The Cat Butler Brighton – Cat Sitting Service, Cattery Alternative

Our Story

The Cat Butler was set up by Sandra James in 2015 and was inspired by the animal lover’s feline friend, Ziggy.

Like many cat owners, Sandra often felt unable to go away and leave Ziggy. Although there were some amazing catteries nearby, Sandra knew that Ziggy was much happier at home, and a trip to an unfamiliar environment would be traumatic.

While she had considered asking a neighbour to pop in and keep an eye on Ziggy, Sandra also knew that being a typical cat, Ziggy thrived on routine.

It wasn’t enough to have somebody come in once a day or so and top up his food bowl; Ziggy needed consistency, interaction, and a reassuring presence around the house to feel safe and content.

After leaving her career in financial services, Sandra set up The Cat Butler to provide felines in and around St Albans with tailored care in the safety and comfort of their own home. Today, The Cat Butler team works with thousands of customers – and their humans – across the UK.

Cat Butler Cat Sitting

We provide a professional and comprehensive cat sitting service and a stress-free alternative to a traditional cattery.

Services are delivered in your cat’s own home and are tailored to their specific needs.

If they are shy around strangers, we’ll respect that – we’ll make sure that they are looked after and reassured from a distance. If they love to play, we are only too happy to oblige! And if you have a cat who loves affection – well, our cat sitters give the best chin rubs and cuddles ever!

We can visit once or twice each day, and we always make sure that we pop in at least once a day. 

We feed, top up the water, change the litter tray and clean up any mischief they may have caused. We also spend lots of quality time with our feline friends, playing, cuddling, and interacting with them.

We’ll keep in touch with you while you’re away and send you regular updates. We’ll also send you photos and videos so you can see how your cat is getting on.
