Pet care experience

Reliable cat carer

I have the time as now retired to spend quality time with your pets, no rushing in and out. i have had cats all my life. I now only have four of my own,, and this year adopted a cat with health problems and also a new kitten I recently hand reared. I have volunteered for 20 years plus and fostered cats for a cat rescues, carrying out home checks etc too and fundraise for them, I am home checked by them also have completed all courses, covering welfare, feeding, care etc. I give excellent cuddles, and attention when visiting cats and will spend time ensuring they are happy and not missing their humans too much. I give the cats space to get to know me if they are shy and have experience with all cats from kittens to the golden oldies as well as many breeds. I am used to shy cats and can easily give medication as needed. I have also held a DBS for many years having worked with children. Until I retired early in 2023, now I am no longer working, I can spend quality time with your precious pets, and not at all hurried. I respect people's property and security, looking after your home too keeping everything spotless. Litter trays are cleaned out at every visit, bowls washed,bins emptied.. I return keys promptly and always pop in to meet you and your cat before, to see where everything is kept... before I look after your furbaby. If over Xmas they get prezzies too. I too have my own Insurance too.

Great experience with Lynda, and it's not the first time. She is the best—such a lovely person, and she always takes excellent care of our cats. It's clear how much she cares about animals, and we can relax knowing they're in safe hands. Our cats are always well looked after, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

This was out first time using a cat sitter and I wasn’t sure if it would work out ok but Lynda was great. She visited twice a day and our 2 cats seemed really happy . We got regular updates . And Lynda watered the garden . Much less stressful for all than taking them to a Cattery. I fully recommend Lynda

Linda was wonderful with our two cats. She managed their medication and special food instructions perfectly, and the photo updates made us feel so at ease. It’s clear she genuinely cares. We’re very thankful for everything she did and would happily recommend her to others.
