Cat Sitting Southend-on-Sea

“Myrin was so understanding and caring. She knew exactly what to do to help ease the anxiety of one my anxious cats and help medicate him. She kept me updated with how they are getting. 10/10 would recommend and use her services again. ”

“Rhiannon was amazing, I cannot recommend her enough and will hopefully be asking her to do drops in for me in the future! :) she was rapid at responding whilst I was away and was really communicative. Most importantly, she was really chill with my cat Aya who can honestly be quite mean sometimes! I so appreciated Rhiannon’s help and I fully trust her! :)”

“Very happy with Nicole who took great care of our Cat Dory who was really comfortable with her. Nicole updated us on all visits with pics and videos which assured us she was taken care of very well. Will definitely be booking Nicole again later this year.”

“Olivia was absolutely perfect! Very communicative and also extremely attentive to Coco! We came back from our holidays and Coco was extremely relaxed. Olivia even went beyond her tasks by doing some extra cleanup for us that was much appreciated! We would definitely recommend and request her again!”

“Alyss was amazing. Took super care of Ella, especially during the heat, and gave lots of updates and videos too! Highly recommend and will be in touch to use again in the future! Thank you Alyss”

“Michelle is such an incredible sitter! I have never felt relaxed about going away before and leaving my boys but knowing Michelle was coming in and seeing them really made the difference. My boys are getting older and don’t enjoy change, yet Michelle can cater to their quirks and care for them like we would. I would highly recommend booking with Michelle. She is clearly a real animal lover and it shows in every interaction and report card! Thank you so much for your care and attention Michelle! X”

About: 7 years experience ✅️ Hi, my name is Victoria. I am a pet sitter in Southend-on-Sea, Essex, close to the beach and surrounded by lots of beautiful parks and woods. From a young age, I have always loved animals of all kinds (sometimes more than humans🤭!). Growing up, we had cats, rabbits and hamsters at home, so animals have always been a big part of my life they bring me so much peace and happiness. When I got married, my husband and I welcomed a Beagle cross into our family from a puppy. We sadly had to rehome him when he was seven years old, which was a very difficult and heart breaking decision for us. As a family, we have always loved animals, and my son was especially gentle and caring with our dog, knowing when to play with him and when to give him his own space. I love exploring different places on my walks, whether that's the woods, the beach or beautiful country parks, so having a furry friend to enjoy these adventures with would be wonderful company. I’m a caring, reliable and genuinely animal-loving person, and I will always treat your pets as if they were my own. I love to give them lots of fuss, cuddles and attention, while also respecting their individual personalities and giving them space when they need it. I can offer flexible and personalised pet-sitting services to suit you and your pets, and I’m also happy to help with things such as flea and worming treatments if needed. For your peace of mind i am DBS CHECKED/FULLY INSURED/CPR & FIRST AID TRAINED. If you're looking for a pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and will give your pets plenty of love, care and attention, then feel free to get in touch - I’d love to hear from you! — I’d be very happy to chat about your pets and how I can help! Thank you, Victoria 🐾 I’m currently a stay-at-home mum, so I have lots of time, love and attention to give to an animal who needs it. I also drive and have an estate car with a large boot, so there’s plenty of room for dogs to travel safely and comfortably. I’m also available for drop-in pet visits, whether your pet needs feeding, some playtime, company, cuddles or just a little bit of attention while you’re out. Since rehoming our dog, I’ve really missed having a furry friend to take on walks, discovering new places to explore together and giving them all the love, care and attention they deserve. When we had our dog, we would go out every day and find somewhere new to explore, whether that was the beach, woods or country parks. He absolutely loved going on adventures, meeting other dogs and having lots of exciting new smells to investigate! I would really love the opportunity to share those walks and adventures with another dog and give them the same love and happiness that I gave to our own. 🐾❤️ We live in a spacious two-bedroom flat with access to a communal garden area. Pets are welcome on the beds and sofas — our dog used to sleep in bed with us, so we’re more than happy for your dog to do the same if they’re comfortable. I’m happy to administer flea and worming treatments if needed. We don’t currently have a crate, as we got rid of ours because our dog found it distressing, but I’m more than happy to use your crate if your dog is happy and comfortable being crated. Our dog suffered from severe separation anxiety, so I completely understand how difficult and stressful this can be for both dogs and their owners. I was unable to leave him alone, and he came everywhere with us. If your dog experiences separation anxiety, please be assured that I will not leave them alone and will do everything I can to make them feel safe, settled and comfortable. I can also provide home visits, including check-ins, walks, playtime and feeding, if that’s what your pet needs. 🐾

“Rebecca's been great. She kept us updated daily, which was very reassuring for us. I highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much for looking after our ginger boy.”

“I left wrong key of property and Jenny patiently helped me to sort out this problem by going somewhere else to collect a second key even though it passed our agreed 30 min booking. I’m very thankful for that! She kept me updated on every visit by photos and texts and was always on time.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have had my own dog for 3 years. I love all animals and am comfortable looking after them. I work from home and dictate my own schedule so I can be flexible when it comes to walking or dropping in on pets. I walk my own dog throughout the day too. I have a fenced garden and also a sensor light in the garden. My dog always has a collar on when leaving the house and I walk him with a harness and lead on at all times.

“Nicky is an incredible pet sitter! She looked after our 6 month old kitten for 10 days and we were given updates daily. It was lovely seeing so many pictures of Coconut while we were away! We’ll definitely be booking Nicky again! 💖”

“Claire updated me with pictures whilst I was away and kept me informed as to how the cats were doing (apologies again that Luna was a bit territorial!).I can't thank Claire enough, she put my mind at ease, especially as it was my first time using a cat sitter. The cats were well looked after and Claire was considerate and communicative throughout. ”

Love her dearly and she gets lots of love from us and attention and rewards us with lots of licks. I don't work so have plenty of time to walk and enjoy the love of walking dogs, and want dog walking to give me joy and exercise and help other dog owners that need and want help in walking their dog/s and pop-in services and care for their furry babies too. I am happy to walk two dogs if from the same owner, depending on breed and temperament. I drive so I am happy to drive to your home then walk your dog/s and care for them in their own homes. Providing we are both happy with each other and after an initial meet and greet with you and your dog/s I will will then accept the booking. I want you to be happy with me and visa versa and will always have you and your pets interest and care 100% of the time.

I love dogs and this is my love of what I do during the week days. I will make sure your garden is secure and more the surrounding area if walking your dog too.
