Gail is gold dust. She has years of experience with cats and I feel completely comfortable leaving my cats in her care. Gail is thoroughly reliable,honest caring and clean. I know my house is in safe hands with her. Gail is happy to draw the curtains or put the bins out etc. if needed. She is not at all bothered by dealing with hair balls sicked up, remains of dead mice and other cat habits. After years of either using catteries with my elderly cat distressed and being sick on the way or sat sitters who were really mainly dog walkers I am over the moon to have found Gail and have already booked her again. Now I can plan holidays without the dread of not really wanting to go through worrying if my cats would be unhappy. Definitely 5 stars! Andrina Buchanan
‘’Gail was fantastic from start to finish, making sure that our minds were at ease whilst on holiday. After years of relying on neighbours and friends to feed our cats on an ad hoc basis, it provided peace of mind for both of us that somebody was looking out for their welfare. Gail is happy to go the extra mile and make sure that the house is safe whilst you are away and that there are no unpleasant litter box surprises when you return. We will definitely use Gail again next time and thoroughly recommend her service to anybody looking for a friendly and easy to use cat-sitter.’’
Great service by a lovely person, and we had no hesitation in trusting Gail to take care of our much loved kitten whilst on holiday, and with the benefit of checking in on our home too. We also really appreciated the text updates and photos. Very happy to recommend her service.
I have just used Kitty Sitter for the first time and will certainly be using the service again. Gail was quick to respond to both emails and texts and I was very impressed at how organised and professional she was when she came to meet my cat Faith. When I returned from my holiday everything was in order and I was greeted by a very happy cat who obviously enjoyed staying at home much more than going to the cattery. Wishing Kitty Sitter every success. Carolyn & Faith.
"I was delighted to find Gail, the Kitty Sitter, exactly what our cat Missy had been looking for. She is kind, professional, loves cats. She looked after Missy whilst we were away. We were very comforted to know that Missy was being looked after in her own home and that she did not have to go into the Cattery. Gail looked out for her, took care of her and made sure she was eating and was in good health. Thank you so much. Will definitely be asking Gail for help again. Thank you!
'Gail is a lovely lady who clearly loves cats. She was interested in my Stella as an individual and took the time to comb her as Stella loves this. Gail also showed consideration to a member of my household who is there sometimes and works long hours by checking if there were times of the day most or not suited to her visits. '
I have no hesitation in recommending Gail. All went very smoothly during our recent week’s holiday. It was reassuring to know that our cat was in very safe and caring hands. Great to have other household matters taken care of too (bins taken out), which was much appreciated.
Gail is the perfect cat sitter. She looks after your pets as if they were her own. It is so reassuring to know that while you are away your cats are being well fed and cared for. Gail also sent us an update text and a photo when we were away. What a treat it was to come through the door after our holiday to find the house smelling fresh, and with the cat tray clean and nearby floor spotless. Gail is a lovely person and clearly loves cats. This means we can go on holiday leaving our cats in her safe hands and with our minds at ease. We will use her for our future holidays and are happy to recommend her service without any reservations.
"Gail was a brilliant sitter for my two young kittens. Very professional, reliable and you could tell she cared about her work"
Since getting a new job and having to travel a bit with work, Gail has made quick trips away so easy. It's great not having to do multiple journeys to the cattery and my cats are much happier staying at home. It is obvious Gail has a love for cats and I can be confident that they'll be well looked after and spoilt while I'm away, with the added bonus of knowing my house is safe. I get text and photo updates for reassurance that all is okay, including of the wee stray that has adopted me! Nothing is too much trouble. I would definitely recommend Gail to anyone looking for a cat sitter!
Gail looked after our two cats when we were on holiday, she was fantastic. Gail sent us pictures of them and gave us updates. Our cats and our house were in great hands, Gail also put our bins out for us when we were away. I can’t recommend Gail enough we will definitely be using Gail when we go away again . A 5 star service!
Gail from The Kitty Sitter looked after our cat while we were away over Christmas. I was impressed by her professional and caring attitude and we returned home to a much more contented cat than when he was in a cattery. We will definitely be using Gail again as a cat sitter and there is the added bonus that somebody is keeping an eye on your house while you are away! Janet Graham Cambusbarron
"I have known Gail for 31 years. As a known and trusted cat lover I was delighted when she set up a business looking after cats. I can now go away on holiday knowing that "Shug" the Maine Coon and "Ed" the elderly stray will be loved and looked after. Can't recommend her enough."
Great job! Gail looked after our two cats for a couple weeks at the holidays. She kept our house safe and communicated with us whilst we were away. We returned to happy and healthy pets. Would definitely recommend and will be using her services again in future.
July 2020 "We were recommended the Kitty Sitter by a friend when we were going for a week's holiday but were worried about our little cat who gets anxious when we're away. Gail was fantastic from the first communication & very accommodating, nothing felt like too much to ask. She even fed the fish! We were able to relax on our trip, knowing everything at home was in very good hands. I would highly recommend Gail to anyone looking for a caring cat sitter."
