About Me
Reliable, professional, CRB-checked and insured cat sitter in Rotherhithe and surrounding areas.
⚠️Please include your postcode when making an enquiry so that I can see your approximate location. ⚠️
I’m a cat lover and work freelance from home, so I can easily be flexible with visit times to suit your needs and those of your cat. Part of my freelance work involves property inspection for clients, so I am familiar with accessing properties, securing them after my visit and holding/looking after keys.
I grew up with cats living at home, and have had several cats of my own in a previous flat, so I am experienced in caring for both indoor cats and those with access to the outside.
I am based just south of the River Thames, in London SE16, so my local areas are Rotherhithe, Shad Thames, Surrey Quays and parts of Bermondsey. I’m more than happy to consider sitting requests outside of my local area (e.g. Wapping, Limehouse, Old Kent Rd and further afield) although these are likely to involve additional fees (to cover transport costs and/or extra travelling time). This is dependent on where you are based and the logistics involved in getting there. I have a bike, car and easy access to London Overground.
My standard once or twice per day cat sitting service includes feeding, providing fresh water, clearing the litter tray and spending time with your cat, administering any medication and giving them human contact if they are happy to accept it. Each visit typically lasts 30-40 minutes.
As your cat sitter I will arrange a free “meet and greet” visit (for new clients), before you confirm your booking. During your booking, I’ll provide food and water to your cat(s) in accordance with your instructions (along with extra treats where allowed!) I’ll also clean their food and water bowls daily, and clear, clean and tidy their litter tray and surrounding area, as necessary. If your cat(s) are amenable, I’ll spend some cuddle/play time with your cat(s). I’ll collect your mail and water your plants when appropriate, and make arrangements to collect and return your keys, or hold them securely for you if you prefer.
During my visits, I’ll send you text, photo and video updates.
Overnight visits are also available, where I would stay overnight with your cat in your property (normally I’d sleep in a spare room). Overnight visits usually last around 10-12 hours.
If your requirements don't fit in to the once/twice per day or overnight service, please send me a message as it should be possible to work something out to fit both your needs and those of your cat.
I look forward to hearing from you soon!

LondonSteve is utterly reliable and professional. Our cats adore him. Us humans love the peace of mind when we're away from home and, as a bonus, Steve's snapshots of our cats are much better than anything I'd ever manage. Many thanks Steve!
-
Isabel P
LondonSteve is fantastic, he's been looking after my cat for years now. He's reliable and very professional, and always sends the best pics and videos for us to stay updated. It's such a peace of mind to leave knowing my cat is in good hands. Couldn't recommend him enough!
-
Jana W
LondonWe're just home from our first time away in two years - and Steve could not have been more professional, kind and attentive. A huge thank you for the assurance our two little guys were incredibly well cared for - it truly provided peace of mind and enabled a much needed holiday! Highly, highly recommend Steve - the care couldn't have been better.
-
Katja S
LondonSteve is the best! We are just back from a 3 week trip and Steve looked after our pair in his usual reliable and trustworthy manner. It included getting some medication into a fussy eater which Steve handled expertly. Great communication - happy cats, happy clients :-)
-
Kate & Andrea G
LondonSteve has been a fantastic cat sitter - very thorough and thoughtful, he bonded with Pye and the two of them clearly got on very well. Lots of updates with fantastic photos. Would not hesitate to recommend Steve and will no doubt book him again in the future. Thanks Steve!

LondonSteve was great! Took really good care of our cats and always kept us updated
-
Emma R
LondonAs always, Steve has been absolutely fantastic with our cats. These visits were a little trickier, as one of our cats fell ill just before.our holiday and needed medication twice a day. Steve was really accomodating of this and was quick to respond to all of our initial queries. The photos and videos of the cats are also much appreciated.
-
Cassandra P
LondonSteve did an amazing job with our (admittedly very difficult!) Buffy and it is clear he is very experienced with cats. He was very thoughtful with her and we received regular updates and pictures of our Buff while we were away. Cannot recommend him highly enough - thank you Steve!! Gold star service!
-
Dita H
LondonWe couldn’t be happier with Steve! He’s looked after our cat multiple times now and Oli is always glad to see him. This time, Oli got himself into some trouble - let himself into a cupboard and broke some drinking glasses. Steve went above and beyond cleaning up the mess, checking surrounding areas are safe for Oli and ensuring he’s ok. 10/10!!!

