HOW IT WORKS.........
My name is Sherrie, and I own Solent Cat Sitter. I work with a great bunch of lovely sitters who between us care for, and attend to your cat's needs while you are away.
​
I've always had cats, and when we went on holiday, they went to the local cattery - didn't think twice about it.
​
The cattery I took them to was lovely. It was run by a couple who clearly cared for my cats, and they were dedicated to their business and the tenants in it. But, my cats didn't like going!! They would howl all the way, and despite my best efforts to reassure them that they are going to a lovely cat hotel, they just didn't listen. I started to get stressed just thinking about them going, and feel guilty when leaving them in their little rooms at said cat hotel :( ........ sound familiar?
​
Then, I had a lightbulb moment....what if I could leave them at home and get someone who's job it is to come feed them? after-all, that's what I do when my friends and family ask me to care for their pets while away! I tried it, and it was fine, no problem. That was easy I thought..... I've never looked back since.

Some people prefer a cattery to pet home feeding, some do both! It's worth giving each one a go and seeing how your cat is after each one. I had to put my cat back into the cattery last year when we went on holiday as we had the builders in. She was fine, but I knew she'd of been happier at home it's just what I had to do to keep her safe, and give me piece of mind!
​
So, how does cat sitting work? The home feeding service for cats is suited to most cats. You can decide on the number of home visits to your cats. Each visit we check they're ok, change their feed, water and soil tray, give them a once over and have a quick chinwag before leaving them to get on with their day. If you have cat's that also like to go outdoors, but don't have a cat flap, then we've got a couple of options. We can visit once per day if you're cats are indoor cats, or twice a day - Once to let your cat out, and later that day to let them back in. Now, whether your cat decides to come in, is unfortunately out of everyone's control apart from kitty itself, so please bear this in mind!
​
"We" are a lovely bunch of cat-mad people, who love looking after cat's and have cats ourselves. You can view our profiles in the Guest Area.
