Knowledgeable Cat Lover
I understand I'm not the cheapest sitter on the app but I do really long visits and really care for the cats! Whatever the cat needs (cuddles, treats, litter change, clean up, playtime) I have experience using ear cream but prefer not to do injections as these are difficult alone. I have a car so can do emergency vet trips or ones in the daytime if you're unavailable. My visit lengths depend on the cats and their needs, as well as my schedule that day. Visit durations are a minimum of 20 minutes but usually around an hour - it depends on the cat. If the cat is very shy and scared around visitors I will see what is best for the cat on that occasion. I have successfully gone from looking after a shy and scared cat who hissed and didn't want to be near me, to getting strokes and eating out of my hand within a week using my cat behaviour knowledge and skills. Typical visits for friendly cats are usually an hour or so. Depending on my diary, what the cat needs and owner preference, I may work from the owner's house for a few hours to make sure the cat gets the attention they need (this is usually for indoor cats or those that are used to having an owner next to them 24/7). All of this can be discussed and agreed depending on you and your furbaby!

Ratings and reviews
We had a great experience with Sian and would not hesitate to use her again. She was reliable, polite and kept us informed throughout the weekend she looked after Mia. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos. It was really reassuring to see Mia happy and relaxed whilst we were away, and playing with new toys that Sian brought round. We found Sian to be a caring and thoughtful cat sitter.
It was our first time using such a service and Sian exceeded our expectations. She not only fed, watered and cleared up after our elderly cat Polly, she spent quality time with her and they became firm friends. Sian's 'super nanny' visits included feedback on Polly's general health and she made important changes to her diet and very generously brought along new toys, fur brushes and the like. We had had issues with Polly pooping in inappropriate places and Sian solved it with dietary adjustments and a new litter tray regime. We are so grateful for her presence in Polly's life while we were away and we wouldn't hesitate to call on her expertise again. On a personal level Sian is warm, friendly and passionate about the felines of this world. Highly recommended!
Sian was an excellent cat sitter for my 2 girls! Communication was great, she was totally reliable and looked after them as if they were her own. I received lots of updates with photos and videos and I know they had a lovely time with her. I would definitely book Sian again and highly recommend her to others.
Sian took excellent care of our cats. Communication was great and we felt very reassured that our kitties were in good hands.
Sian was amazing with our little Nevsy. She took extra care of her while we were on holiday and kept us informed with lovely pics and video
Sian was absolutely amazing with our two cats. She was so knowledgeable, patient and loving with our timid boys and soon won them round. She sent us photos and videos everyday to keep us updated. It was our first time leaving them but having Sian there really put our minds at ease. Would highly recommend her and will be having her again!

Schedule
I work from home most days and sometimes go into the office. I love cats and they are my life! Usually every spare minute involves cats, if not looking after someone's cat, then volunteering for a cat charity.
