We have used Tory 3 times to groom our long-haired cat. Tory expertly buzzes off cat matting in a very caring manner. Tory comes to our home, making it so much easier for our furry pet.

Tory came to look after our cats visiting them daily and provided food, cuddles and love to our cats while we were away. She gave us daily photo updates and I felt super reassured knowing she was there caring for the cats. Definitely would recommend and will use Torys services again next time we go away.

If you’re away and need a cat sitter, I highly recommend Tory. She absolutely loves cats and instinctively knows what they need to feel safe and happy. She is a fantastic communicator, and her daily updates will assure you that your cat is receiving the best care.

Tory is the best person to leave your fur babies with. She takes especially good care of my elderly and finicky cat. Thank you so much for all you do for my girls! I don't know what I'd do without you.

I found Tory in a state of panic when needing my boy fed over the new year period 24/25. Since then she has looked after my boy many times, as well as helping me with my kitten. She has also saved my bacon multiple times, when house sitters had pulled out and when we unexpectedly had to stay away longer was ok with adding days to keep feeding them. When someone visited my house while we were away and accidently left a window open she made sure my cat came inside and wouldn’t leave until he was. I have also used her nail trimming services. With such a wiggly kitten she was patient and kind. I often go to Tory for advice which she is always willing to answer. Thanks for all your hard work Tory! My babies love you

I would highly recommend Tory for taking care of your cats within their own home. The peace of mind knowing our two were safe, loved and well cared for in their own familiar space was bliss! The daily updates from Tory were the icing on top. Tory offers as impeccable service and is respectful of human wishes and cats individual needs and personalities! Will definitely use her service again when needed.

highly recommend tory has looked after my boy a few times now I never had to worry got up dated pics everyday tory went above and beyond even cleaned out his litter tray mr mittens loved having the company attention and pats its a relief having someone who just loves cats and is trustworthy wouldn’t want anyone else looking after my boy

Tory has been taking care of my felines for the last few years, a week or two here a couple days there. I am always so happy when I return to leftover biscuits in the dish and fresh clean water in the bowls. I particularly enjoy receiving pictures of the cats after she’d been, it really settles me, I have noticed the difference in them (less mad/needy) as I’d used some one else before, I think because Tory will spend time with them, giving the good pats and playing, to ensure they are not getting lonely! before his passing Tory has taken care of my elderly boy, she’s taken care of my orange idiot since kittenhood and has recently even befriend my new boy who is timid and not sure about new people and wasn’t entirely happy about entering a new home. She got him on side quite quickly, which is behavior I trust. Tory is always friendly and direct, and happy to help! Although not formally trained in animal care she absolutely knows what she’s doing, she has her own access to our home and comes and goes appropriately I do not have to worry about anything, once she has our departure and arrival dates, and knows where everything is, she off, great common sense and initiative with all duties. Even cleaning up accidents or replenishing food supplies if we’ve unexpectedly run out! I’m so glad to have found someone who respects our animals and our home while we are not there.My cats have grown to love her and will wait outside when they know she’s coming, I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants a stress free experience.

Tory is a caring and loving cat carer. I’m definitely going to book her to look after my Zac.

Tory picked up Billie and myself for a visit to the vet. Everything went perfectly and I will be using the service again. Tory was on time and the journey was smooth. It is great travelling with a cat friendly service as not alll cats are great travellers. Thanks Tory!

The cat carer helped get my cats to the vet for their check up. Perfect service and two happy little cats 🐱 🐱

Tory gave Maggie a claw clip. Friendly, fast service, without the hassle of getting Maggie in the cage and to the vet. I highly recommend The Cat Carer.

Tory collected me and Agatha for an early vet appointment. She was already waiting. It was just so nice to concentrate my attention on Agatha. i knew this trip was likely to be Agatha’s last journey. It also meant I could spend my time in quiet reflection. I will be using the Cat Carer’s services again. Looking forward to getting those nail trims done etc.

Tory is absolutely fantastic and has been nothing less than amazing with our cat. He’s always excited to see Tory – even for a claw trim!She has our full confidence and highest possible endorsement. There is no one I’d rather have caring for our purring family members.

I recently went on my honeymoon and it meant the longest time I’ve been away from my cats in their entire lives. We have 4 cats (if you’ve followed this page for awhile, you’ll be familiar with the Featherston Four!!) ranging from 13 years old to just 2 years old. They can be a lot of work! Tory was an incredible and reassuring carer for our darlings while we were away. Daily photos, videos, updates if she hadn’t managed to see them that day, some notes on things we might want to follow up on when we get back, and the comfort and knowledge that someone who loves cats as much as we do was hanging out with our lot every day. Tory made it to our house daily for 2.5 weeks, including one day where she had to battle through a freak snow event to get there. Just incredible – would 100% recommend and will be booking her in again next time we’re out of the city!

Tory looked after my two cats for 5 days. They are rescues, one is confident and one is very shy. They have their quirks with eating and Tory handled them beautifully. I hadn’t left them for this long since I got them, so was a little nervous that the shy one wouldn’t eat. I didn’t have to worry. Ursula even got comfortable enough for a quick pat. Tory sent me updates every feed with photos and met the cats where they were, making them really comfortable. And when I got home they were so relaxed and confident in their routine, I knew they had been cared for with a lot of love. I can’t recommend Tory highly enough. Her approach, knowledge and genuine love of cats, shines through. The great communication while you are away confirms you have made the right decision to trust Tory with your fur babies, knowing they are in safe and caring hands. Thank you so much Tory, much aroha from Lisa, George & Ursula.

Dedicated to the welfare of her clients’ cats. Fed our cats over Labour Weekend, no hassles. also clipped our ginger cat’s claws, very efficiently and skillfully done. Highly recommended

Wonderful service! Great communication, and a genuine care for the pets. Really well priced too!

28 November 2024

An absolutely amazing service by The Cat Carer. I loved getting daily photos and updates of my 2 cats that she was looking after for a week. Really good priced and I was able to relax on my holiday and know that my cats were cared for. Will be booking again very soon!! Thank you again 🙂

The Cat Carer looked after our little menace for three days. She fed her, played with her, sent us photos, and was super patient with her – even when she was behaving like a menace. 100% recommend 😊

Tory knows cats better than anyone I’ve ever met. She treats every sentient being with the utmost respect and care and goes above and beyond to help people with her caring heart. I highly recommend!

Tory looked after our 2 cats in November. It was a huge relief to have someone so experienced and caring of cats. We had been so hesitant to go away for even 1 night as one cat is on medication for heart disease. All was fine and we came home to happy kitties.

8 January 2025

Thank you so much for taking great care of our cat. He needed a good groom and u took the time to get to know him and allow him breaks so he wouldn’t get too stressed! Def will be using you again from us and Baxter

9 January 2025

Thank you so much for the claw trim on Frankie today. Great service.

26 January 2025

Tory provided such amazing service that even our most timid boy came to see her on a couple of occasions.We have an inside only cat, an Elderly cat who we prefer only goes outside when we are home, and two cats who have total free rein….. none of this phased Tory! And we got photos at every visit so we knew our boys were being cared for ❤️

Tory made our two princesses’ pawdicures (claw trims) a pleasant, stress-free experience. Cinnamon even flirted and allowed tummy rubs afterwards! Purrfect!🐱
