About Me
Friendly Purr-mate in Oxford :)
General Availability: If you cannot find me, I am fully booked or have holiday planned for the period you wish to enquire about. If you have booked with me before, feel free to message me on my mobile number to check if I can do your dates. I am happy to take bookings several months in advance.
Location: I have moved back to Central Oxford so I am currently only taking bookings within the Oxford ring road. Bookings outside of Oxford will resume in August 2025. Depending on your location, I may need to add a travel fee as I currently do not have a car.
Price information: Although the Living Wage and Oxford Living Wage has increased, I will be maintaining my current fees marked on my profile due to the majority of bookings occurring during Peak periods. However, if the Living Wage increases in 2026, my base rate will increase.
My starting hourly rate covers the living wage (/hour) calculated by the Living Wage Organisation and Oxford Living Wage (£12.60 for the UK outside of London; £13.16 for Oxford - 95% of London’s Living Wage). It also includes part cover of the insurance and website fee I pay Cat In a Flat. (Insurance + use of Cat In a Flat + use of Stripe is 19% of the price I show on my profile, so I receive 81% of the price you’re shown when you make a booking with me) Please see the Living Wage Org website for more information. For information on the Oxford specific living wage, please see: https://oxfordlivingwage.org/what-is-the-oxford-living-wage/.
If you have any other questions about fees or would like more explanation, please message me. I will not accept requests asking for me to reduce my fee to anything below my starting fees.

Hello, welcome to my profile. My name is Caroline and I have a huge love for cats, hence why I decided to become a cat sitter! Even though I have not owned my own cat before (due to my family unable to afford one and then unable to own one due to living in rented accommodation), I have regularly interacted with friend's cats as well as neighbour's cats throughout my life. I'm very keen to learn about each cat and their personalities as I find they are all a character each to their own.
I currently work part time while looking for a full time job.
Services I provide as a cat carer:
• Free meet ups before the booking takes place so you and your cat(s) can get to know me (optional but highly advised)
• Provision of fresh food and fresh water daily
• Cleaning of the cat bowls and litter trays according to your preferred methods
• Plenty of play time, fuss and cuddles
• Grooming (dry grooming with brushes)
• Daily photos and updates
• Providing medicine through wet or dry food. (Includes getting the cat to think the medicine is a treat)
Additional services: Watering and caring for plants (inside and outside the house). This is provided at no extra cost.
Areas Covered: I cover most of the Oxford city area but most of my clients have been from East Oxford as this is close to the house I first started cat sitting. All Oxford city addresses I can reach (or those within and just on the edge of the ring road), but please ask before booking so I can check if I can reach your home in a timely manner as I do not own a car and will either cycle or take a bus.
