About Me

Loving Cat Sitter in SE1

Hi! I'm Katia ! 🤗 A caring and friendly, vegan animal lover, living with my super cute familiar Gizmo, a rescued black cat who's now super spoiled, purrs loudly, loves cuddles and heaters, and lies about not having had breakfast or dinner 😆

I'm experienced and 100% trustworthy; I have had cats as a child, and been around them throughout most of my life, growing up, including looking after 4 cats in my past carer job experience, and volunteering at rescues (including cats and dogs rescues). I now adopted my very own baby boy, and I'm the luckiest cat mommy ever !

I have had family and friends taking me in as their first option to look after their pets for years, before using Cat In A Flat, including helping with fostering, dealing with more difficult cats (such as shy, traumatized or feral ones) and I'm here to hopefully make this a more regular thing in my life 😊

I'm the kind of person who makes friends with cats in the streets or on holidays.. and most of my holiday's pics have at least one pic of me giving cuddles to local cats.

I love to spoil and cuddle every cat, I love to play with them, give them treats (especially when they're being extra good 😉), and overall making sure they have everything they need to feel the absence of their humans as little as possible, knowing that each cat has a different character and needs focused attentions. 💜 You can expect lots of updates, including pics/videos from me, because as a cat-mom myself, I know too well how difficult it is to leave your furry babies in a stranger's hands, and how important it is to be able to be at peace when away. My goal is to make sure both furry and human members of the family will feel at ease as much as possible.

I can give them medications, though I have never given injections to pet (I did to humans), so I'm very happy to be shown as I learn fast. I'm offering cat sitting job in the areas of Bermondsey, London Bridge, etc.. I'm happy to do nights even outside the area, as long as there is transport connection.

Also available for house sitting while looking after the cat/s, and I'm happy (and used) to cleaning after pets, looking after house plants, and general housekeeping (I value hygiene). I also don't have any issues with dogs or other animals, for those families or individuals with multiple types of familiars, and can come down to agreements with their special/extra maintenance. I offer cat boarding too, to cats that are used to and friendly with other cats, at a fixed weekly rate. 😸

    Katia is very thoughtful and caring with our cat. Silky was very comfortable with Katia and we will be more than happy to have her looking after our cat again. Katia has extensive knowledge of cat behaviour.

    Katia is a brilliant, caring and attentive catsitter. She took extra care to make sure Bonnie felt safe and relaxed while we were away. Couldn’t recommend Katia more!

    Katia's cat sitting was outstanding! She cared for Mishi and Spoon impeccably, even with Mishi's special needs. Our cats were relaxed, not stressed upon our return. Highly recommended; we hope she's available for our next trip!

    Katia was great! More than the basics, she spent time to give pets and play. She sent pics and videos to help us stay connected to our cat while we were away, and he always looked happy. I felt so confident in her that I was able to relax on holiday, knowing our feline family was in good care. I would hire her again in a minute, and you should too!

    Thank you Katia! What a fantastic experience having you caring for my two kitties! The constant updates, the pictures and the videos have me an absolute peace of mind! I could be sure my babies are in best possible hands, and won't be needing or wanting for a thing! Thank you so much!

    Katia was an absolute dream, my cat gets very lonely and stressed out when I'm travelling and for the first time I found him happy and relaxed thanks to Katia. She was sending me pics and videos throughout the whole catsitting and reassuring me on the cat wellbeing. Katia was staying over in the flat and I can't recommend her enough. Big thank you!

    Katia was absolutely brilliant with our two cats. They were very well looked after and clearly got very attached to Katia who gave them plenty of time and care in our absence. Katia sent regular updates and pictures.

    Best cat-sitter ever! I feel completely safe going away and leaving my furry kids with Katia. She follows the instructions to the letter and spends a lot of time with them, both playing and cuddling. She's also good at giving them medicines. She will keep you updated all the time; she sends photos and videos every day, which really makes you feel like they are well looked after. Also, Katia cleaned the house before I came back (she was house-sitting)! All in all, she's a very sweet and caring person, intelligent, with common sense and a can-do attitude with a real passion and connection with animals. I cannot recommend her enough!

    Katia looked after our lovely cats during an 8 day trip abroad. When we first met her, it was clear we were going to adore her! We were recommended her by a dear and cherished friend (also a brilliant catsitter, animal advocate and rescuer), so we knew she was going to be top notch.

    It’s hard to convey in words the compassion, kindness and care Katia exudes. She’s a natural! Not only that, but she’s funny, jovial, lovely and an OUTSTANDING professional. She isn’t just a cat lover, she is a lover of all animals and clearly so skilled with her human and cat clients. She understands the needs of all animals so deeply and it is so clear that she really understood the needs of our cats. Katia is incredibly experienced with animal care, having animals of her own (many different types) and having worked within rescue and catsitting for a long time.

    Our three cats are wonderful beings and are the centre of our universe. They are different ages, different personalities and have very distinct needs. We also have one kitten who is just under the age of one. He has a difficult relationship with our middle cat (a former rescue)…it’s a complicated situation to step into!! Our eldest cat gets depressed whenever we are away. There are definite challenges and we always feel bad whenever we leave them and head off on holiday! We always want them to have the best, as they bring us joy and have been with us through the bad times and the good.

    Katia navigated the relationships between them seamlessly. She managed to bond with each of them, on their own terms and gave them all oodles of individual attention and love. She regularly sent us pictures and videos, and we stayed in touch via voice notes. She was so reassuring and also gave us brilliant advice on how we could enrich their lives further. We have had some tricky experiences with catsitters in the past, but for the first time ever in a long time, we felt like we could switch off and let Katia care for the cats. She was so diligent and meticulous with understanding their routines, their personalities and also was so incredibly respectful of our house. On return, we can honestly say it was as if a specialist cleaning team had been through the house. The love and affection she showed our animals and the care she gave our house was tangible. The cats were so relaxed and happy on our return. Casper (our youngest) is STILL expecting a gold star service haha! Katia - if we could give you 100 stars or more, we really would. For now, all we can say is that if you need a sitter who is a consummate professional, a fantastic communicator…and above all, a person who understands and loves your animal family members as the beautiful, complex and unique individuals they are, Katia is the sitter for you. Thank you doesn’t cover it Katia, you’re part of our extended family now and we cannot wait to have you back! <3 love from (your fan club) Leo, Lyra, Casper and The Jezaks xx

    Katia is an amazing cat sitter. She pampered my babies and made sure they were well fed and entertained. She updated me with lots of photos and videos which made me feel like they were safe and looked after. Cannot recommend her enough!!
