About Me
The Cherry Hinton Cat Sitter
Hi there! My name is Kate Fraser and I have lived in Cambridge for most of my life. I've been married to my wonderful husband for twenty years, who is also a cat lover! I first met him at the Welcome Trust Sanger Institute, where I worked for 21 years working in a variety of roles, including stem cell research. My profile picture was taken in a cat cafe we discovered in Lisbon while on holiday there. As a child my first experience of a family cat was a half feral but very handsome ginger cat. He was good at catching rats and loved to proudly display them on our front door step, although he always failed to catch a squirrel.......his life long nemesis! Smudge was the next cat that came to live with us, he liked to sit on my lap when I was playing the piano and sometimes tried to join in as well! These are just two of the cats I've been lucky enough to have in my life so far, but I will always have time for many more! So It would be a dream job and a privilege to pamper cats on a daily basis!. I also offer other services such as watering house plants, picking up mail, and I can take daily pictures of your pets and send them to you while on holiday to give you peace of mind.
I've had eight years experience of cat sitting now, and it's still love doing this job. If your cats are allowed I like to give them treasure hunts for treats. I also like to keep them entertained with their favourite toys and by playing hide and seek, which some cats enjoy! I will also give them plenty of hugs and pampering, if they want me to.

CambridgeBrilliant as always! Our cats were properly spolied at Christmas by Kate! Kate goes above and beyond - even coming back for extra visits to make sure our little cat is back in (she's too small to reach the cat flap!). We always know they are happy and safe with Kate when we're away.

CambridgeThis is the second time Kate has looked after our cat and we wouldn't want to use anyone else. She takes such good care of Peggy and always sends updates and photos. This time, she also had to administer medicine and it was a comfort to know that Peggy was in such safe and caring hands.

CambridgeKate clearly loves cats and our cat loves her back! She doesn’t only feed her, she spends time to play, cuddle and always sends lots of updates and pictures. We know Nessie is in very good hands when she’s with Kate and when we come back home she looks happy and relaxed as if we had never left. Kate is really perfect.

CambridgeKate was fantastic! She took good care of our cat during our week away and kept us updated each day with messages and photos. We felt secure in the knowledge that Peggy was in very good hands with someone who wasn't just being paid to feed her, but someone who genuinely cared. We came home to a very happy cat and can't recommend Kat highly enough!

CambridgeKate was perfect. It was easy to arrange a meeting before we left, and she gave us updates every day with loads of pictures when we were away, so we knew our cat was in great hands.

.Kate has taken care of my cat for 10 days. I was very worried to go for my holidays as my cat just had an unplanned surgery a couple of days before me leaving. Lucky we had Kate! She had to administer medicines for most of the time while I was away. She was very attentive, kept me informed (after every visit!) and quickly answered my questions. It was a pleasure to meet you, Kate. I came back home to find my cat healthy and happy. Thank you very much!
-

Kate sent regular updates and pictures and I it was really nice to see how she got to know the different character traits of both of the cats. Will book again next time we go away! Thanks Kate xxx

Daniel B
CambridgeKate looked after my cat for 9 days. She took great care of him, visiting him twice per day. She fed him exactly as we would and kept him happy with some playtime as well. It was a particularly hot week, so she gave him some garden time as he's an indoor cat and also made sure he had enough water. Plenty of photos and updates were given to give us piece of mind while we were away.
