About Me

Cat Sitter for Mold/Wrexham/Chester/EllesmerePort areas

I'm a 28 year old woman who currently self employed as a street performer, this gives me excellent flexibility when it comes to caring for your pets. I have an extreme love of cats (with a particular soft spot for black cats) and will do whatever I can to take care of them no matter what their needs are, I'm patient, reliable, pay close attention to the needs and signals of a cat, and I can also cope well with shy cats and cats with particular needs.

I have owned a cat for over ten years, every cat I have loved has come from a shelter and had many issues or quirks due to their previous experiences. I am patient when working with these types of cats and am well versed in cat behaviour so I can read their signals when they wish for me to back off or if they are in need of something.

I have dealt with cat scratches and bites over the years and know how to properly treat them to save them from infection. Despite my day to day Gothic appearance I really am nice to know, I care greatly for animals and have also taken care of dogs, so if you have any other pets along with your kitty, I'll be more than happy to care for them.

I have volunteered at my Grandmother's animal shelter in New Zealand years ago so I am sufficient in caring for animals, even when there are a lot of them. Any animal big or small, young or old, I can care for. I have also volunteered with helping charities raise money and used my many artistic skills to help do this.

I have had experience in caring for my own cat who had Hyper-Thyroid, I was tasked with giving her medication daily until she passed from natural causes. Because of this experience I am capable of giving medication to a cat, even if it is a struggle (which it often is). 😆

1 VISIT is usually an hour spent with the kitty/kitties so they can have some company either up close with cuddles or from afar if they are a bit more nervous. During this time I will play, feed, clean litter, as well as groom your cat if they need it. 2 VISITS is much like the first visit but includes both morning and evening feedings and I will spend a total of 2 hours with your beloved pet/s OVERNIGHT visits are ideal for any cat with anxious attachments as well as cats with more intensive needs, often with overnight visits I stay the whole day and night with your pet unless I have to pop out for other visits.

Whatever you and your cat(s) need (or wants) are, I will do my utmost best to deliver!

I am perfectly happy to go beyond 5km of my catchment area, (if there is easy public transport) I hope you find me a good candidate for caring for your furry friend(s)!

Hope to hear from you soon!

    Ellena has gone above and beyond in every way! Our 1yo cat utterly adored her. Ellena was a reassuring and friendly face for the cat.

    Ellena sent thorough updates every visit, was timely and always on hand.

    I couldn't recommend Ellena's services enough.

    Thank you very much! ✨️✨️✨️✨️

    Ellena has looked after Tinker & Luna a few times now. The cats are happy which makes me happy. This time Ellena was flexible when I had to unexpectedly ask for an additional visit.

    Ellena is absolutely AMAZING!!!! It’s our first time having someone to look after our fur baby and we’re so glad we chose Ellena. Our cat absolutely adored her and she did the most amazing job! We’ve already booked her in for our next trip away and wouldn’t have anyone else, she really is outstanding! Thank you so much Ellena!

    I'd been apprehensive about having a cat sitter come into my home but Ellena was highly recommended to me by a colleague. Ellena has just looked after my fur babies for a few days and I couldn't be happier with her communication and care for the cats. The cats certainly seem to have had fun with her! I'll be using Ellena in future over the cattery.

    Ellena was amazing with Harry as always. I really appreciate her making the effort to come and see him even though she was pretty ill and didn't feel great. Excellent updates as always, and she really takes the best pictures of him in action. Thank you so much for being wonderful to both of us again!

    Ellena was everything we could have hoped for in a cat sitter and we are very fussy. She is a natural communicator with cats, respectful, attentive, genuine and thorough. Excellent, prompt communication with us throughout and I felt so reassured from the numerous photos and videos we received. I can't wait to use her services again.

    I was very anxious about going away and leaving my cat for a week but was completely reassured by all the pictures and videos of Kelso that Ellena sent to me. Ellena travelled to meet Kelso and me before I went away, which I really appreciated. When I returned, Kelso was so relaxed and happy. The peace of mind was priceless, thank you Ellena.

    Absolutely flawless. We were kept in the loop with how our three furballs were getting on without us for a few days. It’s the first time that we’ve felt happy enough to leave them in the care of someone else, thank you Ellena!

