“Was the first time when I left Milo alone..and I was terrified🥺 but with Justina everything was more than amazing. She is so kind and so good with cats! I can't thank her enough! Thank you ! ❤️”

“Dalo was fantastic with Holly. She's an old rescue on oral liquid medication and though Dalo hadn't medicated a cat before, he took to it like a duck to water. He was so intuitive to reading her subtle behavioural cues, and gave her the perfect amount of space and cuddles to meet her needs. Would have him again in a heartbeat!”

“Hope was fabulous! Went above and beyond, kept me updated and looked after my little Nico so so well. She even helped me out when I had a last minute change of plans and needed some additional visits. Would recommend her 100%.”

“Megan was great with Kobe. He can be nervous meeting new people and she knew exactly how to be with him to make him feel at ease. She sent lots of photo updates and photos and Kobe looked like he was having a great time!”


About: I treat them all with love and respect 💕🐾 I like to make a quick Q&A to learn about the routine of your pet, as well as ther and your preferences, making them as comfortable as they can be while you're away. After our quick Q&A I'll be able to analyze the characteristics and merge the with my daily schedule. I'll save time for the essentials but also for cuddling, playing, walking and everything your pet needs. Respect the owner and pet routine as much as possible, bringing both of you comfort and reliability in order for you to be relaxed and well cared for.
“Joly is an excellent cat sitter. Came in to check on our cat whilst we were away. Quick to respond and meet us initially then kept great communication throughout our time away. Thank you again!”


“Charlie was wonderful! She was so warm and friendly and made Cleo feel very safe and comfortable despite her being a little nervy kitty at first. Charlie was super flexible and accommodating and sent updates and photos. We will definitely work with her again!”

“Margaret was incredible with Envy, she took her on long walks, drop-ins full of cuddles. My dog warmed up to her very quickly. She provided images and updates on what they got up to throughout the visits. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to her when I need. Thanks again Margaret!”

“Drew is super attentive and reliable. Great communication from start to finish and feels like a very safe pair of hands for our pup. Basil looked like he had a lovely time! Thank you, Drew.”

“As in previous occasions, Abigail has been a fantastic carer for our two guinea pigs. Lots of updates and pictures, good communication, she is just perfect! More than recommended.”

“Huge thank you Lesley for being such a great sitter for Matilda! You were really diligent and kind, sharing lots of detail and pictures. You went above and beyond and it set my mind at ease while on holiday. Will be sure to book again! Thanks so much. Xx”


About: I’ve been around and adored both cats and dogs from my childhood. I’ve never understood the great divide between cat and dog lovers…why can’t I be both?! I’m a remote freelance designer so have a very flexible schedule that can shift around the needs of your pet. I don’t have pets or family of my own, so your furry friend can be my priority! Without the need to go into an office during the day, I have the ability to care for your pet in the comfort of their own environment.
About: Hello 👋 I’m Fede, a lecturer & animal enthusiast originally from Sicily & living in Croydon. I have been an animal lover all my life & would love to offer boarding & walks to your fur babies! Cat owner for 5 years & experience with family dogs for 8 years plus! I offer a safe home with copious treats, walks in nearby parks, cuddles & belly scratches! I have a fenced and very secure garden. Your beloved cats & dogs will be in great company & have lots of fun with my sweet & friendly kitty cat, Timmy! If you’d like to know more or have any questions please drop me a message! 💕🐾🦴🐕🦺🐈
About: I’ve had own cats my whole adult life. For the last 6 years I have fostered cats in my home for the RSPCA, over the summer I had the pleasure of raising 5 kittens from 1 day old, that was amazing! I’m very confident with cats and seem to have a natural way with all cat personalities, I’m also very confident with any medication requirements. This is a cat only home for boarding, no dogs I’m afraid. All kitties will be kept indoors at all times but are welcome to roam the house. If needed I do have a separate quiet room for nervous kitties. I also offer cat & dog sitting and dog walks. It is great to be able to look after animals in their own homes too. I’m very experienced with home visits and am trusted by many owners and their lovely pets. I work from my home and am here for all the kitties that stay with me 24/7. They will have all the care they need at any time of the day or night. This is an indoor cat house only. They will be very safe and welcome to roam the house and come for cuddles or there is always a separate quiet room for nervous kitties.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats since I was a kid. Starting with my family pets and gradually helping friends and neighbours over the years. I enjoy every part of making sure pets feel safe, comfortable and happy. I love the outdoors and long walks. I have experience with pets of all ages, from young puppies to older dogs who require a gentle approach. I have always worked hybrid with 1-2 days in the office so looking to fill my working from home days with company, either by walks or doggie day care! My sales meetings are fit around my preference so really can make your little one my focus for the day I live in a doggie friendly building with pet spa and enclosed garden area. My flat is also near several parks which makes dog walks nice and easy!
“Maximilian is a magician. My two girls are the most nervous little sweethearts but Maximilian has such a gentle nature they took to him so quickly, playing with him and sitting with him and having lots of conversations. Maximilian took great care of them and his communication was so great, I felt really comfortable having him in my home and with my angels. Will definitely book again if he's available.”

“Rachel is just amazing! She looked after our two cats and I couldn't be more happy, we had updates, photos and videos with every drop in and the cats are super comfortable with Rachel including the anxious one! We will be definitely booking with Rachel again!! Thank you!!!”

Shannon looked after our ginger baby, Barney, for a week in June 2026x Shannon was so communicative and provided the best videos and photos from any cat sitter we have ever had! Always on time and spent a good amount of time with Barney for each visit. I would recommend Shannon for any future cat sits!

I’ve always been anxious about leaving Lexi and Millie when we go away, but since we found Tilly to cat sit I feel much more at ease as Tilly keeps us updated on a daily basis with lovely photos, she also feeds our fish and waters all our plants. We are so greatfull and happy to have found her Thank you Tilly 😊

Connie was fab and lovely as always. She kept our cat fed and watered while we were away, cleaned up after him and spent time playing with him and getting him his running water treat.
