Cat Sitting Dereham

“Looked after our two cats when we were away, had no issues with booking and communicating with Claire was easy and stress free. Would recommend.”

Laura B.

“Lia was excellent with our 2 cats & they both loved her visiting them. We received regular updates and pictures. Having never used anyone before, we were hesitant but now will be re-booking with Lia every time we go away! Thank you for taking such good care of them both - we would recommend Lia’s service to everyone :) ”

“Andreas takes good care of Amelie and always sends plenty of pictures so I can be sure she is being looked after.”

“This is the second time we’ve used Alexio to sit our two cats. He was even kind enough to water our grass while we were away during the heat-wave. Thanks again Alexio!”

About: Hi, I’m Paulina — though the dogs know me as Pawlina 🐾! I run PAWLINA: Home for Pets, a safe, licensed, and insured home-from-home for dogs in Little Fransham. I hold a Breckland Council Animal Welfare Licence (AWL0208) for home boarding and daycare of up to 5 dogs, so you can be sure your pets are cared for to the highest standards. I’ve loved animals since I was a child—my home was always full of pets, and I’ve felt happiest outdoors in nature. I’m calm and gentle, which animals seem to naturally sense. Even the shyest ones warm up to me quickly and often come over for cuddles. I can't walk away when an animal needs help—like the little kitten I rescued and found a loving home for (take a peek at my gallery, but be prepared for a cuteness overload 😍). It makes me very happy to make animals feel safe and loved. What I also love about my pet-sitting work is the chance to meet wonderful people—pet owners who, like me, truly care about animals. From my experience, pet owners are some of the kindest and most caring individuals you can find, and I feel lucky to be around such a kind community. At Pawlina's, your furry family member will be safe, loved, and treated like one of my own. I can’t wait to welcome them and help them feel right at home! 🐾❤️ I work part-time from home — just a couple of hours in the morning and a couple in the afternoon, Monday to Friday. Because my job is home-based, I’m available all week to care for your pets. They’ll never be left for long periods and will always get plenty of time, care, and attention every single day. Together with my partner, I live in a cosy two-bed bungalow with a secure 0.17-acre garden in peaceful Little Fransham. The area is wonderfully quiet, with beautiful walks right on our doorstep — perfect for outdoor adventures with pets. Whether welcoming your furry friend into my spacious, pet-friendly home or caring for them in yours, I prioritise creating a calm and secure environment. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routines and preferences so they feel completely at ease.

About: I have a qualification in animal care and first aid. I have looked after dogs and cats all of them with multiple different temperaments and needs. I am currently at college which means I do pet sitting on the weekends. I also regularly look after my neighbours dog during the week which consists of taking their dog for a walk and feeding. I care for animals in the pet owners home, which is where I let the dog out for toileting and a play. Then after they've done their business I then take them back in for some down time.

About: Hey there! I'm 27 yo and I've had dogs for 27 years! Usually medium sized ones but I had a huge German Shepherd x Brazilian Fila gal from when I was 4 'til 15. After she'd gone we welcomed a cat into our home by providing her food and she came back with her 3 kittens and then the entire cat population heard about it and we ended up having dozens of cats throughout the years, acting a lot like a rescue (we started neutering neighborhood strays and trying to rehome them). Now I'm staying in a farm in East Sussex for a bit and missing my pets like crazy! So I'm not being dramatic when I say I'll take care of yours as if they were my own. I'm currently living in a farm and lending a hand where needed with childcare and light chores around the house. On weekdays the only time I'm stuck to a routine is when the kids get home from school, so I prepare dinner, wash up and help out with homework from around 16h30 to 19h30. Even then I still have loads of flexibility and I'm only accross a garden from my place, so I'd be around to make sure everything's okay at all times. The family I'm staying with have 2 cats that roam the farm and a very friendly small dog who also roams a lot and makes friends really easily. As I said, though, they're the family's pets as all of mine are back home in Brazil (💔) and the place would be just for whoever I'm sitting and me. We do have a public footpath that receives loads of walkers and dog walkers daily, and that path is right by my cabin, so I can only accept dogs that have had all of their jabs, for their own safety.

“Zoe was fabulous with our Henry! He’s a very pampered cat.. and isn’t sure of new people. But he was very settled and happy with Zoe. A chilled calm and happy little man when we returned home after a couple of days away. Zoe sent me a few photos- which is super reassuring. She took great care of our home. We would not hesitate to ask for Zoe again, or recommend her!”

“I was so pleased to have Ann visit and feed my cat whilst I was away for a couple of days. Communication was easy and I felt confident that my cat was left in good hands, which indeed she was. Thank you!”

About: Hello, I am Sarah-Beth😊 I am a confident and friendly dog lover. In the past 6 years I have experience in cat and dog home visits, and I have been used frequently to house and dog sit while my clients have been away on holiday. My experience has included key holding responsibility, dog walking, cleaning duties, and administering medication. I have a small car so would not be able to transport unfortunately, but I am happy to travel and visit your pooches at home and take them on their favourite local walks. I am currently saving for a house so I am open to all the work I can get. I am interested in arranging regular weekly visits, walks, or house sits for longer periods such as for holidays. Any questions are welcome and I hope to hear from you soon!🤍 I currently work full time at a primary school. I clean the school from 6am-8am, then work as a Teaching Assistant 8:30am-3:30pm. I am hard working and committed. I would be able to attend visits and walks after 3:30pm. I am really into fitness so an after work walk / run is already part of my daily routine. I will also have some weekend availability upon request. I strive to replicate the owners schedule and care habits as best I can to reduce stress for the pet and ensure routine is kept. I lost our family dog in 2021, he was a golden Labrador and he was the most lovable boy. I miss having the company of a pet and would enjoy giving that love to another families special fur baby. I am a budding runner and would love to have a fury friend by my side.

“We were delighted with the service Abby provided in taking care of our three Ragdoll cats. Abby was professional, she sent us photographs of the cats whilst we were on holiday, which brought us joy knowing they were in good hands.”

About: I am the proud owner of a golden cocker-spaniel, aged 5, and was also the owner of a wonderful tuxedo cat up until last year!

I give them lots of love and attention, and taking care of them safely is my top priority.

I am willing and able to assist with toilet training or crate training your puppy, and likewise happy to assist with litter training or toilet assisting a kitten or elder cat!

“Imogen looked after my cats for the first time recently, and I could not recommend her more highly. I have seven cats, all with very different personalities and needs. Some are extremely high-maintenance, some are incredibly friendly, others are very shy, and three of them have epilepsy and require close monitoring. It can definitely be a bit overwhelming for someone who isn’t used to a busy multi-cat household, but Imogen handled everything amazingly. From the moment she came for a meet-and-greet, it was obvious how naturally good she is with animals. Two of my cats immediately gravitated towards her, which I think says everything, as cats are usually very good judges of character! All of the cats absolutely loved her, and I felt completely reassured knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. She was calm, attentive, and clearly very experienced and comfortable around cats with different temperaments and medical needs. I’m so grateful for the care she gave my babies, and I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. I’m very happy with the service Imogen provided and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.”
