Yes. Many Glasgow sitters have experience with nervous and rescue cats. They'll take it slowly, let your cat set the pace, and prioritise routine over forced interaction.

Yes — tablets, liquid medicine, eye drops, and special diets. Just mention it when posting your job so we match you with a sitter who has the right experience.

We recommend at least one introduction visit with you present so your cat has a familiar face in the room. After that, most cats accept the sitter's solo visits without issue.
