Katmaid

Katmaid My name is Tracey and I am a cat sitter in Cannock. I am Background checked and Insured. There's no advertising that you are away.

A cat sitter is a person who visits your home to feed, care and play with your cat whilst you are away. It's an ideal alternative to a cattery which can be very stressful to some cats. Cats are much happier staying where they feel safe and familiar, surrounded by the smells and sounds they know. I have now been visiting cats for 15 years and have a large client base so lots of references! It's als

o good for security reasons as i take in mail, can open/close curtains, water plants and i even drive an unmarked car! I can even have essentials waiting for your return. Text messages/emails can be sent as often as requested...including daily...for your peace of mind. Why I became a Cat sitter

The idea for me to set up my own business as a cat sitter stems back to when my Dad and his wife moved away from us and so I had to search myself for someone to feed my lot when we are away. I didn’t want to leave them in a cattery but our nearest cat sitter was a long distance away and the local pet sitters were more dog people. As I’ve always adored cats I thought it a brilliant business opportunity as there must be other cat owners with the same problem. So 15 years later here I am with a large customer base and have had the privilege of visiting a large number of cats; from tiny kittens to OAP’s (my oldest being 22 years young!). I have visited very very shy cats where I’ve had to work my socks off to get them confident enough to come to me and the other end of the scale, very bold cats that plonked themselves on my lap at the consultation! I’ve had to deal with the sadness of receiving emails/calls telling me a cat has passed away but then the excitement of those owners getting back in touch as they’ve adopted another cat. Each cat I visit has their very own personality and I’ve found none the same. One thing they all do the same is recognise me as the food and fuss lady, so once they’ve got to know me they happily greet me at the door which is a wonderful feeling!

From January 2026 I will be going into semi retirement. After another summer season of 10 - 12 hourly days, 7 days a week I've realised at 52 I can't do that anymore, especially with winter season also being very busy too. I'm exhausted 😩 My weekends that are booked off i organise everything that I can't do the rest of the time for then, so I get no rest then either 🙈 It's not easy admitting you dont have the energy you did when you were in your 30's, so I haven't come to this decision lightly.

●What does this mean?

I'm reducing my hours alot. I'll still work 7 days a week with my weekend off a month though. I won't be taking on new clients from today.

● What does this mean for you?

You need to get in my diary as early as possible. If you have dates in mind but not going to book yiur holiday just yet that's fine, i can pencil you in. I am taking bookings for 2026 & 2027 now. All I ask of everyone is if you don't need me let me know as soon as you know. I don't need a reason, just you don't need me. It has been frustrating recently not being told of cancellations until I get in touch just before the visits start and to know the cancellation was known about several weeks earlier. The earlier I know about it, the easier it is to fill that slot. It will mean last minute bookings with me will likely to be impossible.

● I still love my job! I still love all the cats I visit! I am NOT FULLY retiring for many years so don't worry about that!

I do hope you all understand and I will make sure my website and facebook No Service & FULLY BOOKED page is kept up to date daily to help you with planning

Whilst I was visiting Meatball a few weeks ago I noticed his new bed and thought how fab it was and how much my Pumpkin would love 1 🤣 So Meatball's Mum gave my details to the man who made it and today I picked up Pumpkin's bed ❤️ Isn't it fab!!!! I just have to varnish it and then it'll go in her catio 😻

He usually makes planters and has templates for a cat and all types of breed of dog and very very reasonably priced but will also make a bed size to your specifications like mine as i wanted to put the cat tent on it. So if you're interested send me a message and I'll pass on your details to him 😊
