About Me
Cat sitter in Ipswich
Hello! My name is Ellie, or I sometimes go by Ella. I live in Ipswich with my two rescue cats Milo and Spot.
I'm a student of cosmology and astronomy at the Open University, which I work on remotely from home. This means that I am fully flexible with my catsitting hours and can visit your kitties any time of day or night you need.
While I am a lover of all animals, I have a special place in my heart for cats, from my own to cats I bump into on the street. I’m happy to do whatever it takes to keep your kitties happy while you’re away - from playing, feeding and cuddling to giving medication, grooming and special care. I have experience looking after reptiles and rodents as well. I’m also a tropical plant collector so rest assured I can keep an eye on your house plants or garden while you’re gone too!
I operate free from discrimination, no matter your race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual identity, religion or any other things that make you you. Let’s share kindness and of course our love of cats.
As mentioned before, I am fully flexible with the times I can visit your cat(s). My usual schedule for catsitting is daily morning and evening visits for food and cuddles (or not, for the shy ones!). I am also happy to do more than 2 visits in a day, or book longer visits to suit your needs - please let me know if you'd like to discuss this!
Before your booking starts, I like to pop round to meet you and your cat(s), and this way you can show me what needs doing and I can meet the cat(s) I'll be looking after, as well as picking up keys for the visits. If this is not possible, then we can arrange an alternative method.
For regular clients, if my calendar shows unavailable on the dates you need then please get in touch anyway as I may be able to shuffle some things around for you!
If you have any questions at all, please feel free to send me a message and I'll get back to you as fast as I can. Thanks!

IpswichEllie is a fantastic cat sitter! Was very nervous about leaving our 1year old house cat alone for the first time for 10 days, but Ellie put our minds at rest by doing 2 visits a day and making sure Luna was fed and happy. Also updating us every day was brilliant. Will definitely be getting in touch for our next holiday! Thank you Ellie xx

IpswichAnother visit by Ellie, don’t know what we’d do without her looking after Marley while we’re away. Can always trust her to make sure Marley eats her medicine and takes her meds, even if she is a little fussy about it!

.Ellie was everything I hoped for. It was my first time using a cat sitting service and being very anxious, this was no easy decision. But everything was perfect and I didn’t worry once while I was gone. I received pictures and videos of my cat everyday. I’m so relieved I’ve found Ellie & 100% will be my go to cat sitter now. Thank you x

IpswichAs always I came home to a happy and relaxed Oscar. This trip was unexpected so I was incredibly relieved and grateful Ellie could help on short notice. Oscar trusts Ellie and is happy when she visits so Ellie is always my first choice if I need to be away from home. Getting updates and pics after each visit helps me worry less while I’m away.

IpswichEllie has catsitted for us many times now. Marley loves Ellie coming to visit, she's clearly very relaxed with her being around, and I always feel so comfortable leaving Marley in her care. This time we were away 9 nights (a long time!) and Ellie visited Marley twice a day. I received regular updates, and Ellie went above and beyond to make sure Marley didnt miss us too much while we were away. I am very thankful for Ellie's help and will continue to call upon her when needed - thanks Ellie
