Isabel’s Cat Herder Cat Sitting Service

Hello fellow cat lovers and enthusiasts!

I’m Isabel and I’m currently working on a flexible contract whilst studying. So, of course this means I am flexible to your and your cat’s needs whilst you’re away. As an experienced cat paw-rent myself, I understand that your cat is part of your family and I will adopt a ‘cat-centred’ approach to their care to meet their needs. For example, extra attention and cuddles for the fussy ones or a calming presence for the shyer ones 😻. I am also enhanced DBS checked and I can provide references for my experience with cats.

Having grown up with cats throughout my life, it would be impossible to live without them. I am currently a cat paw-rent to 2 wonderful and charismatic kitties, Pepe and Lola, both 4 year old rescues. Pepe - a foster fail - who I’ve had since 8 weeks old. This cheeky, playful, mousing cuddlebug certainly keeps us on our toes daily! Lola - an Arabian Mau adopted from Dubai - the lady princess of the manor, affectionate and calm but certainly shows the strength of her lungs from time to time with her meow, as Arabian Maus come second to the Bengal with their vocals.

For the last 4 years, I have volunteered for local cat rescues, co-ordinating and home fostering for cats in need. My foster experience includes; pregnant cats, mother and kittens, caring for sick/disabled cats (cancer, renal failure, blind, deaf, diabetes), trapping feral cats. This experience has allowed me to learn how to administer medication and injections.

My passion and love for animals/wildlife in need/rescuing animals continues to develop as I have recently began volunteering for UKWT (UK Wildlife Transporters), transporting sick/injured wildlife between local wildlife rescues and vets. So far, I have transported injured hedgehogs.

🏡😸 Home visits will last for 20 minutes and include: Feeds of preferred food (and some treats added in there too, if required!), fresh water, litter tray cleans, play/cuddle session.

💊 Medication/injection administering, if needed.

🦜🐁🐇 I can feed and care for other pets and maintain a wildlife friendly garden, if required.

🪴🗑️✉️ I can water plants, bring in/put out bins or post, any additional light chores, if requested.

📷 Daily updates, including photos and videos, will be sent to you.

🙋🏼‍♀️ A free consultation prior to the first home visit is required. We will be able to get to know each other and I can get to know your pets in order to give them the best care.

Any other questions, please feel free to ask!
