Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced Cat Rescue Lady! Shy Cats, Grumpy Cats, Elderly Cats, Diva Cats - I love them all : )
Hi there Fellow Animal Lovers! My name is Sheila and I'm a 59 year young writer with lots of free time, I'm flexible, reliable and I would love to come look after your treasured pets. I'm not able to have cats where I live so I would love to come look after yours, pretty please! I have been a house/pet sitter for many years living in Greece, looking after my neighbours cats and since then I have done so for friends and family. Whilst in Greece, I fed, neutered and gave medication to the local stray cats, taking them to my lovely local vet there who still knows me very well. When I eventually relocated back to the UK I took as many of my stray cats as I could to Germany to be rehomed before I left. I miss each and every one of them to this day but at least I know I did my best for them.... I miss looking after all of my animals over the years and my dream is to one day return to Crete to help the stray cats again.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I will take care of your treasured pets as well as I would my own and will fit into their routines and the comforts that they are used to and enjoy with you, their pet Mum and Dads until you come home. I will take down lots of details and find out the requirements of your pets and also for the safety of your home. I will send you daily updates and photos and am happy to do extras such as water your plants, etc. I have an enhanced up to date DBS check (November 2025) and can provide lots of excellent reviews from previous and existing clients. My travel rate is free up to 3 miles from Aldershot and then there is a small additional charge for petrol for 3+ miles depending on time/distance. I do not charge an additional rate for more than one kitty. There will be an additional charge for a vet visit in the unlikely event that this is necessary. I am always flexible so please do get in touch and let me know how I can help.
Ratings and reviews
I am so pleased we found Sheila to look after out cat whilst away. She was a joy to communicate with and there is every chance our cat now prefers Sheila to us! We will most certainly book her again and highly recommend her. Thanks Sheila!
100% would recommend! Girls were well taken care of and love their little gift 😉 Sheila was very thorough in the initial meet & my girls were very happy. Will definitely be booking again in future! Thank you so much x
Could not fault any aspect of Sheila's care for our two cats - she was incredibly diligent, considerate, and attentive during her visits. Highly recommend her as a sitter!
Brilliant as usual! Highly recommend Sheila! Rico loves his visits, we’re happy to have found a good, reliable cat sitter!
Sheila is always fabulous with our cat Wilbur. He’s also incredibly fussy and has some health issues so needs regular medication. Sheila is brilliant at giving him 100% care he needs as well as lots of love and attention. Our cat loves her and it makes holiday time a lot less stressful knowing he is in safe hands!
I honestly couldn't have chosen a better person for my cats, Sheila was absolutely wonderful with them and I could tell by the daily photos sent that they loved her. My home was left spotless and my cats happy. I couldn't have asked for anything more! Thank you so much & can't wait for you to look after them again in the future. Love&paws Brittany, Mila & Arlo x

Schedule
My schedule is pretty relaxed and varies. I offer 1 or 2 home visits a day, or 1 hour a day if that’s what you’d prefer. I am very happy to be your returning cat lady if this is what you require! I am pretty flexible and am happy to accommodate reasonable requests so please do get in contact and let's chat!
