About Me

Your cat's new best friend in Palmers Green

Please note that I’m not currently taking on any new clients. Sorry for any inconvenience caused

I'm Sam, hi! I'm a calligrapher and mature PhD student based in Palmers Green. I live with my partner, Rich, and our parrot, Katie.

Our beloved cat, Rupert, passed away in 2017, and I joined Cat in a Flat to share the love and cuddles I perfected on him with other cats in the area. As well as looking after Rupert from his kittenhood, I grew up with cats, and spent time volunteering at the Wood Green cat shelter in 2017-18. I also have lots of experience with parrots (my grandparents bred them), so if there are any birds in the house I would be happy to help with them too!

Having been a Cat in a Flat user previously, I know how things work, and as well as making sure that your furry family member is fed and watered, if they like to play, cuddle or be groomed I am more than happy to spend time with them doing just that. I'll also send you photos from each time I see them, so that you know what they're up to in your absence!

Please note that during peak times (e.g. summer and Christmas holidays) a very small additional fee is added to my prices.

I will spend a minimum of 20-30 mins with your cat, but likely longer depending on how much attention they want! Playing and grooming are staples of my service, and I enjoy the challenge of keeping long fur beautifully maintained on even the most unwilling of feline clients. I also have a knack for befriending even the most shy cats - including those that have been recently adopted. If any problems arise I will contact you straight away, and will go above and beyond to make sure your cat is safe and healthy.

After every visit I will message to let you know how your furry friend is doing, and I'll send multiple photos/videos of what they've been up to that day. Many of my photos have gone down so well with clients that they have been framed. A number of my cat friends have also been chosen by Cat in a Flat as their 'cat of the day' on social media.

I'm also a reliable pair of hands to trust with your property whilst you are away. I keep the areas I have access to clean and tidy, wash the cat bowls before every refill, and water any plants - indoors or out - that need attention. I can also put mail in a safe place and open/close curtains and turn lights on and off to make your property appear occupied throughout your absence.

    Sam was fantastic, sending us daily updates and great photos on her visits to Casper. We came home to a very satisfied and chilled cat, so I definitely feel he was in safe hands. Sam was even kind enough to take on a few little jobs like watering plants and putting the bins out which was great. Would not hesitate to call on her again. Thank you Sam!

    Sam has been absolutely brilliant with Orson and Panda. We were so nervous leaving them for two weeks but there was no need - we came back to two happy and relax cats. And Sam's daily updates made us smile every time. Not to mention the pictures- always stunning!

    Sam was great!!! Sent us lots of pictures of Pax and kept us updated, and when our train was cancelled she was happy to extend the booking to one more day to help us out. Would recommend Sam to anyone looking for a cat sitter, and we will definitely book her again :)

    Samantha looked after our terrible two for the evening, she quickly befriended them and put our minds at rest while we were away with updates. So glad to have a lovely reliable cat sitter in the local area! Highly recommended.

    Sam was the perfect cat sitter. Her communication was excellent and we came home to a very happy cat. She also sent us pictures from her visits which were lovely to receive and it was clear Sushi was having a great time. We couldn't recommend Sam any more highly - she is a true cat lover.

    I cannot recommend Sam enough as a cat sitter. She looked after my two cats whilst I was abroad on holiday for almost a fortnight. It was obvious from the great photos & messages she sent daily that she has a great affinity with felines - even my two! I arrived home to very content and happy cats and no mess. She is the best cat sitter we've ever used and would love her to look after them in the future.

    Sam is the best cat sitter in the world! The communication was amazing, I loved getting daily picture updates. Winston & Sophie were clearly smitten with her because we came home to 2 very happy cats!

    I have just returned from holidays to 2 calm, happy and beautifully cared for cats. Sam is a genuine cat lover, trustworthy, reliable and a great communicator, if you choose her for your fur babies, they will be in very good hands. 5 stars.
