All animals, particularly cats, are a strong passion of mine. I just love them all, regardless of age, breed and temperament etc. I have many years of experience as a cats owner and I have always had pets growing up. I also have had dogs but I cannot say to be experienced with dogs. Sadly my lovely cat passed away and I am not ready to adopt another cat. However, it is a joy to be around cats and I would love to look after your pet. I was also a foster volunteer of a feline welfare charity in the past.
I am a caring and loving owner and I promise that I will follow your instructions exactly. I am able to give tablets and handle all type of food as you need. I am also very prepared on cats health problems.
I will make sure to give them attention, give them fresh water, feed them, scoop the litter boxes and, in particular, I will spend time with your pet. Cats with special needs feel welcome.
I fully understand it can be traumatic for pets to be away from their families so I will do my best to make the experience as enjoyable as possible, respecting the temperament of each pet. I am a pet owner who feels guilt when going on holiday and leaving the cat alone therefore I know how important is to keep you regularly updated on how they are doing.
I like to ride my bicycle but I also have my own car if any emergency occurs.
I am happy to visit pets at your home if you are not too far or have your pet in my house (I am at home all day).
I have 2 young children (both under 4) who are animal lovers too and very gentle and used to animals.
I am happy to have your pet at home with me, during the day or also overnight, if they are friendly and happy with young 2 children.
If you have any doubts feel free to ask
I look forward to meeting your lovely pets.

I am delighted with the way Marilena looked after my rather nervous cat Merlin.
Marilena visited a few day before I left to meet Merlin, and I could see immediately she had a real interest in cats and was very caring in her approach.
She was great in communication, sending me daily messages and photos. From the photos it was immediately clear that she was spending time with Merlin to build up his confidence - way beyond what I had expected. It made for a very relaxing break knowing that he was in such good hands. I returned to a very relaxed and content cat and an immaculate kitchen. I couldn't have asked for more.
I would thoroughly recommend Marilena as a responsible and professional cat sitter , and will definitely book her again next time I'm away.
A big thank you, Marilena. You looked after Merlin perfectly.
