About Me

Cat sitter in London

Retired.I've always had a cat in my life so i reckon i understand their ways.I lost Fred,a ginger tom rescue, in February 2015 so me signing up to cat sit would do me, and you, a favour.

The areas i cover are Blackheath, Charlton and Kidbrooke.

If selected,i would like to meet you and your furry friend, for about 30 minutes,a couple of days before you go away so as not to scare him/her on my first visit.

Any money i get from doing this will be donated to Battersea Dogs and Cats Home in Fred's memory.

Hope to hear from you soon.

PS If you're on Facebook, friend me, as i like to post at least one photo per day of my "clients". I'm Barry Marsh, the one with a camera in front of my face. If not, i will send you a daily SMS text message anyway.

    Barry has looked after my cats many times now and last week, as ever, he took great care of them and left the house very tidy.

    Barry very kindly sends me a summary email of their exploits, because I am not on Facebook, which is very kind and going above and beyond what I would expect.

    Many thanks Barry 😊

    We came home to a VERY happy cat! Barry was great with keeping us up to date with how Scout was getting on and sent us photos and little written updates which were like mini adventure stories (which we loved reading). We look forward to having him look after our bundle of fluff again soon!

    Hi there, We left our Findus in Barry’s good hands for two weeks while on holiday. Barry took great care of him and made us part of the whole process trough his daily updates/stories and amazing pictures! Findus has never had better and more numerous pictures taken of him-credit to Barry (shame on us) ever! And the stories accompanying the pics were real pleasure to read. Ended up our friends asking daily to read Barry's update. Sooo sweet. Barry has an amazing understanding of and affection for cats. When we came back we found one very happy, relaxed, non complaining Findus. We are actually looking forward to leaving him in Barry’s care again and would full heartedly recommend his services to anyone! Kind regards, Luke and Nadia

    Barry was kind enough to take our Aggie in for a week over the Christmas holiday and took the very best care of her. To be honest, I’m not sure she wanted to leave. Barry kept us updated with photos and video clips daily. Barry truly is the very best.

    Barry has been wonderful with my two boys! They've been very spoiled for the whole week and they accepted him very well into their space.

    I have very much enjoyed the daily updates and I knew they were safe while I was away.

    I definitely recommend him :)

    Barry is very accommodating, reliable and attentive with our cat when we go away. He updates daily with what they've done during the visit and sends pictures. I think Bubbles has more fun when he's there, than when we are!

    Barry went above and beyond looking after our two rescue cats, who are still quite timid - he showed a lot of patience. Extremely reliable, he texted us regularly while we were away, which was very reassuring. The cats are happy, and so are we. Highly recommended.

    Barry has been looking after Peppa and Leo a few times now and has always done an amazing job. Barry is reliable, great with cats and keeps us updated with photos while we are away. Whenever we need a cat sitter, Barry is our first choice!

    Barry did an excellent job. He kept us regularly updated and managed to make friends with our nervous cat. He even left us fresh milk on our return so we could have a nice cup of tea! Would definitely use him again.
