🐱 About Me 🐱

I’ve shared my life with animals for as long as I can remember and have been caring for cats, dogs, and other beloved pets in their own homes for more than five years.

I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. My goal is always to help animals feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Every pet has their own personality, preferences, and routine, and I take the time to get to know what makes them feel most at ease.

Whether your pet enjoys energetic play sessions, brushing, cuddles on the couch, quiet companionship, or simply having someone nearby, I tailor my care to suit their individual needs and follow their usual routine as closely as possible.

I work from home as an author, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and spend meaningful time with the animals in my care. When house sitting, I genuinely enjoy sharing my day with pets while I work, providing a calm and consistent presence that helps them feel settled and secure.

🐈 Senior Cat & Specialist Cat Care 🐈

I specialise in cat sitting, particularly caring for senior cats and shy, anxious, or timid cats who benefit from gentle, patient care.

A typical cat visit may include:

• Feeding and fresh water

• Cleaning litter trays

• Administering oral medication if required

• Playtime and enrichment

• Grooming or brushing

• General wellbeing checks

• Affection and companionship tailored to your cat’s personality

• Photo updates so you can stay connected while you’re away

There’s something special about caring for pets in the place where they feel happiest and most secure. I love building trust at each animal’s own pace and creating a calm, positive experience for both pets and their humans.

💞 Testimonial 💞

“Rae has looked after my two cats several times. They are reliable, punctual, and a good communicator. Rae spent time with my cats and sent me photo updates every day for my peace of mind. I recommend them without hesitation." — Jesse
