Hei! I’m Carole. I’m from the UK and have been living in Helsinki since 2015. I live in Töölö with my husband and daughter. We are all huge cat lovers and have 2 cats at home called Noodles (tabby) and Miso (ragamuffin). I had cats and bunnies as a child, and have previously raised a rescue kitten.

I’m happy to make home visits to look after your cat(s). I have a flexible schedule, so I can be at your place at a certain time if needed. I can also stay overnight sometimes - you can request this service. I can also water your plants if you’re away for a longer time.

I’m a trustworthy and reliable non-smoker who will take very good care of your cat(s) and respect your home. I will keep you updated and send photos so that you can see how your cat(s) are doing while you're away. My passion is cats, but I’m also happy to care for small animals such as bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish.

Whilst I’m new to Pawsitters, I come with 10+ years of cat parenting experience. I have also cared for my friends’ pets over the years.

"Carole went beyond in terms of caring for my boys and also my flat whilst i was away. Communication was great, she kept me up to date with what was going on, kept my flat spotless as well! I highly recommend her as a sitter if you're considering it!" - Adele (3 cats including a senior)

"I’ve known Carole since 2016 when we met at a food fair in Helsinki and became very good friends. She is very responsible, kind and honest, and is godparent to our toddler son. Carole has babysat on several occasions (and by extension cat-sits, as we have a cat!). I have no hesitation in recommending her to house-sit or cat-sit." - Jennifer

"I’ve known Carole since 2016. When I had my cat, Ed, she didn’t hesitate to look after him when I went away on holiday. She took good care of him, played with him, and sent regular updates, I knew he was in good hands." - Sarah
