About Me

Rachel's Cat Sitting Services. Based in Hyndburn.

Hi, my name is Rachel.

I have three adopted cats, my baby girl Binx (6), and Bobby (12).

I volunteer for a local charity, Cat Friends of Hyndburn, and have fostered 38 cats and kittens (including my Binx) until they found their forever homes, which was such a privilege and the most rewarding way to spend my time.

Binx and her family were actually feral when they were rescued. They stayed with me for 4.5 months, during which time I tamed Binx (and her sisters), so of course I had to keep her when her mum and sisters were adopted.

As a cat owner and fosterer I administer medication, make vet visits, and deal with challenging behaviour - including taming the aforementioned ferals! I realise cats often need time to accept new people, and as a pet owner, I know it can be stressful to leave your beloved pets in the care of someone else, so I'm more than happy to send daily photo and video updates of the cats in my care.

For these reasons I feel I'm well equipped to be a cat sitter, and look forward to turning my beloved hobby into a career and meeting some new feline friends.

I will give your cat all the cuddles, strokes and treats it desires (or doesn't desire, I know what cats are like!)

My prices have just been updated to reflect the increase in national minimum wage, transport costs, income tax and CatinaFlat fees.

    Absolutely fabulous service from Rachel ♥️ Reliable, on time, clear communication, and more importantly, very knowledgable about cat health and behaviour (long-term cat rescue volunteer). Wouldn’t use anyone else ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    I was very nervous about going away as I’ve never left the cats with anyone other than my mum before but Rachel has been fab. She visited beforehand to go through their routine and likes and dislikes and kept me updated the whole time with little updates. Thank you so much 😻

    Rachel was such a good cat sitter, it’s the first time I’ve had a cat sitter come to my house as I realised moving her around caused stress and my cat is very shy. I couldn’t have picked a better person. I got notified each time she went to my house and an update on my Juno. Rachel is very good with cats and I’ll be booking for my next trip away!

    Rachel loves cats and I knew that mine would be well cared for and he was. She even got a purr from him and as a rescue cat he is very wary of strangers.

    Rachel put my mind at ease about leaving my two cats while I went on holiday. She sent me pictures and videos and let me know how they were getting on each visit and I knew they were loving the attention she gave them.

    I couldn’t recommend Rachel enough! It’s the first time we have ever been away and not had a family member look after our cats and it’s something I’d now always do. Rachel messaged us after every visit to let us know how the cats were, she sent us regular photos and really put our minds at rest whilst we were away to know that they were being looked after. You can tell Rachel really loves cats and mine were looked after amazingly. I have really shy and timid cats and was really wary about leaving them with someone that didn’t know them but she worked her magic and ended up being best friends with them which is a victory with my little cats! Thank you so much Rachel, I would 10000000% use her service again!

    Just back from another short trip away, with Rachel looking after our 2 mogsters. Rachel sent us a reassuring message after every visit ( at our request) to let us know they were ok. Rachel clearly loves cats and looking after them, as each time they are both really chilled and happy. Cannot recommend Rachel , highly enough, it’s great having a cat sitter that we can trust .

    Once again we’ve come home to very chilled cats. One of ours, Polly is frightened of her own shadow, she’s that timid and yet when Rachel has been looking after them, she’s so relaxed when we get home! If you’re looking for a cat sitter that genuinely loves cats, look no further, Rachel is brilliant.

    Just got back from another week away, with Rachel looking after our cats, Polly and Dinky again. It was just, lovely to come home to 2 extremely chilled mogsters, even our very nervous, timid Polly has been rolling about on her back! Thanks again Rachel, you’re a star 🌟

    This was the first time that Rachel looked after Polly and Dinky for us and it certainly won’t be the last! Rachel is really friendly, helpful and clearly loves cats. She has sent us a text after each visit ( as we requested) and we’ve come home to chilled cats. Definitely recommend. Thanks so much Rachel
