About Me
Floof Sitting London
I am Marlon and I am currently an engineer at a tech startup and a private tutor for high school and university students. I have free time in the mornings, evenings and weekends, so I figured that pet sitting is an ideal task for me!
I am a long term supporter of animal welfare organisations such as Battersea Dogs and Cats Home, Animal SOS Sri Lanka and the Soi Dog Foundation. I have previously volunteered at an animal sanctuary where I looked after the cats 🐱 and dogs 🐶 there. Most of these were abandoned and stray animals who were rescued from the street, so I have experience with nervous animals.
You can see my encounters with various animals on Instagram: wijm02.
I have an enhanced DBS certificate (police check) and I can provide a scanned copy upon request.
Location
I live near Seven Sisters station so I can typically cover parts of North and East London (and anywhere else within 30 minutes of my location). Please let me know your full postcode when making an enquiry, since I use postcodes to work out my journey times and availability.
What I offer
As a pet sitter, I can:
- Feed your pets(s) 🐱🐶🐰🐭🐠
- Clean their litter tray(s) 💩
- Cuddle and play with them 🐈
- Water your plants 🌱
- Collect your mail 📮
- Send you photo updates of your fur baby, especially when I catch them getting up to mischief! 😉📷
- Do video calls with you while I'm with your pet 📞
Important information
I may be able (but cannot guarantee) to accommodate additional requests beyond those listed under "What I offer" and there may be extra costs depending on the nature of the request. Please inform me of any additional requests in writing through the messaging system on Cat in a Flat before we confirm the booking so that I can factor them into my schedule.
If you have any concerns before or during a booking, please do feel free to raise them with me immediately so they can be addressed — it would be in the best interests of your cat.
For overnight bookings, I will typically spend minimum 8 hours per day with your cat.
For daily visits, I will typically spend 25-40 minutes with your cat per visit. The length of time I spend depends largely on the cat's willingness to interact with me. I aim to visit on a regular schedule (e.g. every morning and/or evening) though I am unable to give guarantees on the exact time of day that I will visit your cat. Visits are typically done between 5:00am and 11:59pm.
My Reviews

Charlotte M
LondonMarlon did a fantastic job looking after our cat and two rabbits for two weeks over Christmas and new year. Communication was great before and during the job, with regular updates and sensible suggestions re keeping our pets safe in some bad weather. Marlon went above and beyond including cleaning out the hutch. Couldn’t recommend them more highly!

LondonMarlon is a very reliable, considerate and attentive cat sitter. He made a lot of effort to make our kitty comfortable and to meet his needs. While our kitty still had a lot to say to us to on our return, overall, he seemed happy and relaxed. I would definitely book Marlon again.

-
ADELE B
LondonMarlon is a wonderful cat sitter, and Tesla adores him!!! I always come home to a very happy cat 🤍
-
Louisa L
LondonThis is the second time Marlon has looked after Marley. Our cat is very shy but Marlon is kind, sensitive and kept updating me morning and night so I’d feel reassured while we were away. He is highly experienced and it’s clear that he loves cats! Would highly recommend.
-
Robert
.Marlon was great with our cat, who warmed up to him quickly (our cat is typically quite shy with new people). Our cat was happy when we returned home and we could tell he was well cared for.
Marlon sent us videos and pictures everyday of our cat playing and feeding. The litter tray was immaculately cleaned.
Highly recommended.
-
Juliet F
LondonI highly recommend Marlon who looked after my two kittens while I was away for the weekend. They were very shy but he took the time to try and get to know them and took excellent care of them. He was very reliable and communicative.
-
Calum H
LondonMarlon is a fantastic cat sitter. He was really thorough in making sure he got all the information needed in advance to make sure all of Séamus' needs were met when we were away. He gave great updates and videos. He is also very natural with cats, and gave Séamus the space and time to get to know him. By the end you could see he really trusted him.
-
Ed M

Naf C
LondonVery disappointing experience. Either one of the videos shared was not taken on the day Marlon claimed or he made a very short visit. We only found out after a friend stopped by our flat and noticed the mess in our living room
-
Ed M
LondonReliable and brilliant as always.
-
chris c
LondonMarlon is a wonderful cat sitter. Our 2 boys (maine coons) love spending time with Marlon, they rush up to see him when we do the key exchange and are very happy in his company. This is our 3rd sitting from Marlon and we have already booked the 4th - he provides updates which put our minds at ease and we would highly recommend booking him.
-
Regina K
LondonReliable as always. Marlon looked after Luna this time while we were in hospital expecting our first born to arrive. He was a huge help by leaving us with one less thing to think about.

