“Susan was fab as always. I actually think my cats like her more than they like me. Litter tray was spotless and all their bowls were clean for my return. Susan kept in touch with me all holiday, sending lovely pictures that helped with my anxiety about leaving them. Would highly recommend her services ”
“I booked Adina last minute to take care of my cat Archie on a bank holiday weekend when my other cat sitter cancelled last weekend. Adina was able to squeeze me in. Adina took very good care of Archie, and I was reassured by her prompt communication and care that Archie was well taken care of over the weekend. Archie had just been recently rehomed to me and this was the first time that I had left him overnight and with a sitter, so I was initially nervous but that soon melted away with the photos and videos Adina sent me. I would recommend Adina to anyone.”
“First time leaving the cats for a holiday and all i can say is WOW! Owen and Renata were amazing! Even with one of my cats who’s temperamental! The full 4 days I got pictures every day and a full report which just made us relax so much more on our holiday! I couldn't fault anything! Would definitely recommend! Thank you both so much for everything you've done!”
About: I work as a recruitment advisor from home for a well known charity so I'm free anytime. I have a Cat called Boo Boo who adopted me. He likes pastry and cake like his daddy! Also three other local cats like to visit! I love cats playfull and inquisitive nature and the funny things they get up to. My Visit will include making sure your cat is fed and watered. I will offer it play and petting. I'm happy to do overnight stays too. I have a clean DBS check I'll cat sit for free if you live locally and just need someone to pop in to feed and do litter
“Josh was fantastic. He was professional, thoughtful, and a great communicator. He spent quality time with our cat, who is usually very picky and nervous, yet she warmed to him quickly, which really put my mind at ease.”
About: Growing up I have cared for my own pets, neighbours pets, dont shy away from the muck work, grooming and other pet requirements. Will care to your extended family member as if they were my own. I am quite confident with different animals having cared. Love and care with deep genuine attention to the extended family member and will give you some trusted peace of mind that you have left your cared one in safe kind hands. I work full time and have alternative Mondays, Wednesdays and weekends off. Therefore I am flexible in how I can help you out. Cat/dog overnight homeowner stays, happy to house your cat for an overnight stay (wouldn't be fair to a dog to come and stay in my flat as I wouldn't be able to care for it throughout the day unless it's a one night or over night weekend stay when I am off. As I'd be able to take out on walks- have two beautiful greenspaces to chose from for long or short walks. I live in a flat with a balcony, I would be happy to house cats, smaller pets in their cage/tank throughout the week, but would have smaller availability for small dogs/medium dogs, due to full time work and I wouldn't be comfortable leaving them in a confined space without the care and attention they would require.
“The most important thing is that my cat liked Beatrice, which meant she responded well to Beatrice, ate her food and took her meds. Beatrice took my parcels in, put the bins out and gave her cuddles. Thank you Beatrice, it’s a weight off my mind to have someone I can rely on.”
“Teodora was fantastic and I fully recommend her. She was professional at all times. She is a proper animal person and my cat took to her immediately. Teodora is dependable and I really appreciated her detailed updates and photos upon every visit and her communications and quick responses meant I was completely comfortable and assured with her looking after my cat and I will definitely use Teodora again in the future. Top rated and highly recommend.”
“Ewelina is an amazing cat sitter! Super friendly, communicative and very accommodating; Came as a recommendation from a friend, and stepped in last minute, when I had to travel unexpectedly. Most importantly, my cat loved her and I came back home to a very relaxed kitty. Will definitely be recommending and booking again! Thank you Ewelina:)”

“Anke Ruth and her wonderful family provided an extremely thorough, reassuring and caring home drop-in service for our cat Gatcha while we were away for Christmas. We were impressed by the level of detail and care they put into every aspect of the job, and we loved seeing the many pictures and videos they provided during the stay to reassure us that he was happy and fine. Extra special mention to their wonderful daughter Sophia who left us lovely drawings of Gatcha - which we will keep on the fridge from here. Thank you all for a job extremely well done, we really appreciate your work ❤️”

Katie did a fantastic job looking after my cat, Jessica Fletcher. She sent me updates every day and it was clear that Jess was happy to see her and took an instant liking to her. I came home to a happy cat, and a tidy house. Katie was super reliable, trustworthy and gave me absolute peace of mind whilst I was away. I would 100% recommend her to anyone and I will be booking her again without hesitation.
