About Me

Cat sitter in Edinburgh

I'm Janie, 43, a lover of all animals, except maybe snakes (sorry!) I'm a self-employed furniture maker by profession, which means I can make my own hours, so this side line is very easy for me as and when cat sitting jobs come up. I've always had pets as a child, so have experience of cats with different temperaments and needs and always really enjoy sitting cats for a little extra pocket money! I tailor my visits to the cats needs, happy to stay for playtime and cuddles or just work as the cat butler for the more aloof or timid creatures 😂

    Third time we have had Janie look after our cat. She is great, our cat Shosha seem very happy when we get back. Janie kept us posted while away. Highly recommend her. Thanks again Janie.

    Janie looked after my cat while I was out of town and has been absolutely brilliant! She’s kept him company and cared for him, and sent me updates each day. He’s been totally relaxed and happy when I got back - thank you Janie!

    First time having Janie to look after my cats. Good communication. My cats seem to be getting more and more relaxed around Janie and it’s all that matters at the end of the day.

    Janie was great - clearly knew what she was doing with the cats, took great care of them, and gave me plenty of photos and calls. When she came round to drop off my keys, the cats were as happy to see her as they were to see me again, which is always a good sign. I'm happy to recommend her.

    Janie was Brilliant. As the very first time I had left my cats overnight, I was anxious. Janie set my mind at ease from the first interaction and came round twice to make sure my boys were familiar and comfortable.

    I got lovely pics and messages for each visit which was so lovely. They were happy cats when I got home.

    Highly recommend :)

    We are so grateful to Janie. She accepted the cat sit at short notice and did a wonderful job looking after our kittens. Janie sent me daily updates with a little photo which was great. We will definitely ask Janie to cat sit for us again! Thank you Janie.

    Once again Janie has been fabulous in caring for Eddie, daily photo updates of cuddles show my very happy and relaxed cat enjoying some love and attention whilst we are away means I can relax knowing he is in Janies care, would highly recommend Janie if you are at all hesitant about leaving your cat at home whilst holidaying! Thanks Janie!

    We contacted Janie with short notice as our initial cat sitter cancelled. We needed someone to check in on our cat and feed her once a day. Janie was great. We were away for three weeks but felt our cat Shosha was in good hands. Janie is reliable and very easy to chat to. We loved the updates and pics from her when away. We came back to a super relaxed cat 🐈‍⬛ Highly recommend Janie.

    Janie was great with our cats, she always made sure to send a picture and to tell us how they were! We found very happy cats when we arrived, so we would recommend her to other cat lovers!

    We left Eddie for 12 days in complete confidence he would be getting a loving twice daily visit from Janie with photo updates showing us cuddles galore- staying for that bit extra comfort when needed- once again would not hesitate to recommend Janie as a real cat loving sitter who will do a great job of looking after your little one whilst you’re away!

    Janie looked after Eddie for 6 days and sent a daily photo and message letting me know how he was which was a great reassurance especially as this was the first time. We came home to a happy cat and I have already asked her to do it again if she can. Would have no hesitation recommending Janie and from the photos of Eddie snuggling with her I think he’d agree!

    Wow, it took me forever to get to write this review but here it goes. We were very happy with Janie taking care of Muffin. It was his second time ever and a second time with Janie as well. Janie kept us in the loop with daily messages and photos, and Muffin seemed a happy cat upon our return. We would highly recommend Janie as a cat sitter.

    Janie was great! This is the second time she has looked after Mishka and I'd highly recommend her. Mishka was so content and happy when I got back that I don't think she missed me at all!

    Janie did a fantastic job looking after our two cats. It was our first time using the site and she put us at ease and took away any concerns we had. She kept us up to date while we were away and made the effort to try and get to know our elusive cat, Cricket! Highly recommended!

    Janie done a wonderful job taking care of our cat, she visited her twice a day which was great as our cat is a house cat and she made sure she spent a bit of time with her every evening and making a fuss of her. She text me each evening to let me know how she was getting on which was great peace of mind. Will definitely be booking Janie again in the future!

    Janie was fabulous with Mishka! She sent photos of their chats together while I was away and Mishka was so content when I got back. I'd highly recommend Janie to look after your fur babies!

    Janie is a friendly and very professional cat sitter. She took care of our cat for a few days while we were away. We were a bit concerned since it was our and Muffin's first time apart, but when we returned he was happy and relaxed. She texted us with daily updates on how he was doing. We would highly recommend Janie to any cat owner and we will definitely use her services again.

    Janie looked after our cats several times over the last two years when we've been away on holiday. She was so great that our two cats have actually moved in with her for 6 months while we've had to move into temporary rented accommodation. She's really reliable and trustworthy as well as bring great with cats. A natural! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She might even water your plants!
