First class 5 star service

We have been using Tracey's cat services since 2012 after a couple of unfortunate incidents with catteries. Tracey is a true jewel and has made our holidays guilt free with our two cats well cared for and never having to go away again. Not only does she feed and builds up a relationship with your cats but moves the post, waters the plants, puts the bins out and for all intense and purposes looks like your home is occupied. Thank you Tracey for a first class 5 star service.

Mr & Mrs S, Heath Hayes

The one to choose

Tracey is a star. If you are having any doubts about leaving your precious bundles of fur with a pet sitter Tracey is the one to choose. We would highly recommend her and shall be definitely using her in the future.

Having a very elderly (20yrs), totally blind cat with a few health issues, in need of lots of TLC, cleaning up after, daily medications and a special daily cooked diet we knew was a big ask when trying to find someone to look after him whilst we were away, especially as a few of the pet sitters we had contacted previously to Tracey had said they would rather not take him on, but we needn't have worried. Tracey had no hesitation in agreeing to care for our cat along with our fish and hamster too.

I don't think we were the easiest of customers as I forgot to empty some food stuff out of our fridge but a phone call to Tracey and she dealt with that. We also decided to extend our holiday for a few extra days whilst we were away and Tracey had no hesitation in accommodating us for the extra days care required for our pets at such short notice.

It was lovely to return home to happy well cared for pets....Thank you Tracey.

Mrs L, Heath Hayes

Awesome Job

Just wanted to say thank you for doing such a great job with my 2. I think I mentioned, I've used services like yours before, although they've tended to be 'pet sitters' rather than specifically for cats. Every time I've been away for long periods before, they've usually been a little freaked out when I got back and taken a couple of days to get back into their normal routine. This time, they were both as happy and relaxed as they were when I left them, like I'd never been away. So, thanks for the awesome job, I will be coming to you again next time. :)

Mr E, Staffordshire

Always professional, kind and caring

I cannot speak too highly of Tracey – the proverbial “Treasure”!. Always professional yet so kind and caring to the cats. Even my nervous rescue cats go straight to Tracey and so love her visits receiving not only food and litter attention but playtime, grooming and lots of cuddles….I have 110% confidence in all aspects of Tracey’s care.

Mrs G, Stafford

Reliable and Trustworthy

Tracey is reliable and trustworthy. Since using Katmaid’s service this has made our holidays hassle and guilt free. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tracey and the fantastic service she offers.

Mr & Mrs S, Heath Hayes

Excellent Pet Sitting Service

Tracey has given us an excellent pet sitting service since 2010 and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to any other pet owner.

Mr & Mrs L, Stafford

Always Took Good Care

We put our trust in Tracey to look after our precious Lucy when she was really old and needed a lot of care as she was so fragile. She was 21 when she passed away and Tracey always took good care of her.

Tracey now looks after our Phoebe who is a very nervous rescue cat and NEVER comes out from hiding for anyone. Tracey is the only person apart from me and my husband who has gained her trust and won her round and our minds are at complete rest now whenever we go away on holiday and we know Phoebe looks forward to her visits.

Mr & Mrs N, Hednesford

Thank You

Just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for looking after Polly and Olivia. It was reassuring to get the text messages and also to get the photos that you took. We will have no hesitation to contact you again.

Mr & Mrs A, Stafford

Excellent Service

Tracey provides an excellent service. My youngest cat has an immune deficiency which makes him ill when he is stressed, after each stay in a cattery he was ill and a substantial vets bill followed. Since Tracey has been looking after them there has been no illness at all. Obviously a happy cat! Tracey is instantly trustworthy and is very helpful, also feeding our fish and watering the plants for us. A great find, well recommended.

Mr & Mrs R, Rugeley

Happy Cats in Cannock

The cats were the happiest and most content we have ever seen them. They were looking excellently well cared for by Tracey…Tracey provided a personal service and put us and the cats at ease. We would never use a cattery after using Tracey’s service. The cats were so content and even missed Tracey; kept looking out the window after her. Thank you Tracey!!! You gave us a great holiday knowing the cats were safe with you!

Mr M & Mr B, Cannock

Always Extemely Pleased

I have used Katmaid for weekends, holidays and other odd days for over 4 years and I have always been extemely pleased with the care taken of my feline family. My house is secure, my cats are safe and my plants are watered. I always go away from home knowing that my house, contents and cats are in good hands.

Ms E from Heath Hayes

More Than Just A Cat Sitter

You are more than just a cat sitter. You watered our baskets outside, collected our mail and provided a loveley report on Tiggy's holiday with you. We loved all of the photographs and it is proof that you did attempt to play with him even though he is not the most playful cat. He enjoys human company and you gave him enough of that because we came home to a chilled out pussy cat!

Ms G & Mr R from Uttoxeter

Good Service in Lichfield

Conscientious in Stafford

Very good, very conscientious and the cats were very well looked after.

A Very Pleasant Lady

You are a very pleasant lady and I feel quite content to let you into my home.

Good Care in Lichfield

Many thanks for taking such good care of our cats and especially for coming to the rescue when Lewis decided to go shopping.

Very Satisfied in Wimblebury

Very satisfied. Tracey is professional and obviously loves cats.

Miss S, Wimblebury

Very Pleased

Very pleased especially liked the report about the cats upon our return. Thank you.

Mrs W, Rawnsley

Great Peace of Mind

We thought it was excellent that we could text/ring you whilst away to get a progress update. This gave us great peace of mind and we really appreciated your response. Thanks Tracey.

Mr & Mrs C, Stafford

Very Happy

I was very happy with the service you provided and am using you again and again and again!

Miss M, Stone

Obviously Loves Cats

We felt very comfortable leaving our cats in your care. You obviously love cats.

Mr & Mrs R, Huntington

Very Happy

This was the first time Florrie was waiting for us on the doorstep. He usually sulks for 3 days. Very happy.

Mrs.T, Lichfield

Peace Of Mind

Thanks to you giving us the peace of mind to be able to go away for a break or holiday. All the cats seem happy, relaxed and very content. We will be in touch as soon as we go away again. Once again thank you so much.

Mr & Mrs W, Tamworth

Very Confident About Future Visits

It was lovely and very reassuring to receive daily text messages on how things were going with Paddy. It was clear that he became more and more friendly as time went on and he was his usual active and playful self. I feel very confident about future visits now. Your approach appears to be very caring but well organised and professional.

Mr & Mrs G from Stafford

Extremely Happy

We have been extremely happy with the care you have shown to Megan and Stanley. They seemed very relaxed when we arrived home which was very reassuring. Thanks for your patience with the massive list of instructions.

Ms F from Lichfield

Tiger And Her Kittens

Thank you for looking after Tiger and her kittens and that I would recommend your company to friends and others.

Mrs. B from Rugeley

Woodle from Cannock

Thank you for looking after Woodle so well, it was really hard to put her care into the hands of a stranger (but a stranger no more) especially as we were still very upset from having our other cat put to sleep only a few days before. So to return and see Woodle so relaxed was a great relief! I shall use your service again and again whenever we are away.

Mrs D from Cannock

Purrfection!

Tracey, you have looked after the cats to purrfection and I will have no further reservations to leaving you to care for the cats again. My cats were sad to see you go.

Mrs B from Stafford

A Happy And Contented Cat. Great Service

I thought the daily diary and photographs were a great idea. It showed that Dastardly was very happy and contented whilst we were away. [..] We came back to an obviously happy and contented cat. Great service.
