About Me

Mature Loving Cat Sitter Belsize, Hampstead, Primrose Hill and beyond,

'I have lived with many Zen masters — all of them cats.” Eckhart Tolle

Hello, my name's nikki and I'm a cat lover and cuddler living in Belsize Park Gardens NW3 4NA.

(For cat-sitting overnight I also travel further afield - you're welcome to be in touch).

I could not imagine my life without cats!

I've loved and 'looked after' cats since childhood and it's only in the last couple of years - and as I have been travelling - that I have been without my 'own' cats.

So, I've journeyed from kitten-hood into twilight years with cats. And, I have cherished, and with each cat (they are all so different!) all the joys, snuggles and pounces in-between :-)

I can help with:

  • Daily visits
  • Overnight stays
  • Other pet feeding, caring
  • Dog walking
  • Plant watering and garden care.
  • Post, deliveries, errands, home-care.
  • Vet trips, medications.

Whatever, is needed, to help look after your furry friends and home while you are away.

Areas nearest to me are Belsize Park, Swiss Cottage, Hampstead and Camden.

For daily visits I tend to visit places within walking distance of my home in Belsize Park Gardens - or, a short bus or tube hop.

Overnight stay prices vary, depending upon where you live. If you live further afield I would, wish to cover travel expenses.

For short overnight stays, I would tend to need to stay in NW3 areas, where I also work. I'm a writer, poet, naturalist, healer.

And, if you need a longer stay, then we can arrange a long-stay price.

Also - and separately to 'Cat in a Flat' I can accompany you to the vets or take your cat for you.

Growing up, our family had a ginger tom who I was convinced wanted to be a human. Bought as a stable cat, he, gradually, made his way into the house (often assisted!) and to lie in front of the fire.

And, as a younger woman I had a ginger female who would walk with me, more like a dog, and who later became deaf. And, also, a white younger cat who would kiss me nose - to - nose as she came in through the cat flap.

Just a little window on my cat loving life. And, I tend to support the street cats when I'm travelling too, and wherever I land e.g. India, Goa.

Look forward to meeting you and your feline friends. With warm wishes, cats are good at these! Nikki

    Nikki is absolutely incredible! Think cat whisperer; Mary Poppins; Jane Goodall. She is passionate about her work, and truly loves the cats she cared for. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

    Nikki was just amazing. She immediately built a rapport with our cat Oatmeal who is normally very shy. Nikki was very caring with Oatmeal, spent time to play with him, sent us regular updates and made sure that we came home to a happy cat. Couldn't recommend her more as a cat sitter!

    Nikki is the best! Our cat, Ella, loves when she comes over. Nikki sends updates and videos on every visit. She is very kind and reliable.

    Nikki was outstanding. Our cats were extremely well looked after and I think were disappointed when we came home. She kindly sent us photos of their contented faces every day when she popped round and left the place spotless. Thank you Nikki

    Nikki has been amazing with our cat and has really taken the time to get to know her and to build a relationship. The result is a very happy cat. Can’t recommend Nikki highly enough.

    I have known Nikki for over five years and wholeheartedly recommend her as a pet-sitter. She is a sweet and caring friend who brings laughter and tenderness to people's lives. I asked Nikki to cat sit for my for 10 days earlier this year and was totally delighted by her gentle care of our cats and our home. Nikki cares deeply about animals and cares for them according to their individual personalities. Our cats, who were young and still a bit nervous at the time of her holiday, where totally relaxed around her within a short time. She looked after them exactly as I'd asked her, and I totally trusted that my home was safe in her care. I fully recommend Nikki as a house-sitter and/or cat-sitter. I would recommend her to anyone looking for peace of mind while away from home.

    Nikki has stayed and looked after our cat many times. We have always felt very happy with the level of care and attention she has given our cat and home. We completely trust her and recommend her as she is such a gentle being and a real cat lover.
