Self Employed Catsitting Job Opportunity!!!

Availability across TWO Edinburgh Cat Sitting Companies - Animal Antics AND Animals First Care. So an abundance of work depending on your willingness to travel.

Due to high demand, we have opportunities for people who are passionate about all things cats, to join our small team of crazy cat ladies. Ideally you live in the Edinburgh/Winchburgh/Gorebridge/Dalkeith areas (depending on which postcodes you’ll cover) for ease of key exchanges, but not essential.

If you are looking for work doing a feel-good job, can provide outstanding customer experience for both the cats in our care and their humans and have availability all year round then working with us could be the perfect job for you.

Hours will vary weekly depending on time of year, but the ideal candidate must be able to work mornings and afternoons/ evenings, shifts will include mid-week and weekends, Christmas and New Year. We have a variety of hours available and could be pretty flexible for the perfect candidate. We cover most areas in Edinburgh, so an enjoyment of driving and tolerance of Edinburgh’s roadworks is essential.

You will be working with cats of different characters and life experiences, some nervous, anxious, so a quiet and empathetic nature is necessary. You will understand how their emotions and health can manifest into different behaviours. We care for many elderly cats and cats with chronic illnesses, so you will be able to recognise when a cat is becoming unwell and take prompt action.

You will have:
😻Fantastic attention to detail and apply this when following cat care plans that have been created with the cats' owners and/or us (essential)
😻Experience of working with cats/animals within the animal care/welfare industry (essential)
😻Experience, and enjoyment, of working with the general public
😻Sound literacy and numeracy skills
😻Animal care/welfare qualification or working towards one (desirable)
😻A caring/loving mind set centred upon the wellbeing of all the cats in your care (including playing and interacting with cats)
😻A good sense of humour and enjoy exchanging whatsapp messages with clients
Requirements:
😺 Self-employed (willing to register with HMRC)
😺Police checked (PVG member with recent certificate))
😺Clean drivers License and own car
😺Business car insurance
😺A mobile phone with a great camera and good/unlimited data allowance
😺Experience and competency in administering oral medication and injections to cats (desirable but not essential as training will be given)
😺References of animal care experience

How to apply:

Another recommendation for Joanne’s Dog and Cat Grooming in Portobello!
Simba has been going for years but it was Enid’s first ever professional groom today, no more tummy matts or dead hair for this beautiful girl! She was cuddled and adored throughout the whole process AND the team managed to keep her coat long and beautiful in the visible areas but trimming down the troublesome bits (tummy and under arm)!
Enid has been delighted all day 🖤
takes the most wonderful care of my cats and is taking on new clients! Go get your furballs pampered!

HAWK! Not even 6 months old and you’re already bigger than Wolf! He has a beautiful sister (Astrid) that is his absolute double and is still available!
If you were on the fence, take this as your cue. Your house definitely needs a kitten. For sure! A well rounded, happy, giant kitten 🤣🖤🤣
Happy Monday everyone. Now get tap tap tapping that message to 😻 because I cannot recommend them enough.

Please keep a look out for Mary 🖤

So proud of this little guy! This is him tonight, back to cleaning his own face, watching the birds and loving being part of the evening TV routine!
6 days ago I came home to him covered in drool and blood, having lost a whole canine. He was in so much pain, got rushed to the Emergency Vets who made him comfortable! I requested his notes today and at that appointment he was described as QAR (quiet, alert, responsive) followed by ‘lovely boy’! This little dude was obviously in so much pain and still, was a lovely boy for the vet!
Simba is one of my three rescue moggies, he had a truly awful start in life, suffered an aspiration pneumonia and STILL is a beautiful soul.
A lesson to us all. Be kind like Simba 🖤

‘Soft eyes’ - the look that cats give you, often before a Slow Blink which as we all know, is a physical form of endearment in cat language! When cats look relaxed and have this ‘soft eyes’ expression, they feel safe and comfortable. Thankyou Roubles, we are honoured. Learn your cats body language for a happy home 🖤

Well would you look at that! You lucky folks of Stockport have another fabulous Pet Sitter and Dog Walker in the mix.
My big sister has joined the ‘best job in the world gang’ and started her own Pet Care Business.
It would mean the world if you could show her some support by following her page and passing on her details to people you know in the area 🖤

It’s official! It arrived. My medal for completing the 10K run at the end of May 🖤.
Thankyou SO much to everyone that sponsored me, I was totally blown away by your kindness and generosity.
If anyone would still like to donate, I’m keeping the page open for the weekend and then will close it on Monday. We’re SO near to hitting £1000 so every penny counts.
The link is in my Bio.
Thought I’d take the picture with one of my lovely rescues, Simba. He’s furious he’s being used for content but I will pay him in many Dreamies which should suffice 🤣🖤.
THANKYOU everyone x

Enid is looking particularly happy this morning because we are in the last few weeks of accepting new clients and we’ve loved how many joined us in April and having the chance to meet all the wonderful new cats! We would LOVE for more of you to join the Animal Antics family 🖤🤍🖤! Registrations will close by the end of May, ready for the busy Summer Season ahead and will reopen later in the year.
There is lots more information about pricing, areas we cover and what we do on our website - link in Bio.
Registrations can be done online via the ‘Clients Page’ and then you’ll receive an email to arrange a 121 introduction meeting with Ffi. This is where you can ask us heaps of questions, tailor the service to your cats needs and most importantly, make sure you and your cats feel comfortable with us!

There are some cats that are just the gentlest, kindest little beings! Peeps is exactly that! The fact that he is beautiful with whiskers for days is just an added bonus 🖤