-
Tiziana B
LondonMarlon was great! He came around before we went away to meet our cat and to make sure he had all the information he needed to take care of her. He sent pictures and kept us updated on how she was doing which was really reassuring. Reliable and friendly cat-sitter, would book again! :-)
-
Deborah M
LondonTwo happy cats. Lots of lovely pictures of Marlon allowing them to squish into bed with him. He has the patience of a saint with a large cat bouncing on him as an early morning alarm call!
-
Regina K
LondonI've now lost count of how many times Marlon has looked after Luna but each time has been effortless and stress free.

-
Tessa N
LondonThank you Marlon - both for responding to my very last minute booking so quickly and for doing a great job at looking after my cat. He made a lot of effort to ensure she was comfortable and happy with him. I also received pictures of her when he visited and took the time to pet her and put my mind at ease. I came home to a very chilled out cat and I would recommend him to a friend.
-
Deborah M
LondonPerfect service as always
-
Franky S
LondonMarlon is great! He makes thorough notes of all that your moggy needs, is very detailed with making sure he understands house stuff like keys etc, and send lots of clear communication and pictures while you are away to reassure you your cat is okay.

LondonMarlon was a great cat sitter. He visited Luna once a day, was subservient to her demand for cuddles. Communication excellent and trustworthy. He even checked our flat after Luna set the alarm off.
-