    Yet again Ellena looked after our kitties with love and care as if they were her own. Actually I think Molly would like to be adopted by her all those bed cuddles xxx not long before our next trip away. It is so lovely to know the cats are happy while we are away. Xx

    Yet again Ellena made sure our kitties were happy and content and left the house immaculate. She also had to deal with some unpleasant litter trays as little Molly had an upset tummy for the first 2 days. Lots of photos and updates while we were away so we could see they were fine.

    Elena has been amazing from the get go! Her clear communication and kind nature has made one very anxious cat mum feel at ease! She really made an effort to build trust with Harry who can be a bit shy and standoffish. The updates she sent are so appreciated and I came home to a very settled and relaxed boy! We will be booking with her again :)

    Would definitely recommend! From start to finish, Ellena has been absolutely brilliant, and shown she is both knowledgeable and considerate with our cats.

    Ellena was amazing and communication, letting me know when she was going to see my cats. She sent loads of pictures and videos which really helped me relax on holiday! She followed instructions really easily and fed my cats two different diets (one is on diet food!). Couldn't recommend Ellena more really!! Came home to two well looked after cats :D

    I've never trusted anyone with my boys before as much as I trust Ellena!!! For the first time me and my partner managed to fully enjoy our holiday without worry if the cats were being well looked after. Ellena had kept us updated with pictures and videos and even took care of our plants! now we wouldn't trust anyone else xx

    Ellena was just amazing looking after our cat babies in June 23. Molly had a ball snuggling up on the bed every day with Ellena and even Barney, a very nervy cat, didn't take long to relax and settle in her company. Ellena also stayed a few nights and was the perfect house guest, clean and tidy.

    Ellena has spent most of the past 4 weeks looking after our kitty due to 3 bookings close together!! We have returned home to a happy, healthy, content cat and we are so grateful to Ellena once again for her care of Niyah. Ellena's photos and video updates every day were lovely to keep us up to date with Niyah's daily activities. Thanks again!

    Our very happy cat says a big thank you to Ellena for a lovely weekend of her company again...and a big thank you from us too! We have once again come home to a very content cat 😸 (and she clearly hadn't missed us after spending the weekend with her best friend!!). We love the photo and video updates so we know what Niyah is up to whilst we are away! A very well looked after cat and house...as always, thank you Ellena ☺️ x

    Ellena is awesome. We were a little nervous to leave Hildie for the first time but Ellena put our mind at ease instantly after meeting her. She is fantastic with cats (they love her!). We were regularly sent adorable photos of Hildie and given updates throughout our trip.

    We came back to a very happy and chilled out cat - I can't recommend her enough!

    Ellena stayed with our cat for a week whilst we were on holiday and her daily updates were so reassuring- Niyah is so comfortable around Ellena and greets her like an old friend. Super happy cat and fur-parents once again. And it's also nice to know the house is well looked after whilst we are away too! Thank you Ellena.

    Ellena has just spent the weekend with our cat, Niyah, and once again we have come home to a happy, relaxed cat and a spotless house. And we received regular video updates of what Niyah was getting up to, which was lovely to hear her little meow whilst we were away. We are already booked in again for a few weeks time with Ellena- very highly recommended, I don't know what we'd do without her as our cat sitter!!

    Ellena has just stayed with our cat, Niyah, for a couple of nights and once again, we have come home to a happy, content furbaby. Ellena is great at keeping in contact with photos and videos of Niyah which is really comforting to know she is ok whilst we are away. It was so nice to see that Niyah remembered Ellena and has no worries about climbing all over her to wake her up for breakfast like she does with us! Definite friends for life! Thank you again Ellena!

    Ellena has just stayed with our cat for 3 nights and I honestly can't praise her enough. We have come home to a happy, relaxed cat, who doesn't usually take too kindly to change. From our first meeting, Ellena has been professional and attentive to Niyah's needs, to ensure that the time we would be away was not disruptive to Niyah's regular routine. She is also very friendly and flexible to our needs. Our cat is a rescue and doesn't like to be fussed straight away by a new person. Ellena knew how to approach this and let Niyah come to her, and by the end of the 4 days, they were good friends (as seen in our lovely video and picture updates...which made us smile being able to see her being her usual self whilst we were away). I would recommend Ellena to absolutely anyone needing care for their cat, as we came back to a happy, well looked after kitty (and super tidy house). We will definitely be contacting Ellena again for future holidays.
