Pet care experience

Caring cat-sitter in Cambridge 😽

I adored animals since I was a child, as we had plenty of different pets growing up, mostly indoor cats. For the past 12 years, I am extremely lucky to be the carer of a wonderful tabby, Béchamel, who I spend my afternoons and weekends with (take a look at our profile photos for cat cuteness overdose). When I'm not at home, I am working as a researcher at the University. I have been grateful to care for cats professionally for the past 5 years in Oxford and Cambridge. Experienced with kittens and senior cats.

Safety, trust & environment

As I already have an indoor cat, hosting your cats in my house will not be possible. When I visit your cats in their home, I make sure I spend at least 30 minutes with them. If we are meeting for the first time, I’m happy to drop by your place to meet and make sure the “boss” approves. I can also water plants if asked and care for parcels that are left outside your house.

Nena took such great care of my kitties while i was away! She was very attentive and made sure they were comfortable in the heat. I loved seeing videos of their cute little faces. Would definitely recommend :)

Nena was fantastic and took excellent care of our two cats during the heatwave. She made sure they always had fresh food and water, and kept an eye on the house temperature to ensure they stayed comfortable. She kept us updated after each visit, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, she spent time playing with the cats and giving them attention, so they were happy and relaxed when we came back. We would happily recommend Nena to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter. :)

Nena took great care of my cat Cora, who needed medication. It was a great joy to receive a video and/or picture of my cat from Nena each day and a huge relief to me to know that my cat is so well looked after by Nena when I was away. Thank you, Nena.

Nena took great care of my cat Cora. I am most grateful. I shall definitely ask for Nena's help next time I'm away.

My cat took to Nena the first time they met. Nena sent me a video or a picture of my cat each time she visited. I found this very reassuring, to see my cat well each day was precious put my mind at ease while I’m away. Thank you, Nena!

Nena has looked after our cat several times. She’s reliable, communicative and totally cat-savvy. In addition to this, she has amazing cat video skills! I recommend her wholeheartedly.

The drop-in visits will be around 7-10am and/or 6-9pm depending on your cats’ feeding schedule, and whether I have multiple bookings at the same time.
