Cat Sitting in Oxford

“We’ve rebooked with her several times already, she is the best! Not only she is very kind and reliable, but our cats love her! On day one, our cat was already begging for her to give him belly rubs, and that’s always a great sign, they missed her! Having Valentina looking after our cats when we are away gives me such a peace of mind. Thank you so much, Valentina!”

“Cora did a fantastic job looking after our two cats over the Christmas period while we were away. Made sure they had plenty of food and water, plus gave them a few treats with loads of attention through play on the days she was visiting. Excellent communication with photos to show both cats were safe and happy. I definitely recommend Cora and we will hopefully be using her again if she is available!”

“Florin Is always timely, she communicates in advance when there are changes of plans. She is knowledgeable about animals and asks questions in consequence to inform how she will best look after them depending on their particular circumstances. My boy is shy and diabetic but he's already taken to Florin, she's patient and gentle and seems to understand instinctively what pace he needs.”

“Halle was extremely understanding of Prince’s needs and tried everything to keep him happy whilst we were away. He was fed well and didn’t go without anything. She looked after the house and kept things tidy, would 100% hire Halle again and perhaps prince will realise that Halle is actually trying to look after him haha”

About: I’ve grown up with cats and other animals and my family got a border collie during lockdown , so I’m used to high-energy dogs and strong personalities. I’m calm, reliable, and happy to follow your pet’s routine whether that’s walks, feeding, or just keeping them company. Im currently a student at Sussex University but im back in Oxford for the summer with a very flexible schedule able to fit to pretty much any routine. I take care to follow instructions closely and keep things calm and predictable for your pet. Whether at mine or yours, I make sure the environment is safe, quiet, and low-stress

“Thank you for looking after our cats. It was such a help and we were able to enjoy our time away knowing that Layla is looking after our babies. Thanks again!”

“Toby looked after our elderly cat very well and kept us updated every day. He was very professional and friendly and we would be very happy to use him again.”

Mary C.

“Qian was wonderful! She is a very professional, kind and considerate sitter. Excellent communication before and during the visit. It was the first time that we were leaving our kitten alone and were a little nervous, but we could not have left her in better hands! Thank you, Qian!”

“Great communication, always on time and allowed us to enjoy our holiday. We are really grateful for Fran and would recommend her to anyone! She took great care of our cat. Thank you!”

About: I bring a calm, reliable presence that helps pets feel safe and at ease. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, including seniors who need extra attention and patience, I’m also patient with puppies and understand how to handle their energy and training needs. What sets me apart is my flexibility! I offer house sitting so your pet can stay comfortable in their own space. I also live near several parks, which is perfect for long or short walks during the day if your pet only needs a few hours outside. I treat every pet like family and focus on creating an stress-free, loving environment. I’m currently on holiday from university, so my schedule is very flexible. I’m available mornings or afternoons and have plenty of time to care for and play with pets! When caring for pets in their home, I always prioritize their routine, comfort, and safety. I make sure doors and gates are secure, and I never leave pets unattended during walks. I treat every home with respect, keeping things clean and tidy, and ensuring your pet feels calm and cared for. I also stay in regular contact with updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your pet and home are in good hands. Trust, consistency, and clear communication are at the heart of how I care.

“Very happy to work around our schedule and seemed to have a nice time with Hazel.”

About: I’ve been around pets since I was a baby and can’t remember a time when I wasn’t surrounded by animals. I grew up with dogs, cats, birds, rabbits—you name it! Every animal has their own unique personality, and I love getting to know each one and making them feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Whether it’s a playful pup who needs lots of walks or a shy cat who prefers a quiet cuddle, I’m patient, attentive, and always adapt my care to fit your pet’s needs. I treat every animal like family and know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after them. Looking forward to meeting your furry family member soon! Currently on paternity leave with a newborn and a cat called Reggie, I’d like to extend my passion for animals to help others that may have busier schedules and can’t be at home to give the attention pets crave I have a fenced back garden that’s runs 80 foot long so plenty of space to stretch legs! Safe and secure from the outside world

“Benji had the best time with Marisa! Marisa’s communication was great and I received plenty of updates throughout Benji’s stay. Will continue to use Marisa to help me out. Benji is in good hands.”

