About Me

Cat sitter in West Bridgford Nottingham

Hi I am Rabi, 61 years young and worked most of my time in IT in the banking industry. Retirement has been mostly cooking, playing golf, visiting family in Portugal and sometimes being a good house husband to my long suffering hard working wife of nearly 40 years. The most important part of being a house husband involves being a slave to our adorable little monsters Oyvind, Xuxa and Chudleigh. These Norwegian Forest Cats are only allowed out in our back garden under supervision so litter trays are just something that one does. I have lived in West Bridgford for the last 31 years and have got to “know” some of the local cats when walking to the shops, bars and restaurants. The only time I can remember not having cats was when in full time education , Boarding School and College and even then often looked after cats for neighbours and friends. I am happy to do as many visits as required, feed, fuss , spend time, give medication and follow any other of your master’s needs. I will also happily water your plants, gather mail, switch lights on and off, put the bins out etc. Working in the banking industry for all those years is proof that I am reliable and trustworthy and feel certain that I will gain 5 star reviews from all my clients.

    Rabi did a great job, especially as we have a poorly kitten. He proactively also watered the plants and took the bins out, which was an added bonus! Definitely recommend him.

    Rabi was amazing with our cats, Mac and Duke, while we were away for the week. He sent daily pics and videos, so we always knew they were doing great, and kept us updated on anything happening at home. Came back to two very happy, well-cared-for cats. Highly recommend Rabi—thank you!

    Wow! Rabi is great. My cat loved Rabi from the moment they met and I felt entirely comfortable handing over the keys to my home and reassured that my cat would be very well looked after. My cat has a tendency to be a little difficult and I was confident that Rabi would be able to cope as he has many years of experience with fur babies. He is honest and trustworthy and he even put out the bins and picked up my mail. I think Dave the cat was miffed I had come home as he had got very attached to Rabi and was missing being fussed so much. The daily updates were much appreciated and reassuring and it allowed me to relax and enjoy my holiday with complete peace of mind knowing that my fur baby was receiving amazing care. I will be using Rabi again as he reliable and Dave the cat loved him, possibly a bit more than me! Thank you Rabi you are a star.
