About Me

The most awesome cat sitter and all round animal lover!

Hi, I’m Doris, I'm 52 years young with a background in catering. These days I can mostly be found cuddling cats and pounding the streets of Leeds and Wakefield as I am a runner and I've just run my first marathon. I would love to take care of your cats, chickens, or small furry pets whilst you are away! I love animals and from a very young age have had cats, dogs, hamsters, chickens, peacocks etc. as part of the family. My mum was a well respected and renowned cat breeder for over 30years until she retired 2 years ago. So because of this I have so much experience with felines from over seeing kittens being born to caring for elderly cats!

I have three gorgeous cats: Bertie (12) who is a super chatty, affectionate, black fluffball, who often needs/demands cuddles at 3am whilst we are sleeping! Faith (12) a British blue shorthair, who was so nervous when she first lived with us, but is now much more confident and loving. Then there is Anna- A.K.A the Duchess! She is 17 years old and still ruling the household including us! Having always had pets I am confident with all aspects of pet care, but due to the age of my cats I have become an expert at administering oral drugs (either liquid or tablets) to our furry friends. So if your cat/s need extra care then I am here to help, and reassure you, by giving excellent care to you pet/s while you are away.

I am extremely flexible days and evenings, My cat services include but are not limited to: • Administering any medications your cat/s require • Putting down fresh food • Changing water bowls • Cleaning food bowls • Giving treats (if they’re allowed) • Clearing litter trays and changing litter when required • Cat cuddles and tickles • Brushing of fur if they are happy with me doing it • Playtime for the playful cats • I will send you daily photographs of your pets to help you from missing them so much and i’ll give you a daily update of what your pets ate, and what food i topped up, as well as detailing their toileting if required.

I like to arrange a visit with you before you book me. This allows me to meet you and your cat/s and give you the opportunity to ensure I’m the right person to look after your cat/s. It also gives me the opportunity to take notes on their daily routine and requirements. Each visit will be approximately 20 to 30 minutes.

Also I would love to add a photo of your kitty to my profile page and I hope you love seeing their faces there too. If you would prefer not to have their photo on my profile please inform me at the time of booking. Alternatively I can remove photos if you let me know. Thank you for reading my profile and hope you will choose me as your kitty sitter.

Other services if required: • Opening and closing curtains • Lights on/off • Watering plants • Taking the bin out/bringing it back in so you don't miss bin day • Sweeping the floors to clear scattered litter tray mess • Any additional jobs that we agree when we meet

    DORIS was amazing as usual, she gave my furry baby plenty of attention and kept her many informed on a daily basis

    We couldn’t be happier with Doris as our catsitter! Our two cats, Ruby and Tiger, are usually quite shy around new people, but they took to Doris right away. She was fantastic with them, and we came home to two happy, relaxed cats. It’s clear she has a real way with animals and loves them. We got regular video updates and will book again. Thanks!

    I was nervous about leaving my 3 fur babies this week as it's the longest I've left them with a cat sitter and my older boy has additional needs - Doris reassured me every day that they were well and happy and she clearly loved and cared for them as if they were her own! I came home to very happy cats 😻😻😻 and a very clean house. 10 out of 10!!!!

    Doris was very friendly and reliable, she made sure to send lots of photos and videos. She was also kind enough to bring out our bins and clean spilled litter which was really above and beyond what we expected. Thanks so much!

    Doris adores my cat so I know that he's in the best hands. Thanks for allowing me to go away guilt free knowing Buddy is going to be cared for really well ❤️ I'd book her again in a heartbeat.

    Doris was AMAZING! I can't thank her enough. Snuggles was already on medication but we Doris was great with him. Unfortunately he needed a visit to the vets and Doris went above and beyond looking after Snuggles so we didn't have to come home from holiday. I can't believe how wonderful she was and I will be eternally grateful.
