About Me

Cat sitter in Kent

Hi

By day I am an English teacher at a school in Chatham and by night I love and cherish my furries Luna and Phillip. As I live in Gravesend, any sitting jobs within both areas of Gravesend and Medway are possible.

I grew up with cats as my mum used to be a cat breeder and also showed cats, and so it was inevitable that when I moved out of the family home I would get my own cat's.

I absolutely love cats and also 'get' them - their weird quirky ways and how they absolutely love (and need!) routines, which is why it is probably better to leave them in their home than to place in a cattery.

As a teacher I am DBS/police checked. This does obviously mean that the month of August is pretty clear for me!

    We was so happy with Layla and felt comfortable with her from our first meeting. She kept us updated every day on the cats whilst we were away and will definitely be using her again. Thank you Layla for all you did .

    10/10 as usual. We can always relax when Layla is taking care of Cherry. They’re old friends now. Would always recommend.

    Brilliant service as usual, always happy to leave the kitties with Layla. They always get that extra bit of attention and are healthy and happy when we get home. 10/10.

    We are so pleased to have found Layla via Cat In A Flat, to look after our ailing Persian during a short break away, & would recommend her to others, as we have no hesitation in rebooking her!

    5 star treatment for the kitties as usual. Always let’s us relax on holiday knowing they are being well looked after. Thanks Layla!

    Layla looked after my cat as if he were her own. I got daily photo updates and she stayed for ages to play with him and entertain him. He was happy and healthy and energetic when we got home, and Layla was a pleasure to deal with.

    Thank you so much for looking after our kittens! We were worried leaving them, but Michaela was amazing and updated us with photos on how they were doing. We are so appreciative of your time and help looking after Mia and Melon. Highly recommend her!

    Layla provided a 1st class service as usual. She always looks after our cats as if they were her own, sending pics to keep us up to date and spending that bit of extra time to make sure they are OK. Couldn’t ask for more.

    Thank you Layla for looking after our two so well. Reliable and great communication. Our shy cat seems to have taken a liking to you which is a hard task!

    Layla is absolutely lovely - she made sure she contacted us before the trip and let us know during the trip how Blossom and Cherry were doing. The cats were really contented when I got home and they really did like her.
