Highlights
Pet care experience
Gentle, patient pet care/walker
😺Hello :) My name is Miya. I love animals and truly understand that pets are not just animals, they are family. That’s why I always provide loving and attentive care, treating every pet as if they were my own. I currently live with my 10 year old Norwegian Forest cat 🐈 Momo. She came to me when she was 8 months old, and I’ve cared for her ever since. When I first got her, she was shy and preferred a calm environment, so it took patience to earn her trust. Now she is affectionate and loves being close to me. Because of this experience, I am especially comfortable and patient caring for shy, timid, or cautious cats, always respecting their pace and personality. I have years of experience caring for cats with different routines, temperaments, and needs. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while their owners are away. I work from home running a leathercraft studio, where I also share videos on YouTube, often with Momo by my side. I’m used to calm environments and attentive routines, something many cats appreciate. I live in Chertsey and have a very flexible schedule. During each visit, I will send photo and video updates, along with a message when I arrive and leave, so you always know how your pet is doing 🤝🏻 I’m happy to answer any questions you may have, and I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! 😸🐶

Safety, trust & environment
When visiting a pet owner’s home, I always prioritise safety, trust, and respect for both the pet and the space. I understand that trust is essential when allowing someone into your home, and I treat every home with the same care and respect as my own. I carefully follow all instructions provided, including feeding routines, portion sizes, and any specific care requirements. I make sure doors and windows are secure at all times to prevent any escape risks. I also keep the environment clean by maintaining litter boxes and feeding areas, and I always double check everything before leaving. During each visit, I take time to observe your pet’s behaviour, appetite, and overall condition. I know how important it is to feel reassured while you’re away, so I provide regular updates and photos/videos after each visit. If I notice anything unusual, I will inform you promptly so you’re always kept in the loop.
Ratings and reviews
Miya was absolutely amazing, from the point of booking/arranging dates, right up to us returning home to the cats. She sent detailed updates every day, loads of photos and videos, and clearly enjoyed spending time with our cats We cannot thank her enough and would only ever use her if/when we travel again in future. Thanks again Miya! You are amazing 🙂
Miya was an absolute star, so lovely and caring and looked after our cat Lila impeccably, she communicated with us every day and send photos and videos. We had such peace of mind and couldn’t be happier and will definitely book Miya again.
Miya looked after the cats well, kept me updated with videos and photos while I was away. Came back to happy cats, would recommend.
Miya was wonderful. She looked after our elderly cat for 5 days. She was very kind and spent time fussing her when she came to fed her. We would receive photos and videos of our cat which was very reassuring. We will definitely book her again!
This was our first time using a cat sitter, and Miya was perfect! She was patient, caring and very professional. We will definitely try to use her services again next time we are away! Highly recommend.
I could not say enough good stuff about Mia, she was incredibly kind and patient with Lady and managed to give her her meds every day. I would highly recommend Mia to anyone!

Schedule
Pet care is an important part of my routine. I plan my day to ensure I can visit on time, provide proper care, and spend quality time with each pet. I always take time to observe their behaviour and wellbeing, and I will inform you promptly if I notice anything unusual.
- Cats0 to 7 kg7 to 18 kg18 to 45 kgMiya can host up to 10 drop-ins per day
- I’m happy to follow detailed instructions to make sure everything stays consistent with your pet’s usual routine. Before starting, I like to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific care needs. This includes feeding schedule, portion sizes, litter preferences, and any medical requirements. It’s also helpful to know about their behaviour, such as whether they are shy, active, or have any habits I should be aware of. I also ask about any safety concerns, such as escape risks or areas they should not access. This helps me provide the best possible care and ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable.
