Cat carer Shoreham and Southwick

Cat care experience

I have always loved cats and being an older person have many years of experience caring for them. I have owned my own cats and also fostered , checked homes and transported cats from Egyptian rescues. Now semi-retired I am working as a cat carer and have been doing drop in visits for the last two years. Merlin, my cat who is in the photo, loves to come up on me for a cuddle. If cats want to be up on my knee that's fine. Otherwise I go with what the cat wants whether it's playing with toys, sitting near me or just keeping their distance. Visits are an hour long. If you want a longer visit please ask. I do food, clean cat plates, put fresh water, attend to the litter tray. If you need plants watered or post brought in, blinds drawn or lights on and off I will follow your instructions. Happy to give vet prescribed medications. I always keep in touch messaging you when I arrive and when I leave plus sending photos of the cat unless you do not want me to so you will have peace of mind when you are away from your cat.

Mary spends plenty of quality time with our cat and sends us some great photos and videos. Our cat obviously likes her company and it's very reassuring that she is so well looked after when we are away

This is the first time we used this service and Mary was very good so will be very happy to use again. Mary was very pleasant and communication before, during and after was excellent - many thanks Mary.

Mary is lovely, patient with our shy girl and friendly with our exuberant boy. Her photos and updates provide reassurance whilst we are away and we return home to happy cats.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
