Why My Cat Sitting Service Benefits Both Your Cat and You
As all cat owners know: “A house is not a home without a cat”. And you live in that home with the permission of your cat! If cats could speak, they would say; “I’m territorial. I love my home environment. Please don’t take me away from what I love!” Take a look at our article Why Cats Hate Catteries and you will appreciate why it makes total sense to have a trusted, professional cat sitter take care of your cat whilst it remains at home. That’s me!
Life is hectic these days and we all lead overloaded lives. This is why cat owners really appreciate my amazingly responsive service! Travel is often arranged at short notice and I go out of my way to help my customers in every way I can. My customers know that all that’s needed is for them to text or email before they leave - and I will then cater to their cat’s every whim! I will be its permanent and dedicated servant, friend, and companion until you return! This means that whilst you are away you have total peace of mind of knowing that your cat is safe, happy and enjoying total care. (I shouldn’t really say this) but your cat might not even miss you!
I will then spend time with your cat on a daily basis, and apart from sorting out the basic things such as food, water and litter trays, I will spend quality time with your cat. Depending on its age and temperament, this could be playtime, laptime or simply “chill” time. In short, I will do as much as I can to ensure that your cat is relaxed, happy and stress free. I am absolutely reliable and I will always do everything I can to help out my customers. For your security and peace of mind, I hold a basic disclosure (police check) and public liability insurance.
Whilst away, if you wish to extend your travel break, that’s fine. Send me a text or email and I will be happy to make more visits.

About me
I lived in London until about 11 years ago when I moved to Rickmansworth to be closer to nature.
My work for over 30 years has been in the corporate financial environment involving extensive travel around the UK, Europe and the USA to negotiate deals, provide product training and manage client relationships.
I have always loved animals and grew up with cats but as much of my working life involved travel I was reluctant to commit to having pets as I was concerned about the disruption to their lives every time I jetted off to my next assignment. Now that I am in the next phase of my life, I have finally taken the plunge. Nine years ago I became the proud and doting owner of a handsome grey horse named Talleyson and then about two years ago adopted 8 week old kittens, Darcy and Elsa.

If you are looking to give a needy cat a home, why don’t you contact the Three Rivers and Watford Branch of Cats Protection?
I have realized over recent years just how much I adored cats and that I was fascinated by cat talk and cat attitudes! Sharing my home with two gorgeous kittens was such fun. I laughed at their antics, felt strangely privileged when they sought out my company and was intrigued by their diversity.
I decided to look at ways to get involved with more cats and I came across the Home Loving Cats franchise business. I have now stepped back from the corporate life and I am fully launched into the cat world!
My animals give me such pleasure... I am a keen horse rider and do a lot with Talleyson, including riding out with like-minded friends in the lovely countryside and show jumping which Talley just loves. The yard where he is stabled is frequently visited by cats wild and cosseted, and all are welcome to me.
I have an affinity with cats, we get on, the photos above some of my feline family. Elsa and Darcy - my beautiful black kitties - are lively and inquisitive two-year old sisters who live with me, whilst Louis (above), the photogenic tabby/Bengal is a real charmer who deems to share his life with my sister and her family (including a bearded dragon called Demeter who I have rather warmed to!)
I love the outdoors, have reliable 4-wheel drive transport, so whatever the weather I can get out and about.
