North London and South Herts cat mama bear!

I’ve had 22 of my own cats over the past 30 years and take care of them as I would human childen! I love getting to know each one, following their likes and dislikes and I build a strong bond with my cats by chatting with them constantly! I love meeting and befriending new cats and have been sitting locally for years.

I was a university lecturer in Animal Science teaching subjects such as welfare, nutrition, veterinary care and behaviour. I’m also a strong believer in improving animal rights. I’ve used the same vets (Hills) since I was 6 years old and they are very trusting of me to administer medication including tricky cats to give pills to and injections. I also work with horses so my day is taken up making sure animals are happy from dawn till dusk!

I can cat sit around North London and South Hertfordshire.

"10/10 would recommend Helen. She’s one of only 2-3 people in the world I would trust to look after my cats. She genuinely cares for and loves ALL of the cats. She’s very good at medicating naughty kittens too, so any cats that needs meds would be well suited to be looked after by Helen 🙂." Becky Wigley-Smith, Veterinary Nurse

"We'd recommend Helen Betham too. She takes brilliant care of our two monsters when we're away, our cats have been way happier when we've been away with Helen checking in on them than anyone else." Diana Barbarić, regular client.
