Why should I choose Moggy Minders?
Because we just love cats! Unlike many other companies you may find who
offer pet sitting, we don’t offer cat sitting as an extra to dog
walking/house sitting/small animal sitting. We are a specialist company
who is dedicated to looking after your cat – ensuring his
happiness and looking after his every whim whilst you are not there. We
are a well established, trusted business operating locally to you, with
most of our business coming from repeat bookings or referrals to
friends and family from our existing clients. Plus, we send you a
monthly newsletter - packed full of info, advice and money saving
ideas, absolutely free!
Is there a minimum time you will look after my Cat?
No! Whether it’s an emergency overnight, to a 6 month world tour,
we can look after your kitty as and when you need us. Obviously during
popular holiday times, we get busy – so we advise you to let us
know of your travel dates as soon as they are booked. We simply
won’t look after more kitties than we can manage at any one time.
What do you do about keys for my house? And what about security?
Once you decide to book Moggy Minders, we will come and meet you and
your kitties. This first visit is naturally free of charge. At this
visit, we will take a spare key to your house. However, your name and
address will never be
kept with the key, and all keys are kept locked in our safe. Your
security is of paramount importance to us and we will take details of
any alarm systems that you have. Many clients are happy to leave a key
with us, so that if they need to go away at the last minute, we are on
hand to help out without any more hassle to you.
Remember, that we will also open curtains and remove post from the
doormat, so that your house looks occupied. We do not use a sign
written vehicle unlike other firms to draw attention to the fact you
are away.
Why should I use Moggy Minders rather than my family/friends/neighbours?
We want you to be happy with whoever looks after your cat. And we want
your cat to be happy. Friends and family are great – however it
can be a big “ask” to get them to come round when they are
busy with work/family/leisure commitments. They may be rushed, and
won’t be able to spend as much time with your cat as he deserves.
We will spend as long with your cats as we need to, to ensure that they
are properly looked after. Looking after cats is what we do, and you
can be assured that we will always do it to the upmost of our abilities.
How do I pay you? And do you need a deposit?
We ask for a 25% non refundable deposit at the time of booking. This
can be paid by cash, cheque, BACS, or via credit card through Paypal
(free to send payments – fully guaranteed against fraud) when we
come to meet you for the first time. The remainder of the balance
should be paid prior to your holiday, either by BACS or Paypal, or
alternatively you may leave us cash or a cheque in the house for us to
collect on our first visit to look after Kitty.
What do I need to leave for my cat whilst I am away?
We ask you to leave whatever kitty normally eats – if he has a
taste for fresh fish then please leave us enough money to cover his
dietary requirements! Please leave us sufficient cat litter –
however we will ensure all rubbish is removed from your house so you
won’t come back to any unpleasant smells lingering in your bin!
We also need the details of your vet, and any insurance you have for
your cat. We will complete all these details, including any medication
your cat requires, when we come to meet your for the first time. Should
there be a medical problem with your cat, we will naturally take him to
your vet, and we will ask you to sign a consent form that we will
retain on file. We will make every attempt to contact you should the
worst happen.
Everything else will already be there – his toys/bed/favourite flower bed/scratching post..
What insurance do you have and how do I know I can trust you?
We have public liability insurance, so that should the worst happen,
you know that you are covered. We will go through these details with
you when we meet, as they would take up far too much room here!
We also have enhanced police criminal records bureau checks for your
peace of mind, plus testimonials on this website from other satisfied
clients.
Do you have references from other clients?
Yes - some of the testimonials given to us by other clients are available by clicking here
