Top-rated Cardiff cat sitters

“Lisa has looked after our cat twice now, at quite short notice. She's been really flexible and accommodating as our booking changed, provided everything we asked for, and was very patient and gentle with our shy girl.”


“Meowser was obviously very well looked after, she was content and happy when I arrived back from travel. Poppy was great, communication was good and she sent many photos. Cat litter was nice and tidy when I arrived back. Great job!”


“Abi deserves more than a five star rating. Every report and visit detail, as well as photos was proof that Mitzi was WELL looked after. Reading her feedback made us smile every time. So much so, that we were looking forward to her visiting Mitzi. Our cat was clearly more comfortable with her, than we ever could have hoped for. Abi is highly recommended.”


“Linke did a great job of looking after my cat. Including topping up water, feeding dry and wet food, cleaning litter and cleaning kitchen after use. Meowser was happy and well when I got back from business trip. Many thanks”


“Thank you for being massive help in looking after Poppy! This was my first time using Rover and leaving her for an extended period of time so was a bit nervous. You were an absolute star in giving regular updates and photos, and responded quickly to my messages. I am also so grateful that you were happy to look pop over for a pre-visit, just to see the cat and talk through things face to face, really helped put my mind at ease. I will definitely get in touch if Poppy ever needs looking after again! 🧡”


“Good communication over message and we’re very grateful that Mark was able to drop in on our boys last min after our sitter cancelled. He was very flexible, and good with cats which is rare to find on Rover. The visit went well and our boys were happy when we arrived back home. Thanks Mark; we recommend Mark to others looking for a cat sitter and hope to book again.”


“We were so happy with Myya. She was absolutely lovely with Sefi, who was so trusting and relaxed with Myya even though it was her first visit. We look forward to having Myya back.”


“Angel is brilliant. Paddy loved his daily snuggles with Angel. When I returned, he was in good health and happy. I was nervous because he’d struggled when I tried a cattery before but Angel was absolutely fantastic and Paddy was in great spirits when we returned. Great communication from Angel, loved the daily updates and we would definitely hire her again 😊”


“Molly was brilliant with our cat, Rala. She came by a few days before her drop-in visits to meet us, which really made us feel at ease. The regular thorough updates and photos also made us feel she was in safe hands. We'd definitely have her to pet sit for us again.”


“Melissa looked after our cats & our home for a few days and did a fantastic job. She was great at communicating with us, sent loads of photo and video updates which we loved, and showed she was really engaging with the cats, playing with them and giving them lots of treats and fuss. Most importantly, when she came to meet them the cats were quite comfortable with her straight away which was a great sign given they can be so hard to win over! Thanks so much for looking after them :)”


“Can't recommend Junyao enough! Looked after my cat Dorothy (it was Dorothy's first time staying somewhere she didn't know) and she was so well looked after. I received lots of photos and reassurance she was doing well. Thank you so much!”


“Hannah was excellent with our dog, reliable, communicative with regular photo updates. Highly recommend.”


“Morgan was great and clearly knows her dogs! She replied super quickly and looked after our dog jasper at short notice. Would highly recommend!”


“Lydia has looked after my three cats with care and attention to all their needs. She has also left everything clean and tidy.I appreciated all her updates and photos. I would be happy to have Lydia again if she would like to come. Thank you.”


“Matthew was friendly, reliable and delivered the job as advertised checking on my cat simba once a day for a weekend away. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask Matthew to look after Simba again. Thank you!”


“Emily is a fantastic sitter, great with communication and honey was well looked after and spoilt!! We would 100% book her again :) thank you ❤️”


“Rebekah came to look after my cat Lola for two days. I would highly recommend her. She sent me daily updates and videos for reassurance. Rebekah also administered the daily medication in a professional manner ... she is clearly a massive animal lover. I would certainly be very happy for Rebekah to look after my cats anytime. Thanks Rebekah!”


“A big thank you to Hannah for looking after my 3 Kitties. They’ve all got very different needs, with one of them being a kitten, yet Hannah was able to cater to each of them individually. One of my boys is very timid and anxious with anyone other than me, however he warmed up to Hannah very quickly which allowed me to relax on my trips away. I will definitely be using Hannah for my next trip, thanks again”


About: I strongly believe in allowing dogs to come to you. As adorable and squishy as they can be it’s important they trust you and we don’t force ourselves on them. I’ve had dogs since I was a child, I’ve frequently taken care of family and friends pets also - some for long periods of time. In the last 5 years I’ve also had my own dogs with my husband from our beautiful Cavachon🌈 to our now two crazy 3 year olds one a chocolate Labrador and the other a German Shepherd. I am well acquainted with behavioural issues as well as dogs with high anxiety and trauma. Our Cavachon was adopted and had a lot of trauma based anxiety leading to biting. Our German Shepherd is a rescue who didn’t have a great start in life and she’s a very nervous dog (far less nervous now though!), I also have experience with puppies as our Labrador we’ve had from 8 weeks old, she’s a menace! I also have experience with: - Behavioural Issues - Separation anxiety - Giving oral medication - Applying topical medication - RAW feeding - Daily health routines (teeth brushing, ear cleaning, bathing and brushing) - Older dogs - Small and large breeds It’s important dogs feel comfortable and I will follow any routine your dog is used to at your request. I’m also happy to be provided with a list of training commands your dog uses to ensure I am reinforcing the correct words and behaviour. I drive and always have dog seat belts available. In case of emergency I would be able to take your pet to a vet’s. If pre booked by you I am also happy to take your dog to a secure field if you’d prefer them to have more freedom. *I have a disability and can use a variety of mobility aids depending on the day. Please let me know if mobility aids can be triggering for your pup. I can also work in homes that aren’t accessible (just ask if you have any concerns). I work part time for the company my husband and I run. This means my hours are flexible and I typically work from home. I am fairly flexible and I’m open to last minute requests. I follow your guidance, you know your dog best as well the routine your dog(s) know. Whilst I’m in your home I will treat it with absolute respect and always leave it as I find it. I know many owners myself included love to receive frequent updates and photos which I am always happy to provide. If your preference is different I will also respect this and meet your expectations. In the future I hope to open up my own home also.

“Following a 4 day house sit (see previous review), I asked Rhiannon if she'd mind coming back once more in the evening to check on the dogs following a change of plans. Rhiannon was more than happy to do this and we were very grateful for her being so flexible. thjank you so much for everything!”