July 2020 We left Gail with our house & 2 cats for 10 days and all was perfect on our return. The cats were very happy and had been well fed & loved and even our plants looked healthier than when we had left them! Gail communicated with us throughout our trip by sending updates and photos and used her initiative in propping up our giant sunflowers that were starting to topple, popped our bins away & opened/closed curtains & secured our home all helping to make it look & feel like normal as much as possible. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gail, she is very efficient, professional, honest and reliable and will do you a great job. We will certainly call on her services again. JEG (Stirling)
August 2020: So good to leave my cat Lula in safe hands. I could enjoy my holiday knowing Lula was well looked after with food, clean litter and lots of cuddles. Gail was fabulous keeping in touch and came home to a very happy pussy cat. She also fed the hamster too so bonus! Thanks Gail. 😃
August 2020. We recently moved to Stirling and found Gail's cat sitting services via a Google search. Gail recently looked after our cat and she was absolutely brilliant! Our cat Ylva is very shy with other people and Gail was so patient with her and made her feel as comfortable as possible. While we were away she took out the bins, closed curtains and blinds and brought in parcels that had been abandoned at the door! She sent us just the right amount of updates/pictures of Ylva while we were away. We felt completely relaxed leaving Ylva with Gail and it was reassuring and appreciated that Gail went the extra mile and made sure our house was ok too. Gail is very friendly and easy to talk to. She is very organised and on the ball, and clearly knows how to look after cats, and how to work with their different personalities! We look forward to asking Gail to look after Ylva again and would recommend to anyone else in the area needing a cat sitter! A 5 star service. Thank you Gail! Rebecca Foster and Simon Strain.
October 2020 I found Gail by chance and what a find! It took the stress out of going away completely. I have an elderly cat (who likes the quiet life now) and a younger one ( who is crazy!) so I felt it was a little stressful for my older one in a cattery now. Being able to leave them in their own house, coming and going as they please was great and not to mention no stress of drop offs or pick ups! I felt they were in great hands, she even put lights on and brought my milk in! I'll definitely be using her again and would highly recommend.
June 2021. Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking such good care of Faith while I was away on holiday for a few days. Kitty Sitter is invaluable to me I know both my cat and my home are in safe hands and I have nothing to worry about. I am also very grateful for the addition services you happily do like putting out my milk bottles and bringing in my bins. Going away is so much simpler, leaving my shy cat at home instead of trying to bundle her into a basket and take her to the cattery which I know she hates. Kitty Sitter has transformed my holidays and I would be totally lost without this wonderful service. Many thanks again Carolyn and Faith 😺
June 2021. I have been using Gail to look after our elderly cat when we are away for a couple of years now and can't recommend her highly enough. Our cat is so much happier being in his own home and getting daily attention from Gail. She is happy to give him medication when needed and will always check with us if she has any concerns. There is also the added bonus of knowing your house is being looked after while you are away: heavy bins being put out, plants watered, curtains opened and closed, nothing seems to be too much trouble. Gail is a real treasure!
July 2021. “We used Gail for the first time this summer for our two kittens, the first time we’ve left them alone! From the moment we first met we felt we were in very safe, capable, cat-loving hands. Gail kept us regularly updated and even sent photos of the kittens to us while we were away which was lovely. Returned home to two happy cats and a clean litter tray! Would not hesitate recommending Gail and her kitty sitting services!”
December 2021: We relocated to Stirling in 2020 so I researched all the local cat sitters and decided Gail was the best one to look after our two cats. Gail was very understanding when our Christmas 2020 trip cancelled. We finally got away this Christmas and the cats were very well looked after by Gail. When we got home everything was clean and tidy and I could tell the cats had been well looked after. We'll definitely be using Gail again and I highly recommend her.
January 2022. We use Gail's kitty sitting services at least a couple of times a year to look after our ragdoll boys and have done so for a few years now. They used to go to a cattery but found it a bit stressful. Now they can chill out in the comfort to which they've become accustomed. Gail looks after the boys so well. I wouldn't dream of using anyone else. Gail is reliable, professional and always sends updates on the boys when we're away. First Class!
February 2022: The Kitty Sitter has become my go to service for cat sitting for my kitten, Boots. Gail is very good and very accommodating. Very professional service. I think Boots looks forward to me and my partner going away to get an empty with Gail and sometimes her daughter Hannah! Gail keeps updated with photos and WhatsApp messages which really puts my mind at ease knowing my little furball is in safe hands. Thank you 😊
April 2022: Gail has cared for our cat Tammy on several occasions when we've been away. Gail is brilliant to communicate with to arrange bookings, she always responds promptly. It is clear from the regular updates we receive when away how much Gail loves cats and how much our timid cat loves having Gail to visit. The photographs always show our girl looking very relaxed and happy. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Gail to anyone looking for a cat sitter as you have full peace of mind your cat will be well catered for.
