About Me

Cool for Cats

I have very recently stepped down (not retired) from being a chemistry teacher which I absolutely loved though it did consume my life! I grew up mostly with dogs, but we also rescued a little one-eyed kitten, Korky. She was a great character but sadly only lived a few years. In my own family we have had 2 cats - also rescues. Our current cat, Coco, can sometimes be very scared, for example she won’t use the catflap unless it is pinned open, but she’ll still defend her garden against anyone in the neighbourhood! I would like to have more cats in my life but sadly Coco would not so cat sitting seems like a great option!

I’m happy to follow instructions regarding feeding regimes, clean out litter trays, give fresh water, groom, play with, talk to and give cuddles and tummy rubs. I recognise that all cats are different; some being very friendly and others being timid so I will always approach cautiously in the first instance until I have earned their trust. I’m happy to send daily updates via video or photos.

    We’ve used Helen as our cat sitter several times and have always been impressed with the care she provides. She’s reliable, thoughtful, and clearly experienced with animals. It’s a real comfort knowing our kittens are so well looked after while we’re away.

    This was the third time I’ve used Helen to look after my cats, and once again she did an excellent job. She takes great care of them, so I can go away without worrying and always come home to happy, well-looked-after cats. I highly recommend her.

    Helen was available to jump in and help me out over xmas at the last minute and was extremdly kind to my unwell cat. I would 100% recommend her.

    Helen was absolutely wonderful. As she lived round the corner, she offered to come twice a day (even on Christmas Day!) and pet the cats as well as feed them. She sent me regular updates and photos. It’s so important when away from cats to know they have some company as well as food in their dishes! Absolutely highly recommend 😊

    It was so lovely meeting Helen - she was thrilled to spend time playing with my cats (including a very active kitten), and went above and beyond making sure they were fine. I got detailed updates for each cat and some photos. Thanks Helen, I really appreciated your help!

    Helen went above and beyond when looking after my two cats whilst I was away. She sent messages and photos every day and it was great knowing that I didn't need to worry about them as they were being so well looked after. I would highly recommend Helen and will definitely look to book her again in future. Thanks!
