About Me

The Daft About Cats Cat Sitter

Hello!

My name is Chelsea and I've been a cat owner all my life. Yep! We've had cats in my family from day one. Through the years I have been privileged to travel the world with my pets (cats and dogs) and have grown up educating myself about them and caring for them. This led me to pursuing completing my animal care certificate, studying animal behaviour and have had experience working alongside vet nurses. I now live here with my lovely (and chatty) boy Binx. He's an asthmatic cat so does at times require an inhaler. This means I am quite comfortable administering medication where required (however please note that this does not include injections unfortunately) and have been first aid trained for animals. So with this being said, know that your furry friend will be well looked after whilst you are away!

I am happy to offer sitting services up to twice a day. I do work full time, so please get in touch and let me know what arrangements you would prefer and I can see if I would be able to manage this. The areas that I'm happy to cover are mostly within the Southside area as I would either be getting to destination on foot or public transport depending. The areas I can cover are:

  • Shawlands
  • Mount Florida (**)
  • Cathcart (**)
  • Battlefield (**)
  • Newlands
  • Pollokshaws
  • Pollokshields (Maxwell Park area)

(**) these areas will have a £7 extra travel charge added to the total. (This price has been updated as of April 2025)

If your area is not mentioned in the above list, please feel free to drop me a message to see if I am able to cover your area.

Sitting services include (but not limited to):

  • Daily playtime
  • Feeding (obviously!) and daily water changes
  • Brushing/ Grooming
  • Daily litter cleaning (including cleaning out and fully replenish depending on length of sitting required)
  • Medication (where required)

Along with these sitting services, I will happily take in mail and water any plants you may have as I am also a plant owner!

Hope to hear from you soon 😊

    Chelsea looked after my 3 cats for four days whilst I was away up North. I felt so comfortable and relaxed leaving them in her care, as she regularly sent photos and videos of them playing, along with updates on then 😊 (I don't think my cats missed me at all 😅). I would highly recommend booking Chelsea, your pets will be in safe hands!

    Ask me about Chelsea and her sitting service and I’ll sing her praises. Brie needed looking after while I was abroad for the festive period and we could not have been more at ease. She sent updates, pictures, and even took care of the gnats making themselves at home in a house plant. A fantastic sitter ⭐️, could not recommend enough!

    Chelsea is a fantastic pet sitter and it's not the first time she looked after my senior cat Nala - I know I'm leaving my cat in good hands which alleviates the stress of being away from Nala. Chelsea is very experienced, observant and kind! And most importantly, you can tell she loves cats <3

    Fantastic care from Chelsea. We were kept up to date with messages/photos/videos showing their antics twice a day. She went over and above too, emptying the bin, asking when our flight was back incase of delays! The cats and us were delighted with the care provided. Chelsea is now added to our favourites 💕

    Chelsea was great with the cats and obviously takes pride and joy in her work. She really gave me peace of mind when leaving my cats for a few days. I would happily leave them in her care again. Highly recommended ☺️

    Reliable and trustworthy, if our cat could look any more disappointed at our return she would because Domino will miss her best pal until we decide to go away again, thank you Chelsea you are wonderful.

    Chelsea was great and very attentive to our cats needs. She went above and beyond what would normally be required and had a lot to deal with as one of our cats has tummy issues. Really appreciated how Chelsea dealt with any issues.

    We can not thank Chelsea enough for looking after our babies. We received updates and photos every day. We will definitely be asking Chelsea to look after Podge and Portia again.

    Chelsea was fantastic! Our 2 cats obviously felt at ease with her and she communicated very well with us while we were away. We came home to 2 very happy boys and would highly recommend Chelsea as a sitter!

    Chelsea is the most amazing cat sitter. I would highly recommend! My cats are so happy when she has been looking after them. Definitely 5 Stars 🌟

    Chelsea has cared for Nellie on multiple occasions, and she is an exceptional sitter! Despite Nellie’s wariness of new people, Chelsea quickly won her over. Now, Nellie eagerly runs to the front door to greet Chelsea during visits—a stark contrast to her usual behaviour. Chelsea gave daily updates and was so attentive to Nellie. Highly recommend!

    Chelsea was brilliant! We were lucky she was available over Christmas and she sent lots of lovely updates whilst looking after our wee one. Chelsea was also extremely patient with a temperamental house key and contacted us immediately, fortunately we were able to find a solution! Thanks again and we look forward to seeing Chelsea again you soon 😺

    Always so happy to have Chelsea look after my two girls. I appreciate the daily updates and pics, even when it’s just a few nights away. My cats are timid and scatty and don’t come out for everyone but they are obviously comfortable with Chelsea around. Thank you!

    Chelsea did a great job looking after my cat, Ada, at short notice when I went away for a long weekend. Ada is quite shy but was soon playing and snuggling with Chelsea in my daily photo updates, so I could relax knowing she was happy and well cared for. Thanks Chelsea!

    Chelsea is amazing! We had a bad experience previously leaving Buddy at boarding, with no updates however the service that Chelsea supplied was night and day. She checked on Buddy twice a day, we got multiple updates including photos and videos. This out our mind at ease as he was clearly happy and settled remaining in his home. Thanks Chelsea

    Chelsea provides an amazing service! We came home to a very happy and relaxed kitty after a week of visits from Chelsea. She sent brilliant updates and photos daily giving us peace of mind while we were away. Chelsea was so respectful of our home as well - she kept the place tidy and we felt so secure with her visiting.

    Our cat is extremely shy and timid so we were unsure whether Chelsea would even see Nellie when she came to feed her. However, Chelsea won her over in no time and sent us pics of the two of them getting on like old pals. We couldn't be happier with Chelsea's service and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and conscientious sitter!

    As always, my girls were well looked after by Chelsea whilst I was away. They were super relaxed when I got home and I got my daily pics and updates which I’m so grateful for. Even my plants got some attention in the warm weather. Thanks so much!

    Chelsea was great with our cats, we came home to find them both very happy and relaxed. One of our cats is very shy and hides from new people, and Chelsea was very patient and kind about making sure she spotted him before heading off on each visit, which is very much appreciated!

    Chelsea was looking after my cat during the Christmas holidays and she was excellent! Very reliable, she sent daily updates and plenty of photos. I could tell my cat was in good hands as when I returned she was very happy and relaxed. Would not hesitate to ask Chelsea to look after my fur baby again.

    Chelsea did an amazing job looking after my two cats. One of them is usually very shy but Chelsea made her comfortable enough to come out for food and to play. I got loads of updates and pictures which made it a lot easier to be away from home and I came home to two chilled, happy cats!
