Cat Sitting in Chelmsford

“Returned from a short break to find two happy and relaxed cats. Loved the photos of each visit; they reassured us that both cats were happy in Tilly’s company. And that they were not just being fed but had playtime too! Thanks Tilly”

About: Hi there! We’re Leia and Dan, a young couple who loves animals. We’re currently in a flat, so we’re looking to share our space with your furry friends to get a flavour of what it’d be like for us in the future. We live in a comfortable space with a balcony for fresh air throughout the day. Both working hybrid work patterns so one of us will be at home throughout the day to have cuddles, belly rubs and walks. Having grown up with cats, and regularly looked after my parents cats, we know they have their boundaries, but love to have attention (on their terms) and have that perfect chin scratch. When boarding cats, we wouldn’t have the balcony open to ensure they are kept safe. We naturally love to be outside, whether that’s walking or camping. So, if you decide to board your pooch, trust they will be taken on many walks (it keeps us healthy!) to explore local routes. Whether it’s a walk, a day, a weekend, a week, or more, we’re happy to discuss looking after your pet. Both of us work hybrid work patterns so one of us will be at home throughout the day to have cuddles, belly rubs and walks throughout the week. Our weekends change depending on the weather and social plans. Sometimes we stay at home watching movies and playing board games, and other times we like to venture out and explore a new walking routes and stop mid way for a lunch break. So we can accommodate our schedule depending on your pet. We have a balcony for fresh air which we will keep open if we are looking after dogs (and a watchful eye at all times). For cats, we wouldn’t have these open but instead keep our windows ajar so the fresh air can still flow in but they are kept safe. If looking after pets in your home, we take security very seriously. Ensuring that any doors are locked and keys kept safe until you return.

About: My family has had dogs my entire life, so I grew up caring for them from a young age. This experience has made me very confident and comfortable in taking care of dogs, understanding their routines, and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care fits very well into my daily routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pets. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and in-home care during weekdays and weekends, and I always make sure pets receive consistent care, playtime, and companionship. I always prioritize pets’ safety, comfort, and well-being. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions, keep a clean and calm environment, and make sure pets feel secure at all times. I supervise interactions, respect routines, and provide lots of attention, affection, and responsible care whether in my home or the pet owner’s home.

About: I provide dog walks, pet sittings and even jogging sessions for pups who need that extra boost. Helping pets stay active, happy and cared for is my aim with every visit - making your days a little easier too. I am a 27 years old girl from Spain who moved to the UK almost five years ago and I can’t recall a time before moving to this country where I didn’t have animals at home. So I am really grateful to everyone who has trusted me and allowed me to have fun and cuddles with their furry family members over these years! I’m currently studying online and I have a very flexible schedule. Pet sitting and dog walking is something I would love to do forever if life doesn’t get on the way. That’s why I am available full time and at short notice. I offer reliable and caring pet and house sitting services to ensure your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away.

“Barbara took care of our little dog and 2 indoor cats while we were away. She is so thoughtful and responsible. We appreciated the care she took to meet with us and our pets before the actual date of our trip. Barbara was kind to send us updates and photos while we were away. She was everything we were hoping for. We are very happy to have found a wonderful pet sitter!”

About: I am a kind, caring and experienced pet sitter. I have looked after my family's dogs and cats for 5+ years. I pride myself on being a conscientious, caring and attentive dog and cat sitter. My family loves animals and love caring for them. My husband and I have been together for 10 years, and we have been living in Chelmsford for 5 years. We have two beautiful boys in our home who are comfortable around small dogs and cats. We have a secure garden, no pets and do not smoke. We ask that any dogs or cats are comfortable and safe around young children. I’m currently on maternity leave so I am home full time. We are up early with two young boys and spend lots of time outdoors. I have a fully secured garden so your dog can go in and out whenever needs to go to the toilet. I am available to care and give affection as I am based at home full time.

“Tia provided excellent care for our pets when we went on holiday. She is friendly and reliable and sent us regular updates and photos when she dropped in to look after them. We would definitely recommend Tia to look after your animals. Thanks Tia!”

