About Me
Cat sitter in London
UPDATE August 2025 - I am still Catsitting and am looking for new clients.
The photo is Zeus - high maintenance but we love him.
Hello my name is Gary and I live in Forest Hill, SE23. I am a huge cat lover, living with them all through my life. My wife and I currently have 6 of our own, the youngest is going to be 5 in September and the oldest will be 16 in January 2026. We lost our beloved Jack in June 2019 who lived to the ripe old age of 21 and a half. Jack had been on medication for a number of years which means that I can administer drugs either orally or by injection. All of our cats bar two have been strays or not wanted by their owners with two being rescue cats from Thailand. Whilst you are away I would be happy to spend time with your cat(s) ensuring that they have their food at the appropriate time, have fresh water and fresh litter trays. I would also be happy to water any indoor plants and stack your post neatly where you want it. I would of course also visit your veterinary clinic should the need arise. Whilst I am with your cat(s) I would ensure that they receive lots of attention to help make things as stress free as possible for them whilst you are away. When we go on holiday we like photos and videos of our cats together with updates from our catsitter so rest assured that I would be happy to do the same for you
My Reviews

LondonI would highly recommend Gary. Excellent communication with a full update after every visit including photos. Went the extra mile to keep our cat happy and occupied while we were away. Clearly really cares for cats and understands their needs. We felt very reassured knowing our cat was in good hands and will definitely book Gary in the future.

LondonGary is the most wonderful and conscientious cat sitter. I felt very comfortable knowing that my boy Tony was in good hands. He gave detailed and thoughtful updates, executed the job well and had clearly bonded nicely with Tony by the end of the booking. Thankyou Gary!

LondonGary has looked after our 2 cats for the second time. Gary doesn’t just feed & water the cats, he checks they’re ok, tells me who has eaten what & it’s really clear that Gary is responsible for their welfare & wellbeing whilst we are away. I would not hesitate to use Gary any time we go away or recommend him to others.

LondonGary took great care of Pishi during my holiday and thanks to him and to all the updates and photos he sent me, I have been able to really enjoy my time off without worrying for my dear kitty. Gary is very professional and very knowledgeable about cats, I trusted him completely and I highly recommend him!

LondonGary is fantastic! So friendly and professional. We couldn’t have hoped for a better person to look after our two cats. Gary’s updates were always like clockwork for the whole week we were away, with a lot of detail and pictures to reassure us that the cats were doing well. Gary is a very experienced cat owner, with six cats of his own, and we have a lot of confidence that he’d know what to do in an emergency situation as well. Couldn’t recommend Gary more!

LondonGary was great with our cats! He is very communicative, thorough in his preparation for looking after them (asked about the vet, cat carriers & even batteries for the cat flap!). He sent full updates & lots of photos. The cats even brought him a little mouse present so they must have been impressed (thanks for dealing with it Gary)! I wouldn’t hesitate to book Gary again & recommend him to others.

LondonThis was our first time using a catsitter for our two cats (18 months and 6 months old). We found Gary through cat in a flat and went with him because of his cat experience and reviews. Gary came to meet us twice before actually cat sitting for us. He's a very friendly man with a lot of cat experience and stories!
On his visits before cat sitting he made lots of notes on any requirements for our cats. He was happy to deal with the difficulty of one of our cats being an inside only cat and one being inside / outside. I think Gary would accommodate most odd requests (cats can be picky funny animals!)
We had Gary cat sit for us twice a day. On each visit he would send a very detailed update which was hugely appreciated, along with 4 photos with comical captions. Given Gary was our first catsitter this was very reassuring!
Overall, I would strongly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a catsitter. We will definitely be looking to ask him to look after our cats again while we're away!

Forest HillI am so pleased to have found Gary to look after George. I’ve booked him several times now and I know that I can trust him to take care of my cat whilst I’m away. Gary gives me regular updates and goes the extra mile to make sure George is ok.

LondonGary looked after our two cats while we were away on our holiday. He is very experienced and he did an excellent job. We were getting detailed updates and cute pictures of our kitties every day. Gary is polite , helpful and reliable. He loves cats and looks after them very well. Our cats learned to trust him very soon after the first meeting and let him stroke them after a day or two. We forgot to put our bins out for the weekly rubbish collection before our departure. Gary did not mind doing this for us which we really appreciated. I can highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a cat sitting service.

Andrea B
LondonI cannot recommend Gary more - he is a very nice and reliable man. He sent us daily updates with photos of our cat Rory and we got back home to a very happy cat. We’re really pleased we found Gary as he took the stress out of travelling and finding someone to take care of Rory. We will love to book Gary again!
-
Virginia P
Forest HillThis is the second time Gary has taken care of George and I’m very happy with the service he provides. I get regular updates with pics (even my friends ask me for Gary’s George updates 😁). George is nice and relaxed when I get back and the place looks just as I left it. Would happily get Gary to take care of George again.

