About Me

Fabulous felines cat sitting services Edinburgh

Hi guys!

I am a 39 year old nurse and a true cat lover! I have owned cats since I was a young child and am confident and comfortable caring for all types of felines. From the most confident meows to the shyest, most timid kitties.

I have 3 cats of my own, one is a seal point Siamese called Orlo, the 2nd is a cream British Shorthair boy called Phil and finally, I have Sienna a black oriental girl.

I will happily give your kitties attention and play time, as well as feeding them and ensuring they are happy and healthy whilst you are away. I will send you photos with updates as well, so you can see how they are doing. I also don't mind watering your plants whilst you are away too, feeding fish and other small animals can also be arranged.

I can care for kitties who need medication and/or injections if needed. My nursing background means I am confident with doing such tasks. Just let me know exactly what is needed and I can ensure they will be well cared for.

Christmas eve, Christmas day and Boxing day are limited to one visit per day. Please get Christmas requests in ASAP, booking up fast!

I cover the areas of Pilton, Muirhouse, Davidson's Mains, Black hall, Silverknowes, Trinity, Newhaven, Inverleith, Craigleith

    Tara has been exceptional, looking after both our cats and understood their care needs and how to keep them comfortable in our absence. Brilliant knowledge of cat behaviour and kept us routinely up to date (with photos). Very obviously loves cats and takes pride in her job, could not recommend a better catsitter.

    Tara was amazing! Would definitely be calling her again. She was very caring and was texting me every time she was in and very quick to respond always! Loved having her here :)

    Thanks to Tara for the excellent care of my 8 month old kittens Ivo and Stroma this weekend. She sent me plenty of updates on how they were doing which I particularly appreciated given a recent health scare for Stroma. There were also plenty of photos of them, much better quality than any I have managed! I will certainly ask her back.

    Really communicative during initial enquiry, pre-visit and while we were away. I felt comfortable and reassured leaving Mia in very capable hands.

    Tara was brilliant looking after our two cats while we were away. Comms we’re good from the beginning and then when we were away she went above and beyond letting us know how they were each day and what they were up to. Would definitely recommend and will be using again!

    Tara did an excellent job looking after our Netty. We came back to a very relaxed and stress free kitty, she may however now have a new favourite!

    Tara is a fantastic sitter. Have used her services several times now. She is always reliable and very trustworthy. She has her own cats so understands the importance of being a cat parent and she keeps me updated with photos and how they are. Would definitely recommend!

    Tara was really good with my cat who can be quite nervous. I got lovely daily updates with pictures. When I got home my cat was calm and seemed relaxed.

    Tara was minding our herd of 10 guinea 🐖 She was very prepared from the very beginning which she has shown by taking all the relevant notes. Also she was happy to help with plants and bins if necessary. She went far and beyond by sending us lots of pics and videos which put smiles on our faces while away! Highly recommended ;)

    Tara was very helpful and accommodating during the busy festive period. The cats were clearly very well looked after, fed and happy. Tara sorted out the automatic feeders and made sure our cats got all the love and attention they need. She kept us updated and sent lots of photos over Christmas so we came back to two very happy boys. Thanks Tara 😊

    Tara looked after my two cats over the Christmas period. She was fantastic from 1st contact right to the end. Excellent communication and I felt I could completely trust her. Very warm and friendly person. Kept me updated with messages and photos over the 3 day period. Would highly recommend Tara. Will definitely be using her again 😃

    Tara was fantastic with our little one. So happy we found her and that our little lady took to her so quickly! Also really appreciated receiving regular update. Seeing how our girl was doing gave us much comfort while we were away.

    Thanks so much Tara you’re the best!
