About Me

The cat whisperer

Hey! I’m Charlie, a 28 year old strategist living in Catford with my fiancé and two cats.

I grew up with many cats during my childhood and in 2019 went on to rescue two cats of my own who I adore. One has become quite the talk of my neighbourhood for his wandering ways and unique personality. The one thing I love about cats is that no two are the same.

I’ve been using catinaflat for over 6 years and have built up a sizeable kitty clientele. I was even ranked top in Google search for “pet sitter Peckham” when I used to live there.

I’m experienced in looking after an array of cats from friendly to shy, many of my clients call me the cat whisperer as I’m able to entice even the scardiest of cats out from under the bed for a chin scratch or a treat with some time and a little patience.

I’ve got a lot of experience in animal husbandry, having volunteered at Battersea dogs and cats home for a year. I also have experience taking care of rabbits, hamsters, dogs, fish and even horses. I’m a huge animal lover and when I’m not cat sitting you can find me dog sitting, horse riding, attending gigs or doing yoga/barre.

I am comfortable administering medication in pill or liquid form and more than happy to visit your cat 1-2 times a day but as I have cats of my own I unfortunately cannot offer overnight stays at the moment as I need to be around for them.

I would love to help you by taking care of your much loved pets whilst ensuring everything is as it should be in your home, including watering plants/garden and any grooming/litter tray needs. I would be more than happy to send you regular updates for your peace of mind whilst you’re away as I know how hard it can be to leave your beloved kitty behind

Prior to booking, I would be more than happy to pop over and meet you, find out more about what you are looking for in a cat sitter and answer any questions you may have. I just want to ensure that both you and your cat will feel as happy and comfortable as possible whilst you are away. I can honestly assure you that your kitty will be in great hands if you choose me as your sitter. Please get in contact as I’d love to help out if I have the availability!

    Charlie was great. We went away for a week and our cat is used to being outside and so she was gr3at at letting him in and out every day, and making sure he didnt overheat on the really hot day. Very.local so also really flexible and good communication when we were away.

    Charlie was once again a great sitter for our little Sawyer! She spent lots of time with him during visits, allowing him the chance to explore outside at his leisure, and was also flexible and very responsive. Sawyer used to hate when we went away but now he's totally fine as he knows he's in good hands with Charlie.

    We loved having Charlie take care of our cat, Lumos. She was really caring and even took on a last minute request when we we're feeling anxious about leaving Lumos for the first time! Will certainly use her in the future. Many thanks Charlie!

    Charlie is a great cat sitter! She was quick and easy to organise things with initially and very communicative while looking after our little Sawyer. The pictures and videos she sent over were much appreciated and helped put our minds at ease. Would highly recommend her as a sitter and we'll definitely use her again.

    Charlie did another great job of looking after our cats. She also very kindly watered our indoor and outdoor plants, which was very welcome given the heat at the moment. Our cats are pretty shy but we came home to two very relaxed little boys. We also received photos and updates throughout the week which we greatly appreciated. Highly recommend Charlie!

    As new cat parents, it was our first time leaving our 10 month kitten and 2 yr old cat for a week!

    We were already impressed by Charlie’s profile and we could not be happier using Cat in the Flat and finding her. Introductions before our holiday went so smoothly and communication was clear throughout.

    We received cuter pics and vids than our own of them and truly appreciate Charlie’s genuine care of cats! Gave us nervous cat parents, true peace of mind :)

    Charlie was fantastic with our cat Atticus who can be very challenging. Would highly recommend. Thanks so much.

    Charlotte did an amazing job at looking after Luna, and was great at sending regular pics and updates of Luna so I knew she was in good hands. Would definitely recommend.

    This was my first time using this app. I believe I was lucky to get Charlotte as she was great. She readily agreed to meet me beforehand & collect the keys/do a handover routine & briefly saw my rescue cat Miso who had secreted herself away.

    I came back to a contented chilled little chubster. She sent regular updates & sent a lovely clip of Miso happily interacting with her.

    Charlotte has a lovely sweet & gentle way & I can’t imagine any cat not succumbing to her charms. I felt very confident to leave Miso in her care plus she has 2 cats of her own which I believe gives her a great insight into their behaviour. I’ll definitely be using Charlotte again & would highly recommend her services to any one else.

    Charlie did a great job catsitting for me. Kevin isn’t the world’s easiest cat at times and I came home to a chilled, relaxed cat - way better than leaving him in a cattery!

    Charlie was totally reliable and quick to reply to messages. Would thoroughly recommend her!

    Charlie is a very caring animal loving person. She has looked our after our cat many times and has a natural bond with her. Charlie has lots of patience and will play with your cat. She is used to cleaning out litter trays, feeding and providing some tlc when required and is also able to wrestle the odd mouse or bird from the jaws of hunters. This particularly applies to my cat, Hoover, who by name is apt to eat everything in sight. But Charlie has a firm hand. Any cat would certainly be a VIP with Charlie. She is also very responsible and will take care of your property when she visits.
