About Me
Cog's Mogs
Hi there! I'm a confirmed crazy cat man!
I have always been around cats, having had at least one in the family since I was little. I have two moggies of my own at present, and often cat-sit for friends and family. I also have several years' experience of helping out at Lothian Cat Rescue, so I've handled cats of all shapes and sizes!
While I'm quite happy to pop in and feed your cats, I can also sit and stay for a while with your feline friend - cuddles or playtime, it's all good!
I'm happy to cover Midlothian, Edinburgh, East Lothian and Peebles, and can provide references. I have also been DBS checked.
Just give me a shout and let me know what you're after - I'll see what I can do for you!

PenicuikDaren has cat sit for us on a few occasions. He is reliable and always spends a good amount of time with Delilah, letting her our into her catio, playing with her favourite mice toys and getting cuddles.

PenicuikDaren has agreed to visit Zuza once more during the Christmas period which was an incredible help for us! And once again he's been very good with her - she even got a Xmas present! Thank you Daren for great communication, lots of pictures of Zuza and for giving her lots of strokes and love!

PenicuikOne of my cats can be a bit reserved around people she doesnt know. This is the 3rd time they have been cared for by Daren and he has definitely won them both over. The twice daily updates are very reassuring. They are looking forward to seeing him again next month

.I have had help from Daren a good few times now and he never disappoints ❤️ I came home to a very happy and settled cat after being away on holiday for a week. Daren put my mind at ease and took such good care of Bella while I was away. She just loves her Uncle Daren! ❤️ Thank you so much for taking such good care of my baby 🫂

PenicuikDaren has been a great cat sitter for Zuza - once again I came back from a short holiday to a happy cat. Communication with Daren is always great - he sends frequents updates and pictures of Zuza and I couldn't recommend him more! Thank you so much for giving me a peace of mind of leaving Zuza with someone trust worthy! Till next time! :)

-
Nicola M
PenicuikWe are so grateful to Daren for making our first experience of having a cat sitter for Delilah such a positive one. We loved seeing the photos and video updates that he sent us daily and knowing that Delilah was well looked after and doing totally fine in our absence. We would definitely book Daren to cat sit any time we need to go away again.

Morag C
PenicuikThis was the first time I have used a sitter. Despite Daren coming highly recommended, I was still a little anxious about leaving my cats. I needn't have worried. They were in very good hands. I've already booked Daren for next time.

Aleksandra D
EdinburghHighly recommended,cats are happy😊
-
Ershiana D
RoslinI've used Daren several times now and as always I have no complaints. He is super friendly and helpful and can definitely be relied on. When he fetches and drops my keys off, my cat always runs up to him to give him hugs so I know she likes him too. Thanks for your help Daren!
-
Colleen S
PenicuikDaren was an absolute star. Our cat Angus can be a bit standoffish but by the third visit he was sitting on Daren's lap and purring his head off! Daren sent regular updates and photos, and it was a real comfort knowing Angus was in good hands. I wouldn't hesitate to book Daren again and to recommend him to others!

.Daren is THE best! I went away on holiday for a week having never left Bella for as long as that ever, and I got several daily updates which really put me at ease. I've come home to a very content girl. Thank you so much Daren 😁 Til next time...

PenicuikDaren is a great cat sitter! When we came back home our cat was super chilled, happy and she even got some toys from Daren which was a very kind gesture! :) The communication was great, Daren sent updates every time he went to see Zuza. Thanks Daren and until the next time! :)

PenicuikDaren was, as usual, amazing with our little Sia. Considering she’s a covid cat that will only tolerate a handful of people, Daren is definitely one of them which means that we know she’s in safe hands when we log on holiday!

.Daren was amazing as ever with Bella. I knew I could go away and she was in good hands. She has gone from being really timid to being really good friends with Daren, which is so lovely to see! Thank you so much Daren. Me and Bella look forward to seeing you again soon!

.Daren is very reliable, very trustworthy and great with cats! My little Bella is very timid, but Daren manages to put her at ease. I wouldn't look for anyone else to look after her! Daren is fab! Look forward to seeing you again in the future as I'll certainly be booking you again. I know that my girl is in good hands with Daren 🙂 Thank you!

RoslinWe've used Daren a couple of times now. As always he is very reliable. I always come home to a happy cat. Daren always goes the extra mile and cleans Willow's litter out before we return. Thanks so much Daren! I definitely recommend him for anyone looking for a catsitter.
-
Ershiana D
RoslinThis is my second time using Daren. He was great with Willow and I came home to a happy cat. Love the daily updates / photos from Daren. Thank you Daren! I would definitely recommend him and I will definitely be using him again.
-
Jade M
PenicuikDaren has been great with our wee kitty. Having now looked after her for the third time, our scaredy cat has finally decided to befriend him - a major feat for the cat who has around three people that she trusts!
-
Ershiana D
RoslinDaren was a great cat sitter. He was both reliable and dependable. He took great care of Willow and sent us updates twice a day. She looked like she had a good fun with lots of play time and cuddles. We came back to a very happy cat and will definitely be using Daren again. Thank you Daren for taking such good care of our baby.
-
Louise S
.Daren was absolutely brilliant with my little Bella ❤️ It was the first time she'd been left alone and he helped alleviate the anxiety I had about leaving her. I knew she was in good hands. I thoroughly enjoyed the updates, photos and videos from Daren while I was away. I couldn't recommend Daren enough! An absolute pleasure to meet and trusted him completely with looking after Bella. Thank you so much Daren. I will certainly be booking you again soon! 👍🙂

PenicuikTwice we’ve used Daren, twice we have been very happy :)
-
Maddie B
PenicuikI would give more stars if possible, because Daren is a fantastic cat sitter! The daily provided updates with pictures and videos were fantastic, especially as it was the first time our furry friend stayed home for an extented period and it was so nice to see how they two got along. Thank you so much Daren, you are (p)awesome!
-
Arturs K
PenicuikHolly is a very social cat and can get a bit stressed when we are out for a longer period of time. Daren took a really good care of her though, making her feel very comfortable. Also loved the daily updates with photos. Thanks so much, Daren! Highly recommended!

PenicuikDarren was great with Lois even though our cat is a bit shy and grumpy with strangers! We had daily updates and photos and came back to a happy cat. I'll definitely be using Darren again the next time I need to go away.

PenicuikDarren is a fantastic cat sitter and we would love to have him back to look after our little Zima again. We met up 2 times before the cat sitting to ensure that cat took to him. Their bond was very clear and Darren made our cat feel relaxed in his presence almost right away. He thought about all of the little things - he came every day and sent us an update with pictures. When we ran out of litter and snacks he also picked up some. We were welcomed home with a happy and relaxed, happy cat, and a 1/2 pint of milk that Darren purchased for us knowing we had little in the fridge from being away abroad.
-
Susan A
EdinburghWill definitely recommend Daren to anyone who asks if I know a cat sitter. He did a fantastic job and I came home to very happy and relaxed cat's. Will also definitely continue to use Daren any time I need a cat sitter.

Rebecca McKinney
.Daren adores cats and will happily hang out, play and give them some love and attention while you are away. This was the first time we left our cats to go on holiday and it was reassuring to know they were in good hands.
