About Me

Cat Crazy in Cross Gates - Registered Veterinary Nurse and cat rescue volunteer

I am a registered veterinary nurse and cat advocate located in Cross Gates. I am crazy about cats and I currently have 15 rescue cats and volunteer at a cat rescue and sanctuary where I help care for 30+ cats.

Over the past 30 years I have had the pleasure of living with a menagerie of rescue animals including dogs, cat, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, degus, hedgehogs and budgies.

I will do everything I can to make your time away from home as stress free as possible for yourself and your beloved cats. I will care for your treasured kitty as if they were my own and spend time getting to know their personalities. I understand that all cats are different and when and how they interact with me will be down to them. If they love cuddles and/or want to play I will happily oblige. If they are more independent or less comfortable with strangers I will not overstep their boundaries.

I am happy to visit once or twice a day according to requirements. Visits can include feeding, litter change, TLC, play and medication administration.

I am happy to care for other small furry animals including rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and gerbils.

I am confident administrating medication, clipping nails and basic grooming.

Happy to discuss any specific needs, please contact me to discuss :-)

I can provide daily updates and photos while you are away so you can rest assured your kitty is getting the care they deserve.

    This is our second time using Rachel - she is really wonderful and patient with our nervous cat and has developed a great relationship with her. It definitely puts our mind at ease while we are away to know Pepper is in good hands.

    Second time using Rachel. My cat coco remembered her from last time and plays hide and seek with her when I’m away. So heart warming to watch. She was also available last minute which I was grateful for !

    Rachel consistently provides photo's and lets me know how Smudge is doing. She interacts brilliantly with Smudge playing with him or giving him cuddles depending on his mood. I would thoroughly suggest Rachel as your next cat sitter.

    Rachel stayed with Rona for the weekend and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly attentive and caring, ensuring Rona was well-fed (very important 😆), entertained and comfortable. I received regular updates, which gave me the peace of mind whilst away. Rona was happy and relaxed on my return. We highly recommend Rachel ❤️🐱

    Rachel was so good with Coco- who can be quite shy and anxious. Even played hide and seek with her and Coco has been so happy whilst I’ve been away. Will definitely be using Rachel again

    Rachel is absolutely fantastic with our nervous cat, showing her lots of understanding and patience. She is very reliable and sends detailed updates with photos and videos each day to reassure you that your cat is well fed and looked after while you are away. We would definitely recommend Rachel to anyone needing a cat sitter!

    Rachel was reliable, did everything we asked and kept us up to date with photos at each visit. It was reassuring to know that she was taking care of our cats, one of whom had recently been diagnosed with a medical condition, and made it much easier to enjoy the time away. The cats were happy too. We would not hesitate to contact Rachel again.

    Thank you, Rachel! Helped us out at very short notice after our other sitter had to drop out, showed an interest in learning about Meg and was keen to understand about her preferences and quirks! She provided regular updates including messages, pictures and videos while we were away which was really appreciated as we were missing Meg a lot! Star.

    Rachel looked after my cat Smudge a 13 year old with three legs. Rachel sent me update photos every day and even though this was the first timer Smudge has had a sitter he took to Rachel very well and she was a firm friend by the end. I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel to anyone looking for loving and thorough care for their feline friends.