May 2022:- 'Gail was wonderful - she showed our kitty a lot of love and attention, and even though we were missing him very much, we knew he was in good hands. She sent us regular updates and pictures so we could see how Buźka was doing. We are very grateful and we will definitely ask Gail again to take care of our cat when we're away. We highly recommend Kitty Sitter and her services 😃 ' xx
July 2022: "Gail has been brilliant from the first time she met Luna and put my mind at ease immediately. Nothing is ever too much for her and she always keeps me updated. 10/10"
September 2022: I found Gail by googling cat sitters near me. I couldn't believe I had found someone close to where I live. After the first telephone conversation I felt more at ease. Then when I met Gail - I was over the moon. She is very professional, and my cat loves her. The photos sent were proof my cat was obviously having a great time. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Gail.
October 2022: Gail was a wonderful and reliable carer for our wee cat Miso. She kept us updated on his carry-ons with regular photos twice a day and also with reassurance and a great quality of care and attention to his needs. He was always happy to see her, and we were so relieved she was there for him. She went beyond the call of her duty, and we are delighted to recommend her and will certainly be calling on her again. Thankyou Gail!
Review by Scot Mathieson October 2022: Gail was able to help us out at short notice and took on visiting our cat when we were away for six nights. She visited our home to meet our cat and find out everything she needed to know to care for her and has a very professional, efficient and friendly approach. She sent us daily messages and photos and our cat was in fine fettle when we came home. I’m very happy to recommend the services of Gail, The Kitty Sitter.
January 2023: Huge thanks to Gail for her time , care and attention looking after my 2 furries whilst we were away on holiday . Recommendation came via my neighbour and I’ve likewise recommended her superb cat sitting professional service to others because she's offers a tremendous, hassle free , above and beyond service second to none. Reassuring texts and photos while you’re away of the cats , whereabouts and shenanigans! As far as tidying up the trail of cat food , litter and bins . Without hesitation Gail is the best kitty sitter we have in Central Scotland! Thank you 🙏
May 2023: Gail from the kitty sitter was a fabulous find. She looked after our two elderly cats at the last minute this year. There is an immediate warmth to Gail, absolutely reliable and trustworthy. She was more than happy to send pictures an updates of our moggies when we were away and also carried out the little things like taking the bins out, opening curtains etc. Complete peace of mind and a five star service. We will definitely be booking again!
May 2023: We are so pleased we found Gail, she took great care our cat while we were away by spending time with him, cleaning up after him, and keeping us up to date with how he was. She was really professional, quick to respond, and was happy to do an extra unexpected visit for us. We highly recommend her, thanks Gail! Thanks again, Julie and Stuart
June 2023: Gail completely understands cats, their quirks and how they should be treated - and how they may treat her too! 😂 Gail has been absolutely amazing with our pair and watched our 2 cats for an extended period as we weren't around for a few weeks: I'm pretty sure they wonder where she is! Rates are very fair from the Kitty Sitter, I'd recommend Gail to anyone for cat sitting, she's very friendly, knowledgeable and trustworthy. We've been delighted with this service and fully intend to keep engaging with The Kitty Sitter - as long as she'll have us!
June 2023: So happy to have found Gail! From first contact she’s been professional, her communication is top notch and her standards second to none. We’ve always come back to a clean house with happy kitties, what more can you ask for. Would highly recommend!
August 2023: Gail has been an amazing cat sitter for our timid indoor Martha. She spends real quality time with her, and thoughtfully sends photos of her while we’re away. Gail is accommodating, thorough and communicates anything necessary (taking out/and returning bins when needed is a great help too). We’d trust her to look after Martha any time and she always leaves some amazing treats for an already very spoiled kitty! Darren and John, Bridge of Allan.
December 2023: I was so delighted to discover the Kitty Sitter and start using her services. It's such a relief to know my cat (and flat) are in such safe hands, and I love getting update photos showing a chatty happy moggy whilst I'm away. Gail has been unfailingly helpful and clear with all her messages and arrangements, and it's lovely for me to know that all is well when I'm not there.
June 2024: Found Gail when panicked as my regular sitter disappeared. She was fantastic, responded right away, understood the pickiness of my very loved but very spoiled Poe Cat, and totally got my sense of humour. I got regular updates on how things were going, with photographic proof that she has the golden touch as Poe allowed her to get near him with a brush!! I came home to a happy cat after two weeks away, the floors were suspiciously kitty litter free, the bins taken care of, and mail neatly put away on the counter. Would not hesitate for a second to recommend Gail and am happy to say that I will be contacting her again for future cat sitting needs.
July 2024: 'Gail is a true cat whisperer! She made friends immediately with my house cat during her initial visit, and she sent photos of them playing every day, which was super reassuring. Arrived home to a very happy cat - fabulous option for cats who like their home comforts. Will definitely use the Kitty Sitter again next time we’re away!' X
October 2024: Gail has looked after my cat Oscar on two occasions and I would have no hesitation on recommending her to anyone who wanted a caring and professional cat sitter to look after their furry felines. She won Oscar's heart on first meeting by arriving armed with cat treats. She sent me pictures of Oscar when I was away and I arrived home to a happy and well fed cat. Five stars.
