Pet care experience

Your cats new best friend!

I’ve been around cats my whole life and currently share my home with three friendly felines. Living with multiple cats has given me a strong understanding of how individual their personalities and social dynamics can be. From confident, playful characters to more reserved or senior cats who value their space, I adapt my approach to suit each cat’s needs. I respect boundaries and never force interaction. Some cats seek attention immediately, while others prefer quiet company and gentle reassurance - and I’m comfortable with both. I pay close attention to body language and subtle behavioural cues to ensure every interaction happens on the cat’s terms, creating a calm and stress-free environment. You can feel confident that your cat will be treated with patience, attentiveness and genuine care — as if they were my own.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I offer reliable pet sitting services where I visit your home, so your beloved pet can stay in their familiar and comfortable environment. Along with feeding and cleaning up after them, I’ll make sure they get plenty of cuddles, company, and playtime if needed. For your peace of mind, I’m also happy to water plants, take out the rubbish bins, and open or close blinds and curtains to give your home a lived-in look while you’re away. I'm DBS checked and hold a pet first aid certificate, so you can feel confident your pet and home are in safe hands. Note: To make sure all pets stay happy and healthy, I kindly ask that they are kept up to date with flea treatment before any sitting. This helps protect your pet, my own cats, and other households I care for.

Michelle was so good with my boys, and I was able to have a relaxing holiday knowing I had someone trustworthy looking after my cats. I got lovely photos every day so I could see my cats and I could be confident that they were doing fine. Everything in the house was tidy, and the cats were happy and not stressed out when we got home - I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitting experience!

Michelle provided a great cat sitting services and was very responsive to any requests both before I left and while on holiday. I will definitely look to book her the next time I go away.

Michelle was very friendly, professional and helpful. This was our first time working with her and we were nervous about how our usually very timid cat would take to a new sitter. However, Michelle made friends with him from the get go and everything went perfectly smoothly! We would recommend Michelle for any and all pet sitting needs in a heartbeat!

Michelle was absolutely fantastic with both of our kitties while we were away for our wedding. She took such great care of them that we’ve already booked her again to look after them during our honeymoon! She respected our home, spent quality time playing with the cats, and sent us daily updates with plenty of photos of our babies, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Before we left, Michelle came to meet us, visit the house, and get to know both cats. She has such a calm, reassuring presence that they both felt comfortable approaching her straight away, which really put our minds at ease. We can already tell they’re excited to see her again! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional cat sitter. She truly went above and beyond, and we’re so grateful for everything she did.

Schedule

I currently work remotely from home, which gives me some flexibility with my schedule. I can visit your pet in the mornings before my workday starts at 8:30am, after work, and - if needed - around noon to ensure they’re happy and well cared for. Please note that midday visits are only available in the Lostock Hall area.

Cats
Michelle Cathrine can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
It’s really important for me to know as much as possible about your pet in advance so I can provide the best care. Every animal has its own personality, habits, and needs such as it’s special dietary requirements, medical conditions, favourite toys, routines, or things they’re afraid of. The more I know upfront, the more smoothly things will go, and the more comfortable and safe your pet will feel in my care. During our initial meet and greet, I’ll do my best to learn everything I need to know about your pet and your home, but I also really appreciate it when clients leave a little “handbook” or written guide with key information. It’s super helpful for making sure I don’t miss anything while you’re away.
