Cat Sitters in Braithwell

Naraya

Naraya stayed for five weeks while I was away. From our first meeting online I recognised she would be a great fit for my home and cat, Oak. All pre-stay communications went smoothly and when Naraya arrived I felt instantly assured that her stay would work well. Naraya is a genuine soul who clearly cares deeply about the animal friends she cares for and the home she is taking care of. She kept me updated about home and Oak and it was wonderful to feel so assured he was in good hands. Clearly they bonded very soon after Naraya's arrival and it was great to see photos periodically of a very happy and relaxed cat! The stay went pretty smoothly and Naraya would always be in contact if she needed to check anything with me. I arrived home to a clean and tidy home and evidently well-cared for and happy cat! Would heartily recommend Naraya for any housesits.

Tanya

Tanya is a wonderful house and pet sitter - I can’t recommend her highly enough. She stays in touch and is totally reliable and considerate, leaving our home absolutely immaculate and Missy a very happy cat! This is the second time Tanya has housesat for us and I hope she’ll be able to fit us in again!

Jen

From the moment we met Jen and watched her interact with our dogs we knew they were in safe hands. Jen kept us up to date with lots of photos and messages and clearly quickly grasped their very individual characters. She met each of their needs at their level and it was clear that they adored her. Would definitely have her back anytime!

Ellyssa

Where do I start!? From day one, I knew Ellyssa was the right person to look after our girls. She was extremely easy to get on with, and she most definitely speaks cat and is a true cat person! She managed to bond with our super shy Muffin and is the first person (besides us two) that has gotten her on her lap- we were gobsmacked! She is very approachable, self-sufficient, and easy going, which we really appreciated! It was clear she adored cats, the girls were obviously very taken with her and well looked after, which for us is the main thing! If she wanted to come back and sit for us again we'd definitely have her back in a heartbeat- if she applies for your sit, don't hesitate to snap her up!

Bay

Bay looked after our 1 year old cat Derek for the weekend. She was extremely organised and reliable. We had the pleasure of meeting her before we left and we knew Derek would be in good company. Bay kept us updated with photos of Derek whilst we were away and we returned to a tidy home and a happy kitkat 😊

Amy

Amy was amazing with merlin and he instantly took a shine to her. He even slept with her when I came home. Her communication was flawless and I got updates throughout. The house was left clean and tidy and she went above and beyond when I arrived back late. Thanks so much and I'm sure Merlin misses you

Gill & Stephen

Gil and Steve were amazing taking care of Bella. They have become her second parents. She had such a great time exploring with them and I always loved the pictures they sent. It was nice to come home to a clean house and both of them meeting us at the door. We have new friends and hope we see them again here in the UK.

Isobel & St

Isobel & StJohn, we're reliable, punctual, friendly, naturally affectionate with my hounds, and kept me up to date when I was away. I felt my furbabies were in capable hands. They were patient when listening to the instructions for how to manage Bumble n Scooch and quite self-sufficient.

carin

Carin was absolutely AMAZING, from the beginning to the end 100% reliable and professional, she had taken care of our kitten of 5 months, Dolce and he absolutely loved her. Cari sent us daily updates while we were on our holiday, we trusted her straight away and she had created a very strong bond with Dolce and ourselves. On top of that she took excellent care of our flat, everything was so tidy and perfectly clean when we returned. Carin is a really adorable person and I can’t be more grateful to had found her to take care and trust with our kitten and my flat. We would definitely have her again and I really highly recommend her to anyone that is looking for a trustable, caring, sweet person to take care of their pets and homes. Thanks again Carin for helping me with our kitten Dolce.

Oksana

Oksana, Zoe and Sophia were amazing with our dogs and pet mouse. We could tell right away that they are animal lovers and are so friendly. They contacted us to let us know how the pets were regularly and Mollie and Orlando seemed to really enjoy their company. Mollie can be very scared at times and they handled her very well. The apartment was very clean and tidy when we got back and they even left us a lovely note and box of chocolates. Would definitely recommend.

Miriam

Miriam was so kind and caring as a petsitter for my rabbit, Custard, who was still recovering from a quite serious medical condition when she arrived to begin the sit. It was so reassuring to be kept regularly up to date with Custard's health improvement whilst I was on holiday with videos and messages and I returned to find my little foster bunny in much better health and know that's down to the time and love Miriam gave to her around her own working commitments. The house was in a very clean and tidy condition too and Miriam agreed to stay on an extra night when my flight back was delayed so all in all, what an absolute pleasure to have Miriam as my second zeewoi sitter. 100% recommend. Thanks Miriam ❤️

Colin

Kate

Bridget is a calm and charming lady who was an instant hit with our two cats. She is naturally gentle and caring and they sensed this immediately. She was also lovely with our lone,elderly chicken and made the effort to be with her every day she was here. She listened carefully to all my instructions and read everything thoroughly, checking with us if there was anything she didn’t know or understand. She is responsible and practical with a pragmatic and efficient approach to every aspect of the situation. I had no concerns whilst away as I knew the cats and chicken were in very good hands. We kept in touch and were pleased to see the pictures Bridget sent. She is  also extremely flexible  and adaptable, we had to ask her to help us with some information we had left at home and she was very happy to help. She watered the pot vegetables and we came home to a clean house and happy animals who had clearly enjoyed their time with her. It was a pleasure to meet you Bridget, thank you, I do hope you can come again I know the cats and chicken would be delighted!
If Bridget applies for your sit don’t delay confirmation she is too good to miss!

Louise

Katie was an excellent sitter for our cat Tibby. She was friendly and helpful. Tibby warmed to her immediately. Very pleased.
