About Lauren

Hi 👋 I’m Lauren, a dedicated, cat-obsessed pet sitter covering Shawlands, Strathbungo, Battlefield, Govanhill, Mount Florida, Linn Park, Kings Park, Pollokshields, Pollokshaws, and surrounding Southside areas.

By day, I work in legal ops, but my true passion is animal care. While I specialise in cats - having grown up with them, rescued and fostered them for years, and currently sharing my home with my two Romanian rescue cats, Hermes and Cleo (a bonded pair). I am also an absolute dog lover. I am just as experienced with canine companions of all shapes and sizes, from tiny Yorkies and Pomeranians to larger breeds like Golden Retrievers and Wolfhounds.

Because of my background in cat and kitten rescue and fostering, I am exceptionally comfortable with all cat personalities - whether your kitty is a confident cuddle-bug, shy, a playful kitten, a senior with special needs, or even a little feisty. I excel at reading feline body language to ensure they feel safe, respected, and completely comfortable in their own home and in my presence.

My cat-sitting visits go beyond just feeding and water. I focus heavily on mental and physical enrichment, including interactive play, tailored toy rotation to keep things exciting, and plenty of individual fuss, treats, head and chin scratches and genuine attention to match their daily routine. I am also happy to extend this reliable, attentive care to dogs for walking or in-home visits.

I am fully experienced with specialised needs, including grooming, nail trimming, and administering oral or topical medication. To give you total peace of mind while you're away, I'm more than happy to help keep your home running smoothly by watering plants and opening/closing curtains etc.

Please feel free to drop me a message if you're looking for a dedicated cat-daft sitter (who also loves dogs just as much). I would love to meet you and your furry family members! 🐾🐈‍⬛🐕
