About Me

Reliable cat-sitter in Newhaven

My availability is limited at the moment but I will always try my best to accommodate existing clients - please message me if you don't see the dates you need! Unfortunately, I can only accommodate new clients who are within walking distance at the moment.

Hi, I'm Laura! I'm a former civil servant turned mature student, working on a PhD in mathematical modelling. I'd love to take care of your cat(s) during my free time!

I've always had cats in my life ever since childhood so have experience with lots of different cat-personalities. My current cat, Teddy, was a rescue cat I adopted while living in France who has now settled into Edinburgh life! I've used some great cat-sitters for him when I've needed to go away and I know how important it is to have a trusted, reliable sitter.

I tailor my care to your cat's needs, whether they like lots of play and cuddles or prefer to do their own thing. Food, water and litter tray cleaning will always be provided with lots of care and attention. I can also water your plants or take care of other small pets.

Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you'd like to chat about your cat care needs!

    If I could give more than 5* I would. Laura has really bonded with our cats and this helps enormously putting our minds at rest.

    Once again Laura was fantastic with our cats. The updates she sends really help us relax and enjoy our time away in the knowledge that our girls are being well looked after.

    Laura was reliable, sent lots of updates and pictures of old Mr Tom and considering he is not too fond of people, he seemed to trust her pretty quickly.

    Laura is a reliable and professional cat sitter. It is not the first time we used her services, and won’t be last. We received updates about our cat after each visit, and cat seemed happy on our return.

    Laura is the perfect catty godmother. Reliable and considerate in all aspects. She is excellent at providing updates and photos of the cats as well as administering cuddles and playtime. A hit with us and the cats and we'll definitely be using her services again. Thank you Laura.

    Laura is amazing as always and even though my kitty had not seen her for long was quickly happy to get all the cuddles and love. My fur-baby gets a lot of medicine and inhaler and Laura manages them without any problem like she does it every day for my boy. She is very professional and an amazing person you can trust your babies with.

    Laura looked after our cat while we were away for a week. It was first time we left our cat for so long. Laura took good care of him, sending updates and photos after each visit. Cat bonded with Laura, and seemed happy when we came back. We would recommend Laura and will use her again for cat sitting in the future.

    Laura was amazing as always. She sends beautiful messages pics and videos about your furbaby that is so reassuring that you know your baby is well looked after. There is always the guilt of leaving my boy home but Laura helps always to ease it out. Coming back to a relaxed baby is such a nice feeling.

    Laura met us for one visit before and this tome walked straight in to our furbaby’s room and gave medicines and inhaler. We are not yet on holiday but I needed to train as my baby gets a bit of medication and it could be tricky and we will be away for 3 weeks. 10/10… Laura is calm and superb with anxious kitties

    Absolutely wonderful sitter. Laura was gracious enough to help me with my last-minute request, and the cats clearly loved having her. She sent pictures every day and let me know how they were, which was wonderful for my peace of mind, and I could tell the cats were warming up to her and loving the attention.

    Laura was so wonderful and made us feel reassured leaving our cats for 3 weeks. She sent us pictures and updates on them every day and made sure they were looked after. She also informed us immediately of a potential eye problem in one of our cats and proceeded to clean their eye daily thereafter. She also kept our plants alive. Thanks again Laura!

    Did a brilliant job at looking after Whisper and keeping me up to date on things. He's a very timid boy but was out visiting Laura by the end which speak volumes. Really happy with everything

    I highly recommend Laura she was amazing with our cats🙌 Bella and smokey are both indoor cats and they have not been used to visitors for awhile now. To our delight, both Cats did not hide away when Laura first visited to meet them, which is quite rare! We received daily updates and photos of the cats which was so comforting to see :) And returned to a happy pair 🐈 🐈 Thankyou Laura, we will definitely be in contact with you for any future cat sitting😻

    Laura was absolutely wonderful. One of our two is very shy and doesn’t say hello to new people. Within minutes she was out eyeing up Laura and after only a day was playing and interacting.

    We got regular updates, and everything was perfect!
