Cat Sitting Waltham Forest

About: I love animals and love playing with them. I am careful, patient and responsive. Although I have not kept cat or dog, I have kept hamsters for 2 and a half years. I am currently non-employment. Therefore, I can take care of your pets very often, no matter on weekdays or weekends. Also, I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I can take care of the pets at pet owner's home. Yet, I need to have pre-site seeing before confirming the order. I need to know more about the pets.

“Alisa was absolutely wonderful with our cats. She was reliable, caring and kept us updated while we were away, which gave us real peace of mind. We’d happily ask Alisa to look after them again and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful cat sitter.”

About: Ever since growing up with my own golden retriever (Ellie), I've known that I always need to be in close proximity to a pet. More recently, I raised my parents' puppy during the pandemic and often dog sit for them. My flatmate also brought a cat into our London flat that I have helped to look after for the past two years so I have experience with both dogs and cats. Throughout my life, I have taken instruction well on how best to interact with others' pets (e.g., don't get them too excited, they need play time to feel comfortable with you) and always exercise patience. I wfh 4/5 weekdays and go into the office every Wednesday. The times I go into the office can be flexible as I don't have set times, and I am only 30 minutes away in case of emergencies. I'll spend a weekend with my parents' dog in the Midlands once a month, but then I'm in London for the rest of the time. It can be anxiety-inducing to trust a stranger with not only your pet, but your home. I promise to be understanding of your pet's needs, but also your needs. Whether that's needing regular updates or for things to be done a particular way, I will do my best to keep your space and routine as normal as possible.

“Ally was an amazing sitter once again. She kept us updated throughout the stay and kindly watered our garden through a heatwave! We came home to a very happy cat.”

“We are really delighted we found Ina, she takes great care of our beddy whippet Murphy and he absolutely adores her. He can be shy and nervous around new people, and knowing that Ina had a consultation with him first, which we appreciated. She's a natural with dogs and Murphy took to her straight away. She is caring, patient and calm and sent lots of photos throughout the day. Will be using Ina again and would recommend her to anyone.”

“Sophie kept me well informed by sending regular updates and photos. I returned home to 2 very happy and contented cats. Highly recommend and would be happy to have Sophie do our drop-ins again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the house so have many many years experience with caring for them and their many personalities. My mother is also a dog groomer so I’ve spent many days helping to care for the dogs. With a gentle tone and lots of playtime your little ones will feel right at home with me I’m currently working full time 9-5:30 in Hoxton, with one work from home day a week (I live in Turnpike Lane/Hornsey area). I work in a big sunny dog friendly office (so lots of furry friends about) with parks nearby and an outside space, so if you’re happy for me to bring your little one in with me during the daytimes I can do boarding full time. If you’d prefer me to stay at your place or for your little one not to be in the office, I can do boarding one single day during the week (I would work from home) and long weekends Fri-Mon (I would work from home Fri and Mon). I have plenty of time for morning, lunchtime, and evening walks, in and out of the office. My job is pretty flexible so I can definitely accommodate, just let me know what you need. My home is very secure, with two doors before the exit and a gate before you get to the road, which is pretty quiet and slow (speed bump are in place). I can easily crate your little one if needed, plenty of space.

About: I’ve always lived with multiple dogs and cared for many pets. Now living in London I finally have a dog of my own and he’s incredibly friendly and sociable and would love to have regular pals on walks and play dates. I work from home 3 days a week and my pup Comet gets 2 longer or 3 shorter walks a day locally (except in extreme lunch time heat) and at the weekends we stretch out further! I am happy to follow any instructions you set for your own home when dropping in on your cat/dog or collecting your dogs for walks.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover. I grew up with a golden retriever and a Maltese poodle, so dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I work from home full time, which means I’m always around and your dog will never be left alone for long (it genuinely breaks my heart to think of them waiting!). I love being active and outdoors, so they’ll always get a proper, exciting walk, not just a quick trip round the block. I’m equally happy with cuddles and playtime at home too. I’ve cared for all kinds of dogs across London: small dogs, puppies, big dogs, you name it and I treat every single one like my own. I work from home everyday and our flat has access to a private shared garden and we are only a short few minute walks away from gorgeous parks to run around and play. During the week, I work in 2-3 hour chunks with breaks at around 1130 and 2-3 pm, which is when I would walking the dogs. I typically spend the weekends outdoors or exploring London. We live in a building with many shared areas that are very dog friendly, we have an elevator which is great for dogs with bad hips or unable to walk up or down the stairs. Our apartment is spacious and there is a nice area for them to walk around and play, we also have a large community garden space on the roof and on the second floor with access to patches of grass and a place to run around.

“First time I left Casper and he was throughly looked after. Agustin followed all instructions left and Casper was content and unbothered by my return. I received photos and updates throughout the visits, which put me at ease. Thank you! Will definitely use again and recommend!”

