Hi, I'm Nicole and I love animals so much that I left my head office job in 2018 to create and run Kitty Purry Pet Sitting full time!

I will care for, love, spoil and cherish your pet as if they were my own. I have more than 25 years of experience looking after my own family pets and friends`pets (cats, dogs, rabbits, fish, birds, tortoises, hamsters, and even a blind chicken).

From the day I was born in South Africa, I have always been surrounded by pets and wildlife and spent countless holidays at wildlife reserves.

I currently own 2 Bengal cats, Jax (male) and Gigi (female), who is Epileptic.

I have experience as a foster mom for rescued cats and kittens and hold numerous animal-related qualifications.

I also have experience handling and working with nervous/aggressive cats.

In my spare time, I volunteer at Battersea Dogs & Cats Home and Cats Protection as a Cat Care Assistant and am an ambassador for CatinaFlat.

I spent a weekend shadowing at a wildlife rehabilitation centre in South Africa when I was younger and this included the care of meerkats, bush babies, monkeys and even a warthog! Some highlights for me there were holding a lion cub in my lap, stroking a zebra and a cheetah and watching the staff bottle-feed orphaned baby rhinos.

I am able to serve clients in Littlehampton, Rustington, East Preston & Angmering.

I am also comfortable with administering medication in either pill/ liquid/injectable form as well as flea/worm treatments, if your pet requires it.

I will send you daily pictures/videos and updates of your pet throughout the duration of my visit and I don’t mind watering plants, taking out the bins or accepting any post on your behalf too.

I drive, so if there is an emergency, I can take your pet to the vet (although we wouldn't expect anything like that to happen), but is still a comfort to know.

I also take care of other small pets: birds, fish, guinea pigs, rabbits, chickens, hamsters and small dogs, etc.

I am sorry to say that I can't take care of snakes, bearded dragons or spiders as they are the only animals I'm rather afraid of!

Please note that bookings on Christmas Day are double.

Thank you for your understanding.

I hope to take care of your purrrrrry loved one in the future!
