About Me
The Cat Woman 😸
Hi! I'm Maxine. I'm owned by Miss Dotty and Miss Cookie, both rescue cats. They are sisters and love chasing each other around the garden. I lost my original three pusscats, Smudge, Socks & Poppy, a few years ago, all to old age. Smudge was an impressive 20 years old and Socks and Poppy were both 18 years old.
I work part-time but am available to look after your cat, day or evening, weekday or weekend. I have a current DBS Certificate and can bring this with me for you to see.
I'm happy to cycle/drive to anywhere in Shrewsbury or the surrounding area to look after your pussycat while you're away.
I know how important it is for you to have a reliable cat sitter to look after your pusscat. I will follow your instructions, ensure the cat bowls and litter box are clean, give treats and supply lots of tickles.
PS: If you need any plants watering, post picking up, etc while you're away I would be happy to do this for you.

PlymouthMaxine is the perfect sitter. She is reliable and professional. She was very caring and gentle with our elderly cat. Thanks Maxine 😊

ShrewsburyMaxine is incredible, we feel so lucky she was able to look after our cat and hibernating tortoise with so much care while we were in Australia for three weeks. Dusty can be a bit shy but she (and we!) trusted Maxine right away. We got lots of lovely updates and nothing was too much trouble, thanks again Maxine :)

.Maxine did an amazing job looking after my rather nervous rescue cat. I received messages and video updates every day and arrived home to a very happy, relaxed cat. I would definitely ask Maxine to cat sit again. She is very friendly and reliable and I could see from our first meeting that she is really patient with nervous cats.

.It was immediately obvious how much Maxine loves cats and how great she is with them so I had complete confidence entrusting my fur babies to her. Maxine sent us lovely video updates where it is clear how gentle and kind she is with the cats and we returned home to two very happy and well looked after cats. We would highly recommend Maxine.

ShrewsburyMaxine has the magic touch, I can't recommend her enough. My mog is very skittish with new people but Maxine had him eating out of her hand. Knowing your cat is being looked after so well when you're away, is so reassuring and makes the whole experience stress free.

ShrewsburyMaxine was absolutely brilliant and I can't recommend her enough. Excellent communication and was unphased in having to look after a very nervous cat. Iris even stopped hiding and came out to see her after a couple of days, which is amazing! Thank you so much :)

ShrewsburyMaxine was fantastic! She recently looked after our 2 cats, Luna and Leo, whilst we had a short break in France. She sent us regular updates with photos and videos of Leo and Luna every day, showing how relaxed and well looked after they were. Leo is a very nervous young cat but he quickly responded well to Maxine. We will definitely book Maxine again in the future and I can highly recommend her.

She once again took such amazing care of our cat Monty while we were in France.
Maxine is such a lovely person. She is so thoughtful to Montys needs and mine, always sending me photos and videos of our cat each day. I really appreciated it as it was a long time to leave him.
Many Many thanks. Monty clearly loves you too.

ShrewsburyMaxine visited before we went away to meet the cats and learn their routine. She sent photos of the cats each day which was lovely and the cats were all very chilled and happy when we returned. Maxine also sorted the post and watered for me! We will certainly use her again.

Thank you for sending the pics and it’s good to see Tizzy getting along with a new person, usually she’s under a bed with new people. Thank you so much and the cats are looking forward to their next staycation.

.Maxine looked after my lovely old, very shy cat in August for a week. She didn’t just come in, put out food and then leave, she took the trouble to find him (hiding under the bed) and stroke him and make him feel comfortable. Over the week she managed to earn his trust and he eventually waited for her to arrive. This means such a lot to me because I’ve never left him with a stranger before and her extra effort was so lovely. I’d recommend Maxine to anyone who wants a real cat lover to look after their cat, she was brilliant. She also sent me photos every day and watered the greenhouse! Thanks Maxine :) xx