-
Marta J
LondonMarlon was fantastic, so thorough and caring - he went above and beyond to make sure he learned all about Ziggy and kept us up to date all along! Would definitely recommend
-
Fernanda & Dom F
LondonMarlon was fantastic with our 5-month kitten Joseph and the house! He visited 2x day and some days spent the night. Joseph is full of energy and needs a lot of play and cuddles. Marlon gave him all of that. We got regular feedback and lovely photos/videos from them playing and chilling together. After 3 weeks we arrived home to a happy, healthy and safe cat, and by observing his interaction with Marlon it was clear how fond Joe had become of him. I will certainly book Marlon again, and recommend him to all cat moms and dads out in London. Thank you for your love and attention to Jojo. :)
-
Naomi F
LondonMarlon was the perfect cat sitter! Came to meet our cat ahead of our trip with multiple questions and some dreamies to win him over. Great communication throughout our trip and we came home to a very happy cat!
-
Deborah M
Londonhappy kitties as always!
-
Steve H
LondonVery thorough initial meeting, communicated well, flexible, would recommend
-
Caterina S
LondonMarlon was great with my cat, they got along well, he updated me constantly with pics and I come home to a happy cat. The only down point is that the house was left quite dirty (yes it is not his job to clean it, but I expected a bit of clean as you go). Other than that all good, and would reccomend him to others!
-
Deborah M
LondonMy kitties had a lovely time with Marlon. Photo evidence of them eagerly awaiting Marlons arrival and their early morning wake up calls for attention!
-
Peyvand S
LondonMarlon loves cats and is very diligent !
-
Lydia v
LondonMarlon was absolutely brilliant, we felt totally relaxed knowing he was looking after our (quite feisty) kitty so well. He was organised and accommodating and we arrived home to a neat house, happy cat and thriving plants. We got daily photos which made us feel reassured and they were so nice to see when missing our cat whilst away.
-
Beatrice A
LondonMarlon is great. He was extremely caring and attentive to our cat and kittens. He sent daily updates and photos, and kept an eye on the littlest kitten who we had been worried about.
-
Deborah M
LondonHappy kitties on my return. Good to know someone keeping an eye on them during the floods!
-
Peyvand S
LondonMarlon is very diligent, pays attention to detail and clearly loves cats. I'm currently on my second booking with him.
-
Amanda T
LondonMarlon was a wonderful caretaker for our cat Gigi! He is fluent in cat language and made friends with Gigi very quickly! He made sure Gigi was fed and happy while we were away. Would have him again anytime!
-
Deborah M
LondonFantastic as always. Always good to see pictures of happy kitties enjoying food, cuddles and the opportunity to squash another human in their bed!
-
Glynn
.Marlon was reliable and took great care of my cats while I was away. Recommended
-
Deborah M
LondonAll good as is Marlons usual standard. As always I can go away with peace of mind knowing all will be okay at home. Lovely to see pictures of my kitties enjoying themselves
-
Dom H
LondonMarlon was friendly, professional and made our cat very happy. He helped to make our trip away very easy and I would definitely use him again. It. Was also great that he sent us pictures of our cat whenever he went round to feed him. Thanks Marlon! 🙂
-
Deborah M
LondonMarlon is very flexible and adaptable to my last minute bookings which is very helpful for myself and my kitties
-
Deborah M
LondonFantastic as always! The cats have started pushing me out the door when they see Marlon coming!!
-
Deborah M
LondonMarlon took on this job at last minute and was flexible about the booking despite my needing change plans last minute several times. My cats were fantastically happy to have him around as usual. Very reassuring too know they are in Marlons capable hands and to see daily pictures of them squashing him in bed, which he graciously allows!
-
Deborah M
LondonThe boys loved welcoming in the new year with Marlon! :)
-
Deborah M
LondonMarlon is very tolerant of my unfeasibly large cats insistence of sleeping on his head, or squashing him into a tiny portion of the bed to sleep in. This is an essential quality for any companion to my cat 🐱
-
Deborah M
LondonMy cats think Marlon has moved in. They are very happy about this :) Someone asked me recently whether my cat still harmed himself through over grooming when I'm away. I'd forgotten this was ever a thing as he is sooooo happy now. None of the old stress behaviours on my return :)
-
Deborah M
LondonHappy well fed and well cuddled kitties
-
Deborah M
LondonTwo very happy kitties as always 😊🐱🐱
-
Deborah M
LondonLots of videos of my cats getting exercise through play as their waistlines are expanding. Marlon also supported my cat to play with a slower release food ball which takes time and attention. They are very lucky cats
-
Deborah M
LondonReturned to two very happy kitties. Bottle of catnip left on the side gives clues to the party that was had in my absence
-
Deborah M
LondonGreat service as always. Lovely to see pics of my kitty happily tucked up with Marlon for the evening :)
-
Esther M
LondonMarlon was amazing, he came over before we went away to meet our cat Millie and to make sure he had all the information he needed to take care of her in our absence. He sent me pictures and kept me updated on how she was doing which was really reassuring. A really friendly, reliable cat-sitter. I felt very at ease leaving Millie at home knowing that he'd be checking in on her. Thank you!
-
Deborah M
LondonLots of photos of fun games. Now the vets put my cats on a diet Marlon introduced a game with them working for their food. He even tolerated my huge cat taking up much of his bed! I rest easy having to leave them when it’s with Marlon. Makes the world of difference
-
Deborah M
LondonBroady and Brogan were very pleased to have Marlon back for sleep overs after a long break. They were back to playing games and enjoying a cuddle. They are very content on my return as they have ben well attended to as always :). Iy gives me great confidence in being able to go away knowing my kitties will be so well cared for
-
Deborah M
LondonExcellent care is the norm. Marlon picked up my cat has over groomed slightly allowing fast action. Attentive to their needs. Usual happy pics of playtime
-
Deborah M
LondonLooked like all had a great time from the videos received! Much play and catnip!! :-D
-
Deborah M
LondonThe cats look like they are having a fantastic time with Marlon. One of my cats has been very distressed & was overgrooming when I left him with housemate, so I got marlon to come and stay the nights and he looks like he’s in heaven! Very reassuring
-
Deborah M
LondonMarlon had the challenge of looking after a slightly poorly cat on his first overnight stays. Very thorough communication and great efforts to comfort and de-stress my boy with catnip after the stress of medication
-
Deborah M
LondonReliable and communicative as always. We've come to expect a consistently high standard from Marlon :)
-
Caitlin L
LondonMarlon is great with our kitten - gentle, caring, interested , sensitive and sensible. Communications are good - he lets me know he’s on his way, then regularly sends me photos and updates of my little puss which, as a nervous kitten-mum, I really appreciate. Not only is he responsive to my kitten’s needs - whether it’s to sleep, play or climb onto Marlon’s shoulders (!) - but he’s also conscientious and punctual, which means that if I’ve made time-sensitive plans I can rely on him. Knowing I’ll be coming home to a happy kitten really takes the stress out of leaving him. All in all, I trust Marlin with my kitten, my plans and my home!
-
Deborah M
LondonCats looking as happy as ever to have marlon around :)
-
Deborah M
LondonLovely pics showing my very happy cats. They can be shy with strangers and have clearly embraced Marlon into their lives! I feel increasingly confident leaving them in Marlon’s hands
-
Deborah M
LondonThe photos. show that my cats are starting to fall in love with Marlon and his love of cats shines through also. There is always evidence of much play and fun, helped along with a bit of catnip!! :-)
-
Peer J
LondonOur cats seemed happy, the flat was very clean and Marlon was very diligent and kept us regularly updated. Thanks!
-
Deborah M
LondonMy cats clearly had a wonderful time with Marlon, and he clearly loves being around them. They were particularly happy when he came bearing gifts of catnip. He checked details such as whether I was happy with this or treats before I went away. Lovely pics showing me they were happy. They have a new friend and regular sitter :-)