About: I've spent years caring for my own pets and currently share my home with three dogs and a cat (and I still want more). So I've had lots of hands-on experience with different ages, care needs, pooping abilities and personalities (and they certainly all have them). I'm comfortable with different feeding schedules, daily exercise needs, puppy training and creating a safe environment for pets whilst giving lots of attention and love - they deserve it so much. As a pet owner who has used sitters and boarding services myself, I understand how important trust, communication, and reliability are. I know what it's like to leave a beloved pet in someone else's care, so I make it a priority to provide regular updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance while you're away. The best part of pet care for me is the relationship you build with animals. There's something special about earning their trust and seeing them become comfortable around you. There really is no pay grade or profession that can beat that for me - just give me all the cuddles and wagging tails please. Pet care is already a central part of my daily routine. My days revolve around caring for my own three dogs and cat, including walks, feeding, playtime, training, and making sure they are happy and comfortable. Having stepped away from my career in accounting to pursue a more balanced and rewarding lifestyle focused on animals, I have the time and flexibility to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. This means pets in my care benefit from plenty of companionship, supervision, exercise, and affection, rather than being left alone for long periods. Whether it's sticking to established routines, providing regular walks, or simply offering extra cuddles and reassurance, I enjoy making pet care a natural and rewarding part of every day. I believe pets are happiest when they feel safe, comfortable, and can maintain as much of their normal routine as possible. Before any booking, I like to learn about each pet's personality, habits, preferences, and any special requirements so I can provide care tailored to their individual needs. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family and are supervised closely. I have experience managing a multi-pet household with my own three dogs and cat, and I always ensure introductions are handled carefully and at a pace that keeps everyone comfortable. Fresh water, regular exercise, playtime, rest, and plenty of affection are all part of the daily routine. If caring for pets in their owner's home, I respect their established routines and environment, following feeding schedules, walk requirements, and any instructions provided to help pets feel secure while their owners are away. Communication is very important to me, so I provide regular updates and photos throughout a stay, giving owners peace of mind that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I bring a wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise to every pet in my care. Having completed an apprenticeship as a veterinary assistant and qualified as a dog trainer, I am able to recognise potential health concerns and work confidently with dogs of all temperaments, including those with challenging behaviours. I'm available for Dog Walking Monday to Saturday 9am to 7pm; for Pet Sitting I'm available all week. I'm have a very flexible schedule. I like to tailor my services to each individual pet. Some thrive on routine, others enjoy adventure. Whether you are looking for some human company for your pet or some adventure partner to take your dog exploring, I can help!

“Ben is great. Really amenable to our request and really seemed to enjoy looking after our cat. If I could give 6 stars I would. Will absolutely be asking him to look after Todd when we go away again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs since I was 7, and they’ve always been part of my family. I currently have a 2-year-old dog named Toby, so I understand the daily joys and responsibilities of caring for pets. Friends, family, and neighbours have trusted me for years to walk, play with, feed, and love their dogs as if they were my own. I have experience looking after dogs with health complications and am confident in providing medicine when needed. I’ve also trained all of my family’s dogs in the basics, from sit and stay to good leash manners. My whole family are massive animal lovers, and over the years we’ve had everything from goats and chickens to cats and more – so I’m comfortable and confident caring for a wide range of animals. As my partner works shifts, I have a lot of flexible free time – and I’d love to spend it walking, cuddling, and playing with your dogs. My partner and I absolutely love animals - we are the type of people to take treats for stray cats and dogs whilst on holiday. My dream is to open up my own doggy day care! I’m about most weekends and flexible during the week depending on the days I’m working in London. If you would like to meet before booking, I am happy to do so! I’ll likely have Toby with me so your doggo’s will have great company with us both! I’m a homeowner of a small house with a fenced garden in the by the Chelmsford bus and the train station - I’m walking distance to Bunny walks, Central and Admiral park. We also often go to Hylands for walks. I always prioritise your pet’s safety, whether in my home or yours, and follow any instructions you provide. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including those with medical needs, and can administer medication confidently. Any questions let me know!

About: I have had dogs all my life and understand their care needs for all their life stages. I have qualifications in animal management level 2 and 3. I know basic animal first aid. I am reliable and trustworthy to have in your home giving you peace of mind while you are away. Pet care is my main business and I make looking after your pet my priority. I’m available 7 days a week. I can stay at your property. I will come to your home and follow your routine for your pets while they are under my care. I am happy to administer any medication when necessary.

“Amy did another lovely job of caring for my cat whilst I was away. Thanks so much Amy. Always peace of mind to know that you are looking after Frankie”

“Lauren was absolutely brilliant when she popped in to see our cat, Pudding. She sent me reassurance that he was okay, and our house was okay too as he’s an indoor only boy, so knowing he was safe when she got there and left meant a lot to me. She played with him, sent lots of photos, and - as this was her first time sitting - let me know that she’d just sat with him when he’d wanted to chill, talking to him and making him feel familiar and safe. We’ll definitely be having her look after him more regularly (lucky for him)! Can’t recommend highly enough!”

Francesca H.

“I had a very good experience. I felt comfortable leaving my cat, Freya, in Mike's care and was confident that she was safe and well looked after while I was away. Everything went smoothly, and Freya seemed happy and relaxed when I returned. Communication was easy, and Mike sent plenty of cute photos and videos, which was very reassuring. It was clear that she was being properly cared for, and I would happily trust Mike with Freya again in the future.”

About: I've had pets all my life and my partner's family has had dogs for 8 years and he has also grown up with pets. My sister has recently got a dog as well. We love walking dogs in our spare time and looking after them for an evening or few days. I work 4 days a week Tuesday-Friday so happy to look after your pets Saturday-Monday. Myself and my partner can also take them during the week if you don't mind them being left for about 9 hours. I live in a flat with my partner Ricky without an outdoor space but we live very near to a nature reserve which we can walk to. We also live near several parks in Chelmsford.
