About Me

Taco Cat Sitting | Specialised Care For your Furry Friend

Hi there! My name is Laura and I have been working in cat care for the past 10 years. From petsitting to rescue work to behavioural care, I have navigated a myriad of feline-friendly spaces and accumulated cuddles, scratches and a good dose of knowledge!

I specialise in senior and disabled cat care but as a flexible, experienced sitter I should be able to accommodate whatever needs your kitty may have! I am also the happy guardian of a blind kitten and have learnt to adapt playing, feeding and handling strategies for all different kinds of furry friends.

I have flexible hours and a lot of patience and love to give!

Please note: for health reasons, I cannot take on clients who smoke in the home

    Laura was excellent! We came home to a very happy, very relaxed cat. Laura sent photos every day to put our mind at ease and came to visit before the booking to ask all the right questions! 100% recommended, will be booking Laura again!

    Laura is fantastic! My senior cat is very shy but she warmed up to Laura from the minute she saw her! Laura was great in communicating updates and letting me know how my cat was doing. I did not have to worry about a single thing when i was away on my trip. I came back home to find my cat happy and relaxed. Laura thank you. You are awesome!

    Repeat booking with Laura, as she did such an outstanding job the first time.

    Laura is incredibly conscientious and took such good care of Lexi.

    Communication was brilliant and we could enjoy our break knowing Lexi was happy and well cared for.

    100% recommend her services!

    Laura did a great job of looking after our ragdolls as always. She even got our female ragdoll to eat more pate by mixing it with cat milk which we never even thought of. We got home to two very happy and well looked after cats :).

    Laura was fantastic. She even managed to administer medication to our boy who is notoriously difficult to treat without having two people present. She sent us daily updates and played with them to tire them out. She even tidied up the litter tray areas and food areas before we got back which we really appreciated. Would definitely recommend Laura.

    We couldn’t be any happier! Laura has done a fantastic job looking after our cats, they had lots of play & cuddle time. Laura has treated the house and all our pets as if they were her own. Do not hesitate to get in touch with her if you’re looking for a great, reliable cat sitter. Our cats loved her! Would give 10 stars if we could ☺️

    Laura was excellent - she kept us regularly updated with photos and videos and our cats were very relaxed and happy upon our return. Our cats have a very specific routine so we appreciated all of the effort Laura put in to make sure they were properly looked after. We'll definitely be booking Laura again.

    Laura is fab! She spent lots of time with Archie and sent us regular updates while we were away. This was the first time we'd been away for any length of time post-pandemic, but she made sure it went smoothly for us and Arch. Thanks Laura!

    Fabulous as always, our fluffy girl was settled again when we returned, having clearly been given lots of attention, whereas before we found Laura she used to be clearly stressed by us being away. It's wonderful to have found her!

    Laura was brilliant with Marnie and Ollie, I felt really confident that they were in good hands. She spent time with them on her visits including play time and brushing and sent regular updates. I came home to two very calm and happy kitties. Very pleased.

    I can't sing Laura's praises high enough. This was my first time using this service and I was nervous but I preferred the idea of my cat being at home than boarding. Meeting Laura put my mind at ease that I had made the right decision. She is professional and clearly understands how to care for and loves cats.

    Laura was great with our old and blind cat and kept us up to date throughout our break. Laura is a cat care professional so its nice to know he was in safe hands if anything was to go wrong. Would not hesitate to recommend to other cat owners.

    Laura took excellent care of our two cats. She was happy to provide for the (kind of) special dietary needs of one of them and took the time to coax out the shyer one. Both kitties were super relaxed and happy when we came home. Thanks to Lauras regular updates we felt completely reassured during our time away. :-)

    Exceptional! I give 5 stars only because this app does not allows more. Momo and Lua loved her!! To be honest, Momo loves everybody, but to get Lua's love... that requires effort and dedication! We will call her again next time we travel. Bonuses: Watered plants and left house clean and tidy.

    Laura’s biog says she is studying for a PhD. I would not be surprised if she told me her PhD was in cat sitting!

    Cats are masters of bad timing, so when little Lexi got sick a few days before we went on holiday, we were worried about leaving her with a sitter. That was before we met Laura!

    She took Lexi’s medication and toilet issues in her stride and gave us plenty of reassurance whilst we were away, that all was well at home. We returned to a happy, healthy kitty.

    Laura is such a kind, caring and conscientious cat sitter. I definitely recommend her services!

    Laura did an amazing job of looking after our cat Pickles. She was very communicative, reliable and knowledgeable about cats! As new cat owners she gave us lots of useful advice. Pickles already misses her so we will definitely be booking Laura again!

    Laura is clearly a compassionate lover of cats. She has taken marvelous care of my Princess Awesome, and Princess in turn seems to have bonded and loved her company! Laura is sweet, responsible, and kept in contact every day with photographs. Would absolutely have Laura in my home again.
