About Me

Cat sitter in Oxford

Hi, I’m Milly! I’m a medical writer living in Horspath, Oxford. I’m a huge cat lover, having grown up with 5, but don't have any pets at home currently. So I’d love to spend time looking after your cats instead.

I’m experienced in looking after cats of all ages, from pure-bred kittens to ancient moggies, and love playing or curling up on the sofa for a cuddle.

Having taken the last year out from sitting, I'm happy to take bookings again in 2025. I am also fully DBS checked, and am happy to stay overnight if required.

I’m an expert at cat cuddles, and have managed to win over many grumpy or timid cats in the past! I’m based in Horspath so can cover the village area. I’m happy to help with giving special diets, indoor or outdoor cats, and any individual requests.

If your cat(s) need more than a standard visit (eg extra grooming, additional food prep, or just extra playtime), or you're in need of house-sitting too, I'm happy to discuss additional time or drop-ins. (These would be associated with an additional cost).

Please note, as I prefer to walk to sits and will visit before and after my working hours, I cannot normally accept bookings outside of my set radius. For overnights, please drop me a message if you are out of area to discuss. Thanks!

    We would highly recommend Milly. She looked after our two cats and she took time before we went to come and meet the cats and learn their routine. She established a good bond with the cats and was very good at keeping us updated with photos and updates. The cats loved her and it was reassuring to know they were well looked after.

    Very happy with how Milly looked after the cat and would not hesitate to ask her to help out again in the future.

    Again, we were very pleased to see Mimi looking so well and happy after Milly had been visiting her while we were away, and we enjoyed receiving daily photos of Mimi. It was obvious from Milly's daily messages, and from chatting to her, that she is a real cat lover!

    I was very pleased that Milly was looking after Mimi - she sent us messages and pictures every day, and Mimi was in very good form when we got home. Thank you, Milly!

    Milly has been absolutely fantastic with our very nervous cat. She gave him the time he needed to feel confident with her. We have been in regular contact during our absence and communication was always great. I very much hope that Milly will be available to look after our cat again next time we are away.

    Milly did a wonderful job looking after my 4 furbabies when I was away for a long weekend. She communicated well from the very beginning, send me daily updates which include a short observation of each cat. That was nice and reassuring. I came home to happy kitties! I would highly recommend Milly!

    Everything went to plan and I would happily entrust Milly with cat care in the future. The cat was in good shape when I returned home.

    Milly was an exemplary sitter for my wonderful but very shy kitten. She was regular in her twice-daily visits, and made sure to spend time with Nell, and draw her out of her shell a bit with play. She also sent me regular pictures and updates, so I always felt reassured that Nell was being looked after. I returned to a happy, relaxed and well-looked-after kitten thanks to Milly's care.

    I’ve nothing but positive things to say about the lovely Melissa (known as Milly) who charmed our cats and left our house immaculate on our return. I’ll definitely be using her again and highly recommend her.
