Experienced, responsible, & friendly sitter with negotiable rates

Unfortunately, due to CIAF taking nearly 20% of my earnings in fees, I've had to increase my rates. I'm happy to negotiate rates for low-income households, so please don't hesitate to drop me a message to discuss this.

Hi there! I'm Cass, and I'm a huge cat-lover. Over the years I've had two cats of my own, Spangle and Stark, who were both rescues. They both had very different personalities – Spangle was quite difficult when he wanted to be, and Stark was a big softie, so I'm equally used to dealing with grumpy and docile types. I have over ten years experience taking care of cats of all personalities.

I'm a writer, artist, and self-employed as a business administrator. I've lived in Northampton since the end of 2016, after I moved northwards from London. I love music, film, theatre, travelling, dancing, and getting lost in a good book. I'm personable and kind, and love new experiences and adventures.

I'm great with cuddles and fussing, and spending time playing and simply hanging out, but if your cat would prefer me to leave them to it, I'll be respectful of their space. Am equally happy with indoor and outdoor cats, and litter duty doesn't phase me.

I have some experience with administering pills and liquid medication for cats (in food) with medical needs, but not with giving injections, or feeding pills directly.

I currently work from home, so I can be flexible with scheduling. If I'm staying over, as long as there's a 'net connection, space to set up my work computer, and standard amenities, I'm good to go, and will take great care of both your pets and your home.

I can cover anything from quick drop ins for feeding, to hanging around longer if your cats like a bit of company. If you need more than two visits per day, I'm open to discussing that. If you require a live-in sitter for an extended booking, I might be willing to accept jobs farther from home, but as I don't drive, drop-in bookings need to be reasonably close to my home on Kingsley Road.

I'm neat, clean, and very privacy conscious. As well as taking care of your cat family, I can water your plants, receive deliveries, feed your fish, take the bins out, and do basic cleaning whilst you're away. There may be an additional fee for this, depending on the extent of the extra duties you need covering.
