Highlights
Pet care experience
Call me the crazy cat lady :P
Hello all :) I have had years of experience with cats. Ranging from my own in the past, to those of friends and family. I am always the person that people can rely on to look after their "fur babies". I have no allergies and I can drive. I am fairly flexible. As mentioned in my profile I do work full time but I get a decent amount of annual leave so typically around 1 week of the month I have off work and can dedicate this time to pet sitting. My experience with cats in a bit more detail: When I was younger I had my own 3 cats. 2 girls (Missy and Zelda) and 1 boy (Simba). Both the girls got pregnant a few times each and so I have experience with newborn kittens, right the way up to a cat aged over 12 years old! My mothers cat is one of the litter of kittens that my cats had. I regularly drop in on her to feed her or help my stepdad change her litter tray. She loves nothing more than sitting on my lap and clicking my jeans/leggings with her little "biscuits" and purring away. In May 2026 I looked after a lovely ginger male indoor cat called Max - this was for my friend whos co-worker went on holiday and my friend had originally agreed to look after Max but she has accidently double booked herself with looking after her brothers dog. So Max came to live with me for the week in my own home. It was so lovely seeing him come out of his shell and being comfortable enough to sit on my lap and let me pet him. In June 2026 I stayed at another friends house for the week and looked after Bobby - a male cat who goes outdoors, whilst his owners went on holiday. Bobby is a very skittish cat but I met him a week or so prior to my friend going away on holiday. Whilst I stayed at his home, he slowly got used to me being there and even started rubbing against me and accepting treats by hand. I have countless times also looked after my sisters cats as well as other friends and family throughout the years. All of this makes me feel very confident that your cats would be in good hands with me. I am patient, loving and calm.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
If I was visiting your home, you could count on me to be first and foremost, safe, trustworthy, respectful and considerate. I understand that letting someone into your home can be a worrisome thing, however, I do want to reassure you that I would take care of it better than if it was my own. That means, shoes off, doors locked upon arrival and secured again when leaving. I will give you updates whilst looking after your pets too, if you want them. This could just be a simple text letting you know when I have arrived and left, or it could be picture updates of your pet. Its entirely up to you. I would of course follow your direction when it comes to things like feeding times, preferences of the pet such as how to prepare their food, what flavour they prefer at different times of the day, treat allowances etc. I don't shy away from a litter tray either so you can be assured that your pet would be clean and comfortable too. I would be open to offering my home for Home Boarding for certain situations but I would prefer to visit peoples homes instead. My home is quite secure in the sense that, I have a spare room where the pet could roam in their own space. The front door isn't really used and then the back door leads onto a porch so there would be no risk of a pet slipping out without my knowledge.

Schedule
I am currently working full time - however, I do have quite a flexible working pattern. I work a 4 week Rota and get at least 1 week off work every month by utilising my annual leave. I usually take the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of week 1 off ( see below) I would be more than happy to drop in before/after work where needed. Of course during my week off at work I would have more time to dedicate to your pet(s). If that means just popping in to feed/change litter or just some time with them - I am open and flexible. To show you in a bit more detail & provide a bit more context- this is my working pattern: Week 1: Monday - OFF Tuesday OFF Wednesday: 12-9 Thursday: 12-9 Friday: 12-9 Saturday: OFF Sunday: OFF Week 2: Monday-Friday: 8am-5pm Saturday: OFF Sunday: OFF Week 3: Monday: 8:30-5:30 Tuesday: 8:30-5:30 Wednesday: 9am-5:30pm Thursday: 9am-5:30pm Friday - OFF Saturday: 12-9 Sunday: 12-9 Week 4: Monday: 12-9 Tuesday: 12-9 Wednesday: OFF Thursday: OFF Friday: 8am-5pm Saturday: 8am-4:30pm Sunday 8am-4:30pm