About: I absolutely love caring for animals and always treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to get to know their personality and routines, so whether your pet is shy and gentle, full of beans, or needs a little extra patience, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities, from playful one-year-olds to senior dogs needing special attention. I’ve cared for blind dogs and pets with allergies, so I understand how important it is to be attentive to their unique health and comfort needs. I’m also comfortable administering medication if required, and always approach each furry friend with calmness and care. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, from the playful and affectionate Bernese Mountain Dog, to the high-energy and alert nature of hunting dogs like Pointers and Greyhounds, to the sweet (and sometimes stubborn!) personalities of smaller breeds like Beagles and Cavalier Spaniels. Each one has taught me something new, and I genuinely love getting to know their quirks and routines. If your pet is staying overnight, I’ll make sure you feel connected and reassured with regular updates, photos, and videos. I understand how hard it can be to leave your pets, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing they’re in caring, experienced hands. I’ve also worked as a sitter on other platforms and would be happy to provide references upon request. Caring for animals is not just something I do, it’s something I love. I can’t wait to meet your pet and give them the same level of care and affection I’d want for my own :) I work from home, so I’m very flexible and able to give your pet lots of attention throughout the day. I’m happy to host them at my home, where they’ll have a secure garden to enjoy and a calm space to relax in. If you’re away for a few days, I’ll follow their usual routine, including walk times, feeding, and any special needs, to keep things familiar and stress-free. You’ll also receive regular photo updates for peace of mind while you're away. Your pet will be welcomed into a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment. I don’t currently have any pets of my own, so they’ll have my full attention. Since I work from home, I’m around all day to keep them company, and they’ll also have access to a secure fenced garden for play and fresh air.

“Liv is a lovely sitter who has shown genuine care for my little puppy since the very first time meeting. It’s so re-assuring knowing that my dog will be looked after with great care and enthusiasm when I can’t be with her, and I get loads of updates from the time they spend together which is really nice.”

About: This is Lorena and Flavius! We are a millennial couple that work from home most days and are parents to a sweet, friendly Cockapoo. I’m a lifelong pet owner who grew up with a medium-sized Yorkie and a cat. Our Yorkie had a daughter that lived with my relatives and I also regularly cared for her. When I moved to London I didn’t want to have a pet of my own as I was still a student, so instead I started looking after friends’ pets whenever they went on holiday. After a few years my partner and I have finally brought a dog home, although we still enjoy caring for other furry friends! As pet owners, my partner and I understand well how important it is to have someone you can trust to look after your fur baby, so we are happy to make adjustments to make sure your pup has a safe, relaxed and happy time with us. Our pet, Amber, is an extremely friendly dog who has been socialised since she was very young and fully enjoys the company of other dogs. If your dog enjoys having a furry friend to play, this is the right place for you! Our flat is located right next to a dog park and we live close to a few big green areas in Walthamstow, so we’ll ensure your pet has plenty of walks and outdoor playtime. We are also a pet loving household, so we enjoy snuggling in bed and giving lots of cuddles throughout the day. If you think we’re a good fit for your pup feel free to get in touch - we’re happy to answer any questions! My partner and I work remotely most of the week. Because we have a dog of our own, there will always be someone at home to look after your pup. We walk and feed our dog three times a day, so caring for your pet will fit seamlessly into our daily routine. At home, dogs are welcome on the bed, rugs and couch. Whilst your fur baby is with us, we will provide constant supervision and attention to their every need. We are happy to observe rules and commands that are followed at your own home. Once with us, we will have regular walks in a trusted dog park. We will clean your pets’ paws after every walk and make sure we provide all care instructions (e.g., hair and teeth brushing as needed).

“Our cats loved Giovanna, she sent us lovely videos and we were surprised how much shy Hermione adored her! She played with them, fed and brushed them and we've returned to very happy cats, which is the biggest sign of a great cat sitter, we were in trouble last time we came home after using someone else! We'll definitely use her again and again”

About: My experience with pet care started years ago by spending time with friends’ dogs of all shapes and sizes. Since this spring (as I started working remotely), I’ve been dog sitting in London more regularly, which has given me the chance to spend meaningful time with different breeds (but mostly Cockapoos), personalities, and energy levels. I currently work from home 99.99% of the time, which means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs I care for. I am based in Walthamstow and there are a few nice parks around where I can bring your pup for a walk. For long stays, I am happy to go for 2-3 walks a day (morning, afternoon and evening). In terms of feeding, I would follow your instructions. Your pet will never be left alone - I’m always nearby to give them attention and care. I live in a three-room flat. We’re also lucky to have several lovely parks close by, perfect for daily walks and fresh-air adventures. I’ll happily keep you updated with photos as often as you’d like, and if I’m ever uncertain about anything, I’ll check in with you right away to make sure your pup’s routine and comfort are always prioritized.

“Great experience! This was the first time leaving our cat Dolores at home for a long weekend, and we booked Patrick for drop ins to take care of her. He didn’t disappoint! Communication was amazing and I highly recommend him to take care of your pets! He was super attentive, lovely and great with her! We came back home to a very happy girl. Thank you so much again!”

“Absolute 5 star sitter!! I needed last minute cover for someone to walk and feed my little dog and Eleanor was amazing. Very responsive and communicative, follow every instruction to the letter, and was accommodating and understanding when I left the key in the wrong place! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a responsible and caring sitter. Can’t wait to book again soon!”

Cassandra M.

“Freya was amazing . I would recommend her. My elderly cat was spoiled with cuddles and looked very happy. She was easy to communicate with, and I had no issues. I would definitely book again.”

Santa S.

“Margaret looked after my cat while I was away. She was very attentive and I can tell she is a real animal lover! My cat was in very safe hands, thank you Margaret.”

Isabella K.

“Rebecca is a wonderful kitty sitter. It was our first time and I was genuinely nervous. We got updates and photos practically at a similar time daily, which was so good to see and kept us peaceful that our boy was doing well. So grateful, thank you Rebecca! 😍”