About: My family had a golden retriever before I was even born so I have grown up living with animals in the house! In recent time I have cared for and looked after family and friends dogs on the regular and soon will be looking for my own. Love a big dog but have a love for all other size dogs as well. I currently work full time but with the potential to work from home. I work early shifts so Monday to Thursday I am available from 3 and Fridays available from 12. I like to stay active so very happy to integrate dogs into that part of my day ! Pets are adored in the house and there was a bearded collie in the house until recently where the owners had to move away, so the house is pet proof. Nice fenced garden for the dog to play about in and also the river and parks are extremely close (10 mins walk)

About: I've had an adorable pet cockapoo called Ethel for 2 years now. Currently being a university student at Oxford Uni, I hardly get to see Ethel and really miss being around dogs, so would love to be able to look after some dogs whilst I'm in Oxford. I am currently on vacation from my studies, but even when I return to studies, I am very flexible and can work around what times suit you. Being a student, I am looking more to take dogs for a walk (to places such as Port Meadow or ChristChurch Meadow) or visiting the dog in their own home.

“Professional, punctual and Avvie clearly loved her :)”

About: I grew up with many dogs. In my age 13-18 I had a part time job looking after dogs (all kinds of age) ut required cleaning after them, feeding them and basic training too. My step father used to be a police dog officer and used to take me to watch him training police dogs and thought me a lot about all of it. Unfortunately I don't have any certificate but I'm working on it. I can assure you your dog will be in safe hands. I've been working in hospitality for past 10 years but I have many friends with dogs and almost all of my free time I spent with them.. dog sitting them when my friends were on holiday etc. I always ensure that they are well (schedule by the owner) fed, that they drink enough of water and of course enough of exercise and walks.. I also enjoy very much to play with dos so you can be sure you doggo will be well treated and definitely will not get bored.

About: I have taken care of many types of pets since I was younger as well as always having pets of my own, from horses to fish! I am currently not working so available to give your pet my full attention! I also am able to be around to let them out multiple times day or night I have a small patio, but love right next to a forest which is perfect for walks and a large sports field perfect for a play!

About: I have had and loved dogs for all my life. From having just finished my rowing scholarship in the USA, I now want to delve into my other passions which is working with animals and animal care. My family has had purebreds from Rhodesian Ridgeback’s, Labradors, West Highland Terriers to rescues (that obviously are a whole range of breeds). We currently have two Romanian rescue dogs, Tora and Finn. They were both one year old when we got them and both had traumatic pasts. It has taken around a year for both of them to feel more settled and comfortable doing most things like even getting into a car. Thus, I have experience with dogs who have had a rough beginning. I am an active person and love going on hikes, jogs and camping trips with them. My favorite thing is to see any dog running around, tails up, happy and knowing I’m giving them a fun, adventure filled life that they deserve. I am available at the weekdays and weekends for walking, dog sitting and drop in visits. I am able to do longer hikes or jogs with your dogs too (if they are younger or high energy). If you leave them with me, they will have a great time, get some treats and will most likely come back to you tired and ready for a nap. I usually travel with my dogs in my dog seat cover / basket on my backseats. I will usually give my dogs treats occasionally throughout the day and probably yours too as well as making sure their water bowl is full. I will always chill with my dog too and play with them when they start getting their energy back. When I hike/ jog with my dogs, it will always be in a safe area and I usually try out new/different trails where I use an extender lead or let them off to explore (but, will obviously do whatever you would feel comfortable with in terms of on/off a lead). I will also adjust where I walk my dogs (or any dog) depending on the weather so, if it is hotter, I will usually walk them near a water source, forest or somewhere with shade. But, if it is cooler, I would more likely go to places like the ridgeway etc… where the sun would be a problem for longer walks. Your dog will most likely get muddy or wet on walks (with the crazy English weather) but, I always use towels to dry/ clean them up
