Local Poppins for Purr-fect pet-sits!

Hello lovely people!

My name is Katie and I absolutely adore animals, especially cats! (Please see reviews for me on Pawshake!).

I've been a cat owner since I was a little kid and am now a mama to my own fur-baby, a Ragdoll called Ralph. I have been sitting some gorgeous cats for neighbours for a while now, so thought I would make this official! :)

I am a friendly and patient person who will get on with pets who love a cuddle and gentle coaxing, as well as those who love lots of fuss and energy. If you have a playful kitten that needs tiring out with endless games, or a shy kitty who needs some soothing company, then I'm your girl.

All ages of pet and sizes of pet are welcome! I have sat kittens as well as adult and senior cats, and if you have other pets too, I would be happy to work with them, including dogs, birds, reptiles and other more unusual pets, with clear instructions on their care.

I always include plenty of photo and video updates if you'd like them, so you can see them having fun and sending you love :)

If there is anything specific you'd like, please let me know and I'll see what I can do! Whatever their needs I promise to shower them with love and return them to you happy, safe and sound :)

To get in touch, please message rather than call if possible. Take care and I hope to hear from you soon :)

About my hours. I work for myself which allows for very flexible hours, so I am able to do visits within workday slots. A standard visit is 30minutes but this is negotiable depending on what suits your pet.

I can also come and do overnight stays, daytime supervision and/or visits to feed and play with pets while you are away. For overnight / house sits the hours are negotiable depending on your requirements - I actually prefer longer visits as it's nicer to bond with shy kitties and to catch them in a good mood for cuddles and/or play!

Area covered. Please note that I do not have a car so will only be able to take on short visits (e.g one drop in) if it is in the Hackbridge, Carshalton, Mitcham and Wallington area. Please note I do not offer boarding or visits to my house as I have a cat of my own.

House care I am a clean, tidy and organised person and am more than happy to water plants and do other small household care tasks during a longer stay.

Medication and special needs: I am comfortable giving oral or dermal medications, brushing long coats, litter, even outside walks for cats if your cat is used to it (mine loves it!).
