About Me
Shirley Based Cat Sitter with Over 25 Years Experience
Hello! My name is Christina and I live with my husband Dan, my baby son Teddy and my black cat Eleven (pictured on the furry clients page!).
We adopted Eleven from the cats protection league in 2016 - she came with her fair share of baggage, and has been pretty high maintenance ever since, but she’s part of the family and very much loved.
There has always been a cat or two in my life, I love them so much and I’m very experienced in looking after them…I may even like cats more than people! (I like people too though, of course)
I frequently cat sit for friends and relatives and have been doing so for over a decade. And through Cat in a Flat since 2018. I’m a registered Paramedic, I work part time and hold a full and up to date DBS.
If you send me a request and I am available, I will offer the opportunity for a complimentary meet n greet (up to 30 minutes) prior to the booking, at a time that suits both of us. You can then decide if you are choosing the right person.
A little more about me - aside from cats, some of my favourite things are books, all types of music, walking/hiking, Pilates, photography and weather (I’ve been storm chasing twice!). I always find that cats are extremely difficult subjects to photograph as they rarely keep still! But I do my best and will send you photo/video updates of your feline friends while you’re away.
THE BORING BIT (aka the small print but there’s only one font size here!)
Please note: my listed prices are for 1-2 cats. If you have more than 2 cats there will be a small additional charge. When you enquire, please let me know if you have more than 2 cats and what will be required for each visit, and I can then give you a quote.
Please also note: If you have booked me but need to change your dates, please get in touch. I’m happy to add dates to your booking providing I am not already fully booked on the new dates. If you need to subtract dates from your booking this is also fine but I cannot offer refunds for the cancelled days without at least 21 days prior notice. If you need to cancel your entire booking, please contact cat in a flat for refund information. By booking me, you are agreeing to these terms.
BORING BIT OVER!
If you’ve got this far, and like what you’ve read, please do send me a booking request! I look forward to hearing from you and can’t wait to meet your cats! 😺🐈
I cover Shirley, parts of Beckenham, Penge and some of the surrounding areas.
My services:
Cats-
Feeding & watering. Changing/managing litter. Letting cats in and out if applicable - and locking/unlocking cat flaps etc. Playing, grooming, stroking and generally making a fuss of them! Taking photos, making videos to send to you alongside my updates so you can see that they are happy and well. I’m also adept at removing the ‘presents’ cats sometimes bring in! Mice, bugs, birds...you name it, I’ve dealt with it! Medication - tablets or drops is fine. I’ve never given a cat an injection - if this is needed I would recommend seeking a cat sitter who has experience with this. If your cat is or has recently been unwell, let me know. I will always ask for your vet details and I am aware of the local emergency vets in case a visit is needed although hopefully it won’t be!
Other- Watering plants/gardens. Picking up post/taking in parcels from porch etc. Turning lights on/off and opening/shutting blinds as needed for security purposes. Managing recycling boxes on bin day. Feeding the fish! Any other tasks: please ask! Small tasks that won’t take time away from care of your cats are usually fine.
