About Me

Cat sitter in London

I've always been surrounded by cats, since I was born. At one point we had 4 cats at the same time. Since I've moved out of my parents' home a few years ago I haven't been able to have my own kitty, but have regularly looked after my friend's cats when they went on holiday. Since January 2017 I actually caved and finally got myself a cat! She's a beautiful oriental shorthair called Nimue and full of mischief. In 2013 I volunteered at a Cheetah Conservation Camp in South Africa for 4 weeks. It was such an amazing experience to work with those big cats. They also had two Servals, a Caracal and two house cats that I looked after. I really miss being around animals and as I work freelance I thought I'd spend some of my time cat sitting. I've met so many different characters of cats, so I promise yours will be in good hands with me :) I have experience with shy and anxious cats and will generally let them approach me when they're ready rather than overwhelming them.

    Rica took such good care of Mac - and kept her comfortable and cool in the heat!

    I’d happily ask Rica to cat sit again! She was great with my nervous cats, good at communicating, and sent me updates whilst I was away. I came back to two very happy cats. Thank you!

    As always, absolute five star service from Rica - kitty was well looked after and Rica sent a couple of pics of kitty licking her chops after a delicious feed! Our cat has a new best friend.

    Rica helped us out with a last minute booking. She was very kind and looked after our cat over a few days, he was very happy and clean on our return. Will be booking again! Thankyou Rica.

    Excellent kitty-sitting from Rica; she was easy to get in contact with, flexible with times and gave our cat the all-star treatment. She sent pictures so we could see kitty was eating ok and have her lots of attention and care. We arrived home to a very happy cat! Many thanks Rica!

    Rica is friendly, reliable, reassuring and obviously loves spending time with cats. She sent us daily updates from her visits to Bruce whilst we were on holiday, with real attention to detail. We couldn’t have found a better cat sitter. Thank you from us and from Bruce who is going to miss your daily belly rubs!

    Rica looked after our two cats brilliantly over a long weekend. It was a last minute trip but she responded to messages and arranged to collect keys very efficiently. Both cats seemed very relaxed and well looked after on our return and we received daily updates with photos while we were away. I would definitely use her again and recommend her to other users.