-
Katja S
LondonIf our cats were to write a review, they'd highly recommend Steve for best cuddles, great lap to clamber around on and good use of his opposable thumbs (aforementioned cuddles and frequent tin opening). Us humans appreciate Steve's professionalism and reliability ... great photos are a bonus :-) Couldn't be happier, thank you Steve!

Pete & Wes A
LondonFirst time booking Steve to look after Percy & Barnaby. It is clear he really likes cats and was professional and patient with our very shy cat (and concierge!) and took his time to build trust with Barnaby. Great communication, lots of pictures and videos and we came back to relaxed cats. Would definitely recommend Steve.
-
Eva C

-
Emma R
LondonSteve was so good with our cats! Couldn't be happier with the level of service. At first we were slightly nervous as it was our first time using a sitter. Steve put us at ease on our first meeting and gathered lots of important info. He gave us regular updates during the booking which allowed us to better enjoy our hol, knowing they were happy!
-
Katja S
LondonSecond time that Steve has looked after our duo and we are so glad we found such a reliable, trustworthy, and professional sitter. Thoroughly recommend Steve and we have already booked him for a 3rd time. Our cats love him and we enjoy peace of mind on our breaks :-)
-
Brett A

-
Isabel P
LondonSteve has taken care of Sahara a few times now and once again he did a fantastic job. My cat was relaxed and happy when I got home. I highly recommend him!
-
Eva D

-
Mark S

-
Charlotte B

-
Eva D

-
Mark S
LondonSteve was amazing with our kitties. He paid lots of attention to the details. There was also a steady stream of very cute pics and videos of them while we were away! Very happy and would invite Steve back again next time.
-
Brett A
LondonFantastic once again- couldn’t recommend Steve more highly.
-
Jamil A
LondonSteve is a great cat sitter and we highly recommend him.
We received daily photo and video updates. We were kept informed when Billy was not peeing (which he eventually did, to our relief).
Steve and Billy quickly became friends and clearly enjoyed each other's company. We would be more than happy to work with Steve again.
-
Katja S
LondonWe knew from our meet&greet with Steve that our 2 cats would be in the best hands and he did not disappoint. Steve is trustworthy, reliable and utterly professional. Communication was great and he is amazing with cats. One of our duo is scared of strangers and he had her wrapped around his finger within minutes. For us, it meant we could go on our mini-break with full peace of mind. Cannot recommend Steve enough :-)
-
Brett A
LondonSteve was fantastic- great communication and incredibly organised. He asked a few questions we hadn’t thought of which were helpful. He will be our first contact the next time we go away.
-
Eva D
LondonSteve did a great job at taking care of our cat. Regular time visits, frequent communication, and reliable as we had to extend our trip and Steve was available to take care of Graphite until our return. Would definitely recommend.
-
Alice W
LondonSteve was absolutely fantastic and we wouldn’t hesitate to re-use his services and recommend him to to others. Communication before and during our trip was frequent and he even made a note to point out several things we might not have thought about before we left. He sent lots of photos and videos every day which really reassured us and both our cats seemed really happy when we returned. Steve is a natural “cat person” who knew how to adapt to two cats of very different personalities and managed to gain the trust of our very nervous distrusting cat!
-
Isabel P
LondonThis was the second time Steve took care of Sahara and he was fantastic again. He took great care of her, and sent me the funniest pictures and videos in every visit. I was very relaxed while I was away knowing Sahara was in good hands. I highly recommend him!
-
Kate S
LondonSteve was great, he looked after my cat well and communicated loads so I always knew how Philip was doing. Would highly recommend.
-
Demelza S
LondonSteve has looked after my two cats many times now and he's always the first sitter I contact. He's always extremely well-prepared and ensures that he has the exact details of their routines and feeding. Despite being relatively shy, my two cats absolutely love him so I know they're getting lots of company while I'm away. He sends plenty of cute photos, videos and updates so I know they're doing well each day. I can absolutely recommend Steve as a cat sitter!
-
Isabel P
LondonSteve was great, very easy going and professional. He took very good care of Sahara, sending me pictures and videos in every visit (she liked him so much she was showing him her belly!). He made sure the cat area (food and water bowls, litter) was clean and tidy, we came back home to a very happy cat! I totally recommend him and will use his services again in the future.
-
Caroline
.This is the second time I book Steve and did so confidently given how brilliant he was the first time. Steve is very serious and thorough in preparing for the job, made everything easy for me and was so quick to respond. Steve sends me pictures when he visit our cat, who seems perfectly at ease with him. I highly recommend Steve !
-
Caroline
.Steve was a gem! Steve was very organised and takes his duty very seriously, planning for the emergencies and else. I felt very comfortable leaving sushi and my keys in his custody. Steve sent me pictures and videos at every visits and let me know Sushi’s moods. He even left brownies to welcome me back home! Sushi looks well and happy. Very happy and will definitely check with Steve if he is available next time I go away.

