About Me

Purrr-fect care for your feline friends in Dalmeny and South Queensferry!

Hello, I'm Joana, I live in the Ferry, am fully police-checked and look forward to looking after your furry friends.

I've grown up with cats all my life - from playful kittens to wise old companions! My own ginger queen who I've had since she was a kitten is now nearly 14 years old and moved with me from Portugal! I am especially experienced with senior cats and love giving them gentle care, cuddles and treats 🐱

Every cat is different and I LOVE that.

I like to take time to understand each kitty's personality, preferences and boundaries. I will always let them come to me first (we know how particular they can be!) and I really appreciate any tips you can share about their favourite toys, cuddles or quirks.

My visits last around 20min and include:

  • Feeding and fresh water;

  • Litter tray cleaning and changing, as needed;

  • Daily photos and updates of feline antics and awkward naps;

  • Treats, grooming, lots of cuddles (if they’ll let me!) and playtime;

  • Watering plants/collecting post, if needed.

My goal is to keep your cat relaxed and content while giving you peace of mind while you're away.

Feel free to reach out for a chat! 🐈🐾💛

    Joana is now a regular sitter for our two moggies and she’s been great at administering new medication too. Highly recommended.

    This is the second time Jonana had looked after our cats. She's been so lovely and communicative, going above and beyond for us! We've just come home to well fed cats and a clean litter box. Our cats are happy, and so are we!

    Joana has been a fantastic find. She came to meet the cats before we arranged her first visit and I liked her straight away. She is reliable and kept me informed after each visit. My cats didn't seem to have missed me at all, which is a great sign that they were very happy with her too. I'm about to book her for another sit. Highly recommended.

    Joana was great with our old/grumpy cat, attended to him well and gave him his medication, he seemed happy when we got back! Oh and she also took our bins out while we were away, how good is that!

    Joana was great looking after Pebbles, great comms leading up to the first visit & very understanding when our plans changed last minute.

    During our time away we received daily updates on Pebbs with photos & videos, it was great to see.

    Many thanks, Joana, your cat could not be in better hands 😃 - Alister Haran

    I'm a new Cat in a Flat user, so I had lots of questions which Joana promptly and clearly responded to. Joana was reliable, friendly and reassuring before and during my booking. I came home to a very happy & relaxed cat. It was great to receive photos and videos of my cat while away, seeing he was purring and doing belly rolls was very reassuring.

    In the end we had to cancel our booking because of a change in plans. However, Joana was extremely helpful with everything. When we met for our pre-booking visit she was very thorough and very easy to communicate with. I would have no problem at all in recommending her and I hope we can use her services in the future.

    Joana is a brilliant Catsitter, kept me fully updated, managed my cats medications and seems to have got on really well with my timid (sometimes aloof) 18 year old cat - I came home to a happy chilled out cat, and parcels which she had kindly retrieved from neighbours - would recommend unreservedly.

    I cannot recommend Joana enough as someone to look after your cat. She was thoughtful, caring, professional, friendly and responsive. She visited me in advance and met my cat and kept in touch before, during and after my absence with updates and photos. I will certainly book Joana again!
