Sarah - Cat sitter for Southsea & Baffins
Hi, I’m Sarah – your local cat sitter for Southsea & Baffins and a fully fledged cat enthusiast (some might say obsessed… and they wouldn’t be wrong!).

Hi, I’m Sarah – your local cat sitter for Southsea & Baffins and a fully fledged cat enthusiast (some might say obsessed… and they wouldn’t be wrong!). I am one of the longest standing sitters with Purrfect, having started in 2018. Since then we have grown mostly down to our exceptional service and I am proud to be part of that.
I moved from Southsea and now live in Baffins with my husband and our two cats, Maude and Edie – one classy little lady and one cheeky troublemaker, so I’m well-trained in handling all feline personalities! I’ve had cats ever since I left home at 16, and I genuinely can’t imagine life without them. My first cat lived to the grand old age of 22, so I’m in it for the long haul when it comes to cat love.
When I’m not working at the University, my favourite way to unwind is spending time with cats - whether that’s playtime, chin scratches, or just keeping them company while they judge me from across the room.
I know every cat is different (some are cuddle bugs, some prefer to admire you from afar!), so I always take the time to get to know
When I’m not working at the University, my favourite way to unwind is spending time with cats - whether that’s playtime, chin scratches, or just keeping them company while they judge me from across the room.
I know every cat is different (some are cuddle bugs, some prefer to admire you from afar!), so I always take the time to get to know their quirks, routines, and favourite fuss spots. My aim is simple: to make sure your cat feels happy, relaxed, and completely at home while you’re away.
I treat every cat like they’re my own—so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry boss is being well cared for (and probably a little bit spoilt too!). I am also able to administer insulin injections if required.

Gail - Cat sitter for Central Southsea
My name is Gail and I am one of the Southsea cat sitters.
I currently have two cats of my own who were found living on a shed roof. They have been with me now for three and a half years and are named Pan and Oreo.
The rest of my little family includes my husband, three children and a guinea pig named Cole. As well as cat sitting, I run several inclusive theatre groups in the local area.
I grew up with cats in my family home and couldn’t really imagine a house without them. I am so grateful that people trust me to go into their homes and spend time with the furry members of their families. It is a privilege to get to know so many cats and their humans!

Carrie-Ann - Cat sitter for Central Southsea
Hello! I’m Carrie-Ann and I’ve been living in Southsea for the past 8 years — long enough to confidently call it home and develop very strong opinions on where does the best coffee and cake.
I live with three very important tuxedo cats who generously allow me to share their house. In this photo, Lily (4) is on the left keeping a watchful eye on absolutely nothing, Vinnie (2) is on the right looking like middle management doing a shelf inspection, and below them is Poppy (6), sitting like she’s posing for an official royal por
I live with three very important tuxedo cats who generously allow me to share their house. In this photo, Lily (4) is on the left keeping a watchful eye on absolutely nothing, Vinnie (2) is on the right looking like middle management doing a shelf inspection, and below them is Poppy (6), sitting like she’s posing for an official royal portrait. She is, without question, the queen of the household and the other two are somewhere between loyal subjects and mildly chaotic assistants.
I grew up with cats, so becoming a full-time cat servant felt like a natural life path. Poppy arrived just before lockdown and honestly got me through a difficult and strange time. Lily and Vinnie joined shortly after and now I very much consider all three my children — despite contributing nothing financially and showing little appreciation for my efforts.
When I’m not being supervised by cats, I work at a university and go to Aquafit twice a week, where I enthusiastically splash around pretending it counts as exercise (it absolutely does). I also love baking and cooking — mostly because it gives me an excuse to eat the results.
But if I’m being completely honest, I’m happiest at home playin

But if I’m being completely honest, I’m happiest at home playing with the cats… or opening cupboards and discovering they’ve arranged themselves into neat little storage solutions.

Jack - Cat sitter for Central Southsea
I've been around cats my whole life growing up and in recent years. I currently have 2 black cats that live at my parents whilst I am at university.I I miss them a lot, so any chance to interact with cats is very much appreciated. We have been fostering a cat through Portsmouth cats lost found and re-homed, who has become a member of the family.
I am currently a student at Portsmouth university studying computer technology, however I am taking a year out to do some paid work and also take a break from Uni before my final year.

Vicki - Cat sitter for Milton and Southsea
Hi, I'm Vicki, purrfect Company cat sitter from southsea. I love cats. Obviously! I've been helping Heather look after your beautiful kitties in southsea for 5 years now.
Have previously owned cats and a lot of my friends would say I'm a wonderful cat mumma when I have their furry babies to stay when they go on holiday. I have recently attended a 6 hour cat first aid seminar run by a vet so have learnt many tips on how to keep your furry pal safe.
My full time job outside of cat sitting is a medical repatriation consultant. And when I'm not rescuing humans from their holiday or looking after cats my favourite ways to relax are with stand up comedy, live music or theatre. I hope to be able to help you out soon

Claire - Cat sitter for Milton, Eastney, Southsea & Baffins
I live in Milton with my husband, 2 children and my gorgeous boy - 1 year old black and white tuxedo cat Sunny! I enjoy keeping fit, running along the seafront and training for up and coming races. My favourite events are obstacle course Mud Runs! My children are very active and keep me busy with their activities cycling and dancing.
I have grown up with cats from the day I was born, all my family have always had cats and I’ve loved helping out when they have gone on holiday.
I love how our fur babies all have their own personalities and I enjoy learning their individual likes and dislikes.
Our Sunny is a little adventurer, he loves exploring. He has a gps collar so it’s great to see where he is and where he’s been! He also loves cuddles and sitting as close to our faces as possible!!

Hi, I'm Nicky from Southsea. I have grown up with cats all my life and have two of my own.
Batman has 'Catitude', loves to stick his tongue out at you and nothing in life phases him.
My other man Rocky is a 'princess' and demands a lap to sit on at all times. As well as my own cats I regularly look after my friend's cats when they are away and just love them all!

Danni - Cat sitter for North End
I currently live in North end with my partner and beautiful fur baby Pickle . She is 9 and we have had her since she was a kitten. Pickle is mainly an indoor cat due to the roads around where we live so we have built her her very own catio so she can enjoy some fresh air whenever she likes. When she isnt in the catio she is usually snuggled up on my bed or somewhere cosy.
She is my little best friend and I love her to bits .I have worked in retail and customer service for 20 years now and have always had a massive passion for animals and animal welfare . I regularly fundraise for the Stubbington Ark and am hoping to secure a place volunteering in the cattery there very soon. My other interests include home

Rachel B - Cat sitter for Fratton & Baffins
Having grown up with pet cats around me since birth, I simply couldn’t imagine a life without them! I was the proud ‘mum’ of two gorgeous black and white females Mitzi and Mollie, for 14 years and 17 years respectively, having had them from kittenhood to old age. I now have an adorable black rescue cat called Pepsi, who rules the house!

I now have an adorable black rescue cat called Pepsi, who rules the house! I have been a cat sitter since 2020, and in addition, I’ve looked after friends’ cats, helped rescue lost and stray cats, and am well-versed in administering medication, such as insulin, asthma pumps and tablets, to cats with health conditions.
Alongside cats, my other passion is writing and before taking a career break to return to university to embark on a master’s degree in creative writing, I worked in customer services and housing for over 20 years, so always striving to provide a great, flexible and personalised service is at the heart of everything I do.
I live in central Portsmouth, close to Fratton and North End and also love walking and live music. I am passionate about animal welfare and about preserving, respecting and enjoying nature and wildlife.

I look forward to meeting you and them.