needleman streetThis is the 2nd time Steve has looked after Our Kylie. She is a shy cat and came to steve right away after remembering him the first time round. I am so glad we can go away now and know that our cat is in safe hands with steve.

Artemis I
LondonIn episode two of Steve caring for Batman:
Following Steve's brave decision to take Batman to the cat-hospital– after the careless cat ingested deadly lily pollen in episode one– the two men start developing an interspecies bond.
While Artemis is happily on holiday enjoying endless peace of mind and an indeterminate number of mojitos, Steve manages to make friends with the otherwise ungodly feline and by the end of Artemis's holiday the cat has almost learnt manners. Impressive job Steve.
Stay tuned for episode three: the Christmas holiday, coming up soon (in Christmas).

Olga T
LondonSteve did absolutely amazing job, by not only taking care of our fluffy friend Ricky, but also protecting our property (from some semi expected intruders). Myself, as a cat owner, I was impressed by all of the responsibility with which Steve had approached the task of looking after Ricky! I loved to get daily updates on Ricky, our plant and flat with lots of pics and videos of our fluffy friend and quite good jokes ;) Absolutely can recommend Steve as responsible, sweet, caring and friendliest sitter :) Would definitely leave Ricky (only when necessary, of course ;) in his caring company.
-
Samuel B
LondonSteve stayed overnight for a week with our Siamese, who needs a lot of attention. Steve was organised, punctual, and exceeded expectations, sending us regular little reports and videos of his time looking after her, which gave us great peace of mind. I will not hesitate to use Steve's services again.
-
Rosie M
LondonSteve was great, really thorough and prepared before hand and he kept us up to date on lil Jeremy at all times. We came home to a very content well groomed fuzz! Will definitely use Steve again! :)
-
Michelle M
LondonSteve is fantastic. He is super organised and worked in really well around my timetable. Coco loved his visits and I received regular updates from Steve while I was away which was really reassuring. Steve is hugely reliable and extremely considerate. I would highly recommend him to look after your pet!
-
James C
LondonSteve was excellent while we were away, spending lots of time with the cat and sending us updates every day. We came back to a very relaxed and happy animal
-
Alicia S
LONDONCouldn’t have asked for more! Steve sent thoughtful pictures and updates and was great at communicating. Lagertha was very calm and happy when I got home, think she liked him! Thoroughly recommend!
-
Artemis I
LondonVery few people can boast about saving Batman's life, and Steve is now one of them. During my absence Steve noticed that my lovely cat (Batman by day) came into contact with dangerous flower pollen, and he immediately notified me, coordinated with the vet to transfer him to the cat-hospital, and then collected him, and kept an eye on his mood.
I honestly believe that had it not been for Steve's proactive and reassuring manner I would have had to cancel my travels and come back to hold Batman's paw during this ordeal. He contacted me regularly, he sent photos and videos, and made everything easy and stress-free.
I will definitely be asking him to look after my little superhero next time I 'm out of town, and I sincerely hope he will accept. I promise things will be easier. I hope anyway. Please accept us again.
Loads of public thanks!

LondonOur cat Tishka gets very nervous when someone new comes to our flat. With Steve, it was completely opposite, from the very first minute they made good friends. After we returned from the holidays we found a perfectly happy and relaxed cat like we never left him alone. Steve kept us posted with nice photos and videos while we were away. I would highly recommend Steve as a professional, caring and dedicated cat sitter.
