About Me

Cat-tastic care! Experienced, reliable & intuitive cat carer.

Hi, I'm Emma!

I’ve been a professional cat sitter for the past 5 years, as well as spending 3 incredibly rewarding years working with rescue cats at Holly Hedge Animal Sanctuary.

With a lifetime of experience living with animals and a natural affinity for them — especially cats — I bring a calm, confident presence to every visit.

In addition to hands-on experience, I’ve completed CPD training in 'The Trust Technique', a combination of animal communication and animal healing, as well as 'cat behaviour' training whilst working at the Blue Cross in Devon.

I also run my own part-time practice as a Clinical Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist and EMDR Practitioner, which helps me bring a gentle, soothing presence that many sensitive or anxious animals respond well to. Because I work for myself, I have the flexibility to adapt to different needs and schedules. My goal is to offer peaceful, happy vibes so your pet feels calm, loved, and comfortable — along with a decent amount of playtime if your cat enjoys that — almost like they’re on their very own staycation! While you’re away, I strive to provide quality, enriched time that supports their happiness and well-being.

I’m Bristol-based, a car driver, and happy to travel further afield if travel costs are covered.

If you have any questions or would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Warm wishes,

Emma

    Emma was amazing at taking care of our cat. She would always communicate to us on how he’s doing and when we came home our cat was confused and was wondering where Emma was! It was a pleasure to have her look after our cat and we highly recommend her for cat sits!

    Emma was really great and I came back to very happy cats. She was very attentive to one of my cats who needed some extra care recovering from an injury, and it was so nice to know he and his brother were in such good hands while I was away. I would definitely recommend Emma to anyone else!

    Emma has been a fantastic cat sitter, we couldn't have wished for anybody more kind, caring and thoughtful than her. She was able to accommodate the greatly differing needs of our two cats and kept us updated with little videos and pictures. Highly recommend!

    Emma stayed for the weekend to look after my two cats and she was amazing! They are both so relaxed whereas normally they sulk for ages! Emma was absolutely outstanding at following their routine and I am beyond relieved to have found someone who will take such good care of them. She left the house absolutely spotless and the cats (and me) so happy

    Emma was absolutely brilliant looking after my little babies at short notice. She was so helpful, kept my two cats company and they (and me) were extremely happy! We are going to have Emma stay again for a long weekend before we definitely book her for a longer stay! We cannot recommend Emma enough!

    Happy to give Emma a 5 star review, even though we had to cancel her booking bc of the recent storm, so we did not leave town. But her online and personal reviews are fabulous and we loved meeting her in person. She was personable and thorough. We feel very secure knowing she is available to care for our Louie when we need it again in the future.

    Emma was fab. Very easy to communicate with before and during our booking and we had daily photo and video updates which was lovely. He’s normally a very skittish cat around strangers but Emma managed to make friends with him very quickly and he was a happy cat when we got home.

    Emma was absolutely fantastic - professional, friendly, pro-active and responsive - and most importantly, my cat loved her. I came home to a very content cat, who had clearly been very well cared for and looked after. I can't wait to welcome Emma back.

    So Emma has started to look after my two cats and I couldn’t be any happier. And I say “started” because I’m definitely contacting her again for future visits! One of my cats needs medication and I know everything is under control. Very responsible and lovely too. Absolutely recommend her 😻

    Emma did a great job with our two cats. We received updates from both of her daily visits and she communicated with us very quickly. They both settled back into their normal routine very quickly after we got back.

    Emma looking after our Maya during our 12 day holiday gave us huge peace of mind. She spent time playing with her and keeping her company, not just feeding her. Putting the rubbish out was really appreciated too. She kept us updated with photos and videos. And Maya was clearly very chilled when we got home. Thanks so much Emma!