LondonOnce again we had the reassurance of knowing our cat and home were in safe hands. Gary is incredibly conscientious and keeps us posted in detail after his visits. He’s never phased by adapting plans or extra tasks like bringing in a parcel, and even retrieved and put away our bins for us. Most importantly our cat is lovingly cared for and is happy and relaxed on our return. Thank you Gary :)

LondonWe are very happy to leave our cat in Gary’s care. He’s ultra-reliable and efficient, very thorough and punctual with communications, and is a real cat expert. We have already booked his next visit.

Forest HillIt's the first time I've used cat in a flat and I've been really impressed with how easy it was to book Gary to look after George. George is a little shy, but Gary went the extra mile to get to know him before I had to travel so that there would be no issues giving George his meds whilst I was away and that it would be as pleasant as possible for the cat. I got regular updates, pictures and had peace of mind that George was well looked after. I'd have no hesitation booking Gary to take care of George again.

LondonGary was really reliable, sent plenty of pictures and updates, and we came home to two very happy cats. I would definitely recommend him and use his services again.

LondonGary took great care of our two kitties while we were away. He’s detailed and prepared, and sent us updates and pictures every day. Gonzo and Goldie clearly like him. The house was in great shape when we returned. Gary is a cat person through and through, and we can wholeheartedly recommend him.

Tom S
LondonGreat experience using Gary's services for the first time; he's a genuine cat lover and takes a real interest in the cats he looks after. Our cat is particularly nervous around new people, so it was reassuring to receive thoughtful updates and pictures each day. Gary makes sure all that aspects of a cat's wellbeing are considered and takes the time to get to know them & their needs. He's always on time and it was reassuring to know that he was keeping an eye on the house our absence. Highly recommended!

.Gary was so reliable and willing to listen to whatever specifics we asked about for our cat Maco. We also got very detailed updates with pictures which put my mind at ease. It was quite hot while we were gone and I was worried about Maco being too warm but I felt comfortable asking Gary his thoughts on Maco's wellbeing considering his experience with cats. He really went above and beyond to let us know Maco was okay and we were able to relax and enjoy our holiday. We came home to a happy cat and we will definitely book Gary again for our next trip.

LondonWe were really happy to leave Mince Pie and our home in Gary’s care. He is incredibly diligent, professional, thoughtful and excellent at communicating; most importantly he really loves cats, and went the extra mile to give our affectionate cat all the attention he needed. He also went to a lot of trouble to take care of our house (collecting parcels, putting bins away) and left everything spotless. Mince Pie was completely relaxed and happy on our return. We will be booking Gary again. Thank you!

LondonGary was excellent and very accommodating and helped us out during a weekend away, even after our plans had to change at the last minute. Both Otis and Teddy were in good spirits when we got back. This was the second time we booked Gary's services and we would recommend.
-
Pete K
LondonGary was great: his attention to detail and communication before, during and after his visits were all fantastic; we got loads of pictures, too, and came home to four very happy cats.

LondonGary was excellent with our cats Teddy and Otis while we were away for a week. Both were very happy and content when we got back. He is a real cat person and he went the extra mile to make sure they were OK at all times. Also was very communicative with lots of pictures and updates with every visit. Would certainly recommend to others, we have already re-booked Gary for our next trip away!

Forest HillThis is the second time we've used Gary and once again we came home to two very happy cats. He's reliable and quick to respond to any queries. A great person to care for your cats.

LondonThis is the second time Gary has looked after our cats Cali and Nina. As before we have come home to two very happy cats. Gary is extremely reliable and takes good care of our cats, being rescues they are normally very nervous around new people but they are really comfortable with him. Gary is also a great communicator which puts you at ease whilst you are away. We highly recommend Gary and will certainly be using him again.
-
Charlotte D
LondonI would highly recommend Gary, he is super reliable, extremely flexible and a real cat lover. He kept us informed throughout our time away and was extremely accommodating in the timing of his visits given there were house viewings taking place whilst he was looking after our cats. We have come home to two very happy relaxed cats. Even our very nervous cat Cali loved Gary and was clearly very comfortable around him. We will definitely be using Gary again!
-
Vanessa B
LondonGary is a super reliable and dependable cat sitter- we feel very confident leave our little one in his hands. We are currently having some building work done so when he came round to look after our cat, her bits were all over the place. However, Gary was great at being flexible and also improvising when things weren't immediately available. He also keeps us up to date with photos which is great. Final point- our shy rescue cat loves him!
-
Meera G
LondonGary was a friendly and incredibly reliable cat sitter. One of our cats needs multiple meds twice a day and he was able to administer without any issue, which was a real bonus. He gave us regular updates and we could see from the photos that the cats were happy. We came home to very contented cats. I would highly recommend Gary, we were very happy with the service he provided.

Vanessa B
LondonWe booked Gary to look after our cat Chemmy for 10 days while we were away. He was fantastic and we will definitely be using him for our next trip. He was really flexible with times for visiting to get the keys etc. and really listened to all of the quirks we have about taking care of Chemmy. He went above and beyond to make sure that Chemmy was well looked after, sending photos and updates each visit. You can tell Gary really adores cats and treated Chemmy like one of his own. He was easy to contact and very responsive throughout. We came home to a super happy cat; she was so relaxed it was like we were never away!!
