About Me

Cat loving (of course!) Public Health Specialist and Professional Life /Work Coach.

I work full time at Scotland's national public health organisation leading on a public health approach to climate and sustainable environments. I also have a private business as a life/work coach.

I’m currently living with a rather clingy but adorable Ragdoll called Max. As a confirmed cat lover I can't get enough of them and just love meeting new cats and trying out my cat whispering skills and that is why I do cat sitting (but don't tell Max...!).

I’ve lived with various cats most of my adult life and so I know different temperaments can require very different approaches.

I’m a big believer in what you put in you get out with cats.

Where wanted by your cat I will give chin or ear rubs and other cuddles as well as stimulating play if they are in the mood. And a good chinwag too if they are up for it!

Of course, I’ll do all the necessary litter changes, food and water.

I’m a houseplant lover (it's pretty bad...40 and counting!) so can tend to any plants. I'm happy to discuss any other small chores you’d like done like that, dependant on the time needed to prioritise cat care.

If for any reason I am incapacitated my partner Paul can step in. Paul is also a confirmed cat lover with extensive experience with different cats. Paul is retired from Ford Motors where he was a Finance Director.

    This was the first time Emma had looked after my 2 boys. I shall certainly use her again if she is free. She has a deep understanding of cats' behaviour and problems and I felt happy leaving my poorly cat in her care.

    Emma’s communication was excellent throughout. She sent lots of nice pictures of my girls playing and having cuddles with her, and left the flat nice and clean. Would definitely recommend her as a cat sitter, and would love if she wanted to look after my two again. Thanks Emma!

    Emma took the time to understand our cats' needs and preferences and engage them in play each day. We were kept updated with photos and the cats were happy and relaxed when we got home. We'd be happy to book with Emma again.

    Emma is an excellent sitter. Frank was happy and healthy on our return as usual.

    We can highly recommend Emma; she bonded with Frank immediately and in no time they were old friends. We returned home to a happy, healthy cat. We won’t hesitate to ask her to cat sit again.?

    Emma was absolutely fantastic! She immediately bonded with both of our cats and we left them knowing they would be well looked after. We received regular updates and photos - and we think that our cats would have been happy if we had stayed away for longer!
