I want to make your cats time at home as fun, as relaxed and as enjoyable as your time away. I aim to give my human clients peace of mind knowing that their cats are comfortable at home, with company and care, with daily updates to help you keep in touch with what your furry friends are up to.


With over 30 years of cat ownership and 18 years of homeownership experience, I founded SK8 Cat Sitting, a specialized cat-sitting service. As an avid cat lover and caregiver, I bring extensive knowledge of feline care and behaviour, clicker training, and home care.
I currently have five indoor rescue cats and volunteer for a Greater Manchester cat charity, Rescue Kitties. My unique cat-sitting approach involves spending an hour with your cats, offering attention, enrichment, and thorough care. I prioritize understanding and addressing each cat’s individual needs.
Beyond cat care, I provide home monitoring, security checks, and essential household tasks, leveraging my level 1 construction skills for minor emergency repairs. With a background in caring for senior cats, I am adept at administering medication and supporting special dietary preferences (including BARF).
I love taking photos and writing, so I share these in the per-visit updates I send you.
I enjoy reading, knitting, hiking, walking, writing, photography, and learning Dutch and travel writing in my free time. I am dedicated to providing top-notch cat-sitting services, ensuring your feline friends and home receive the utmost care and attention.
Contact me so we can have a chat about your cat sitting needs. I can answer any questions you might have and we can book in a free “Meet & Greet” so we can all get to know each other better and to check that we are a good fit.
The free “Meet & Greet” is the opportunity to get to know each other better and to check we’re a good fit. During the meeting, we will chat about your cat’s needs and work together to create a comprehensive plan for your time away (including additional tasks such as sorting wheelie bins and post etc)
When you’re ready, you can book in your holiday dates with me and provide me with your spare key or lockbox details.
You can also update me with any additional instructions for your time away.
