroverted cat who thought he was a dog: he loved walking on a leash and charming everyone he met at the park. After he passed away from congenital kidney disease, I found joy in caring for other pets and sharing the cuddles and park walks he loved. Your pet’s comfort, happiness, and safety will always be my top priority.

I couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Lindsay! She was so lovely and patient with my crispy cat 😂 The daily videos kept me updated and happy that he was being so well cared for. Lindsay was so thoughtful and would happily entertain my cat during her visits. She was reliable and professional, I trusted her completely. I would love to use her services again for my next trip. Thank you! 🤗

Lindsay was absolutely amazing looking after our pack (2 young cats with a lot of energy and 1 senior siberian husky with additional care needs). But none of these was an issue for Lindsay and she handled them all so perfectly and treated them like her own. I think our fur babies was sad when we came home off our holidays and missed Lindsay haha! It was so reassuring getting daily updates while we was away and meant we could truly relax and enjoy our time away. When we came back the house was spotless and Lindsay had even stripped and washed the bedding. Was such a lovely touch. She went above and beyond and we can't recommend her enough. Would give her 10 stars if we could! Thank you so much and we look forward to having you back in the future ❤️

House Sitting • Jul 30, 2026

We went on a family vacation and this was our first time hiring a cat sitter. I was absolutely terrified of leaving my four elderly babies on their own. If you’re feeling that same nervousness, Lindsay is quite literally the gold standard of cat sitters! One of our cats, Socrates, is an extremely nervous boy who suffers from separation anxiety and needs medication every 8 hours for a heart condition. Well, I think that he’s now had a taste of the good life with Lindsay! We came back to a relaxed, happy, healthy and very pleased cat. Lindsay administered every medication dose on time and without any issues. She sent updates every single day documenting each dose, alongside lovely photos and videos of all the cats. Lindsay also faithfully kept up Socrates’ strictly supervised grass time. This is something he needs several times a day for his wellbeing (it calms the stress from his thyroid condition), and which requires staying with him the entire time and bringing him safely back indoors afterwards. Lindsay never once cut corners, ensuring every complex instruction was followed to absolute perfection. Her communication was truly outstanding and hugely reassuring while we were away! Just before we left, we were also hit with a stressful emergency. During the chaos of our family moving things out of the house, a family member left the door open and one of our cats, Drake, got out. We didn’t realise how serious this was until he couldn’t be located. This was entirely our fault, and Lindsay’s response is the single biggest reason I urge everyone to book her. She sprang into action and knew exactly what to do: contacting rescue centres, our pet insurer, and the neighbours, and organising posters and flyers. I was a nervous wreck, and having her calm, capable guidance made all the difference. I’m truly so eternally grateful!! I genuinely wouldn’t have known where to start on my own. Drake has since been safely found, and we could not have done it without her! Beyond her exceptional crisis management, Lindsay’s small, thoughtful touches showed her deep love for animals. We noticed she put on gentle piano music for the cats to help them relax. It was so heartwarming to find them all snuggled up and napping in such a peaceful environment! She absolutely went above and beyond! Our four cats each have unique, complex routines: three are strictly indoor (with Socrates needing timed heart medication and grass time), and one (Casper) is allowed outdoor access. Lindsay stuck to every single routine perfectly. She also looked after our home beautifully, and simply made us feel our cats were in the safest possible hands. Trusting someone with your elderly pets is terrifying, but we feel unbelievably lucky to have found Lindsay. I genuinely feel more at ease about going on vacations now as we would rebook Lindsay immediately. She is an exceptional communicator and a truly experienced, calm, capable cat sitter. You will not regret booking her!!

Lindsay is a fantastic sitter, 5stars is not enough. Took loads of time on the pre visit to built trust with my cat and took extensive notes on all our routines. Great coms throughout and flexible with all my last min changes. Lindsay would send a video montage every day of Nova and it's obvious that my cat was being really well looked after and loved. Excellent service, couldn't ask for more.

When looking for someone to check in your pet, Lindsay is the perfect person. She is professional and friendly and took the time to get to know my beloved cat Malcolm before the visits began. He is not the biggest fan of strangers but seemed to take to Lindsay straight away. On our ten day trip away, Lindsay sent lots of photos and videos and updates. This was so reassuring and it was clear our boy was being looked after with love and care. We enjoyed our holiday all the more as we didn't need to worry about Malcolm's welfare. We arrived back today to a very happy little cat, well fed and with a lovely clean litter tray.Thankyou so much Lindsay! You are a star :)
