Cat Sitting in Castle Point

About: We are a busy family, living in a large home surrounded by land with plenty of large open spaces close by for long walks. Near to the sea for those water loving canines who stay with us! I have been around dogs and animals of all kinds my whole life, as have my family. You can rest assured that your beloved companion will be loved and cared for as if he/she were at home. I am at home most of the the day ready with some fuss and attention, game playing or exercise. Our own dogs are friendly and playful. Buddy is a Bordernese (cross border collie/Bernese Mountain Dog). He is 6 years old and loves new friends coming to stay. Ted is an 11 year old cross Yorkshire Terrier/Chihuahua. Small in size but big on personality and vocal ability!! The care of your pet is my priority. I love dogs and this is why I choose to do the work I do. It gives me great satisfaction to know dogs are happy and secure staying with me. Our home is spacious with a large garden perfect for games with myself and other guests! There is however, plenty of room should one of our visitors prefers a quieter space away from play and noise.

About: Along with my BSc (Hons) Animal Management degree, allowing me to develop my skills in animal husbandry and knowledge of animal nutrition and health, I also have years of experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it's puppies that are learning structure, or senior pets who require patience or unique care, I can adapt to each pet’s needs. I am reliable and communicative, and will provide pet updates and pictures while I am caring for them. I will always prioritise your pet's safety and treat every pet like family to make them feel secure and comfortable. I currently work part-time, normally four hour shifts, but can be up to six hours. I will try to match my pet care availability based on the days I am not working to be able to give your pet my full attention. Options can be discussed for pets that have special requirements, such as needing more constant supervision and care, and I will try to fit pet care around my shifts to the best of my ability. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for your pet. In your home, I will follow your pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable, creating a safe and secure environment. I will always stay in touch, providing updates and photos so you can be assured that your pet is happy and safe. I am attentive to any instructions, and I treat each pet like they are my own.

“Hollie was a fantastic cat sitter while we were away! She was very positive, quick to respond and made sure Freddy was well cared for! We truly appreciate her attentiveness and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. We will definitely be contacting Holly again!”

“Rebekah was amazing and our three girls did great under her care! She was so attentive to their needs, ensured they were well fed, regularly changed the litter trays and kept us updated with lots of photos and daily reports on how they were doing. It was our first time using a cat sitter so I'm really glad it was Rebekah and highly recommended her if you are ever in need of someone to look after your cats while away. We'll definitely be using Rebekah's services again if we go away in the future!”

“I booked Sophie for drop in visits with my cat. She was very responsive and flexible - I left off a day in my request and she was able to help me add it back in. We met before I went on my trip and even though her profile is mostly about dogs, I felt that she understood cat behavior when she interacted with my shy cat. While I was away, she sent me lots of messages and pictures/videos of my cat which I enjoyed. Overall, I was very satisfied with the job she did.”

About: With 10+ years of cat and dog care experience and four cats of my own, I provide dependable, compassionate, and personalized care for every pet “Working remotely allows me to easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent attention, timely feedings, playtime, and companionship. My flexible schedule also means I can adapt to each pet’s needs—whether that’s medication, walks, or just some extra cuddles.” With 4 indoor rescue cats, routine is key. Feeding schedule (times, food type, portion size), Ensure my boys are loved and respecting their space especially as they are older cats.

“Emma is fantastic! Our dog loves her and had such a good time. Emma send us pictures and updates and took really good care of Sunny. We will repeat very soon.”

About: I specialise in personalised care for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions. What sets me apart is my background in basic puppy training, helping them develop good habits early, as well as my expertise in caring for senior pets with special needs, ensuring they’re comfortable and well taken care of. I’m dedicated to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away I work from home every Monday and Friday and I am free all day and I am willing to walk or look after your pet. I also am at home and free most Saturday’s and Sunday’s. When caring for pets in my home or yours, safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities. In my home, I’ve created a pet-friendly space with secure areas where pets can roam freely, yet safely. I ensure all hazards are removed, and I maintain a calm, clean environment with plenty of toys, comfy spots for naps, and safe outdoor access for playtime. I also follow the specific routines and rules set by the pet owner, keeping everything as familiar as possible for your pet. When I care for pets in their own homes, I prioritize sticking to their usual routines to minimize stress. I follow detailed instructions for feeding, exercise, and medication schedules, and I keep their environment secure and comfortable. Whether it’s checking in on them during the day or staying overnight, I treat your home with respect and care, ensuring your pet feels secure and loved in their own familiar space. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my main focus, no matter where I’m caring for them!

Should I dogsit in your home I will spend most of my time snuggled up with them relaxing after a long walk.

“I booked Rosie to look after my two cats, whereby she visited us beforehand to meet them and understand their usual routine. On the dates agreed, Rosie was on time and spent the time feeding them, generally getting to know them and also sent pictures. Both furry boys seemed happy and content and I will definitely be using Rosie again.”
