A Helping Paw

Hi, I’m Sandra! I’m an Edinburgh-based freelancer and proud cat mum to two friendly kitties, Mia and Fiyero (yes, named after Wicked). I’ve been around cats all my life, often pet sitting for friends and family, which made me fall completely in love with these little furballs.

My partner and I adopted our two last June, and they’ve truly become the heart of our home. I love getting creative with playtime, whether that’s crafting cardboard tunnels, string toys, or other fun DIY adventures to keep them entertained and happy.

I know how important it is to feel your cats are safe, cared for, and loved when you’re away. With me, your kitties will get all the attention, cuddles, and playtime they deserve. 🐾

I understand that every cat has their own quirks, routines, and comfort zones, and I try take the time to get to know each one as an individual. Whether it’s keeping to a strict feeding schedule, providing medication, or offering a quiet lap for cuddles, or crazy playtime. I adapt to what each cat needs most.

I’m reliable, organised, and respectful of your home, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. For me, cat sitting isn’t just about the practical care it’s about making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved until you return. I know what it’s like going away and worrying about how they are!

I’m also a big plant lover, so I’ll happily water and look after your plant children while you’re away. 🌱
