My name is Catherine Banahan. I am 31 years old. I am a South African that has fallen in love with London. My day job managing a company that teaches children how to code and so my hours are flexible as I work from home!

Being an ex teacher means I am punctual, reliable and extremely organised. I love going to the gym nearby and often go for walks along the river or in the park. I love animals and always try find ways to spend more time with them. I have house sat and pet sat for friends and family over the last 10 years in South Africa & London. Growing up we had 4 pets.

I have recently just adopted my own little British Shorthair Kitten called Onyx and I am absolutely obsessed with her! 🥰 Having my own pet again has made me realise how important cat/ pet sitters are when we are away. How much time, love & attention would I want a pet sitter to give to Onyx? Then I make sure give the same amount to others' pets!

I am available in the mornings, lunchtime and in the evenings. I will make sure to feed with your pet, spend some time +/- 20min playing with them and will always give them cuddles and I can give them some treats or special medication if needed (no injections though).

I am also happy to water plants, if asked to and I can bring in any mail left outside. I will most likely cycle to and from your house and will send update pictures at each visit.
