Testimonials 


Dear Contented Cats, this is Sabbie, thank you for looking after me last week, you were so kind and i looked forward to seeing you each morning and playing.  Thank you for feeding me too! And for looking after the Rabbits! Lots of love Miouw xx   Mrs G, Northchurch Feb 2025


I really can't thank Lynn & Carol enough for going above and beyond to take great care of my boys Goose & Maverick.  I would recommend in a heartbeat and will use time and time again.  Thank you.  Mrs B, Ashridge, September 2024


We always use Contented Cats! The service is absolutely the best!! The lovely cat sitters really care and Carol is amazing! They literally go ABOVE & BEYOND!! Could not do without them.  Totally recommend them.  Mrs M, Berkhamsted August 2024


I have used Contented Cats for years now and they have always been super reliable and leave me feeling very happy that my cats are well looked after.  The new feature of getting updates from every visit via their web portal/website was loved by the whole family!  It was great to see how our cats are doing everyday.  It's a great service, would highly recommend.  Mr W. Berkhamsted   AUG 2024


Carol and her team at Contented Cats go above and beyond to make sure your cat is well cared for while you're away.  Carol is always there for your pet! For our first visit Carol came over to meet our cat and understand her needs.  Then when we were away we received regular updates with photos, which is so reassuring and also lovely to see our pet each day.  Now that we've found Contented Cats we wouldn't use anyone else!  Mr & Mrs T, Berkhamsted  July 2024


I couldn’t recommend contented cats more. After caring for our lovely old boy for the last few years of his life and showing him such love and care, Carol and Lynn were the obvious choice once we took custody of two rambunctious younger cats.

We recently took a month away, and Carol gave brilliant advice on how to ensure our loved ones were not too lonely and was reassuring about the decision to leave them in our home rather than uprooting them to a cattery. 

A friend stayed for part of the time, so Lynn came before and after, kindly holding onto the keys so she could be there at late notice after our friend needed to leave earlier than planned.  Our cats love Lynn, and we love the online updates with their photos ❤️   Mr & MrsT, Tring  May 2024


We have two cats and have been using Contented Cats for 3 years now.  We find it comforting knowing Carol and the team will give them lots of fusses and attention when we're away.  We love the photo updates as well :-)    Mrs W, Tring April 2024


Carol and her team have taken excellent care of our cat on several occasions.  Much better than using an expensive cattery.  5 stars are not enough!!!  Mr J, Berkhamsted  February 2024


This is a brilliant service that allows my elderly lady cat to stay peacefully in her own home when we are away.  Contented Cats sends pictures each day via their portal so we can see she is happy and healthy.  I never liked leaving her in a cattery - Contented Cats is so much better for all of us Mrs M, Berkhamsted  January 2024


A massive thank you for looking after our gorgeous Chinchilla Wilson & our squeaky Guinea pigs over the Christmas & New Year holidays.  It means so much to us to be able to leave them in your capable hands. We loved your photo updates on the portal too.  Thank you & wishing you all a happy 2024.   Mrs F Berkhamsted  January 2024


What an incredible service! Our kittens were beautifully cared for and the regular updates gave us brilliant peace of mind.  We have already booked the Contented Cats team for our next trips away.  Mr & Mrs C, Berkhamsted  October 2023


I have just had Carol and her team at Contented Cats to look after my cat for a couple of weeks.  My cat loved the care and attention that she received, it was so good to be able to go away and know that she was in good hands.  I thoroughly recommend and thank Contented Cats for being reliable and efficient and will not hesitate to book again.  Mrs G. Northchurch  July 2023


My two boys Patrick and Barry have been cared for by Carol and Lynn at Contented Cats since they were little. After using a cattery the first time I went away and seeing how distressing it was I looked around for home care. I found Contented Cats and Carol and Lynn were friendly, helpful and reassuring from the start. The service they provide is fantastic. My cats love Lynn’s visits and when I go away I can relax knowing they are in their own home. Contented Cats have supported when Barry has had medication and always wash bowls and keep feeding areas clean and healthy. Lynn spends time cuddling and playing with the cats and always sends me pictures of them. The cost is extremely reasonable and very good value for money.  MrsC, Tring June 2023


It is very reassuing to know my 16 year old cat Suki is being well looked after by someone who cares.  I get regular photo updates and am very happy with the Contented Cats team. Mrs M, Potten End  May 2023


It's such a relief to have Carol and her team look after our Bobster when we're away.  They do such a great job, and are super-reliable, helpful and flexible. We get regular updates so we're reassured all is well.  Carol and the team feed him, plays with him (and cleans up after him!) Most importantly Bobster has been in his home - much less stress for him.  It makes such a difference knowing Bobster is in safe hands!  Miss M, Berkhamsted  May 2023


Carol & co have looked after our cats on several occasions and each time we arrive home to find them happy and relaxed. It’s great peace-of-mind knowing they’re in good hands, and receiving photos & updates whilst we are away. Highly recommended! Mr T Berkhamsted  May 2023


Carol has looked after my two cats a few times now, and every time has been excellent! The cats are always very well looked after, and I really appreciate receiving photos of them eating and playing while I’m away. It’s very reassuring to have such a friendly and responsive person looking after my cats, and to know that they are happy and in great hands.

I adopted my two cats Jem and Scout less than a year ago, and when I went to pick them up from the shelter they were so dejected/sad, unresponsive and shut down sitting in their pen. The thought of leaving them in a cattery is upsetting, because I don’t want them to feel abandoned ever again! With Carol they’re able to stay at home in a familiar environment and follow their normal routine, and are not stressed at all. I’m so grateful to Carol and her team for their help keeping Jem and Scout happy and healthy while I’m away!  Miss F Berkhamsted April 2023


 I am so grateful to find Carol/Contented Cats.  Transporting our senior rescue cat Gael to a cattery is VERY stressful so it is wonderful to find such trustworthy and caring people to come to our home to look after Gael while we are away.  Carol and her team had been highly recommend to me by others.  They definitely met our expectations allowing us to relax fully on our holiday knowing our precious girl is well cared for. x  Mrs R, Little Gaddesden April 2023


The Contented Cats team have given Coco reliable and kind care, with playtime and regular reports while i'm away.  Highly reccommend.  Mrs T, Berkhamsted  April 2023


Contented Cats provided an invaluable service to me and my two kittens. I I was a big bag of worry when we were away. I knew that they were still quite young to be left, but sometimes life throws you a curve ball. One of the kittens was very shy and quite skittish. Every day I got updates and trust me when I say that the skittish kitten was in love with her foster hooman.  My skittish kitten had the look of love in her eyes and gave up her belly! Both kittens were totally healthy and happy by the time we got home. 

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Contented Cats. I’m not planning to go away for a long time, but if I have to; I will be in touch with Carol straight away.

Huge thank you to you both.  LTA - Berkhamsted  Feb 2023



I always feel more relaxed when i know you and your team are looking after our cats.  You star, thank you.  Mrs J, Chesham  Jan 2023


Contented Cats team looked after our cat Milo for 5 weeks and we were delighted with the care and attention given to him during that time.  Before we went away they made sure that they were fully aware of his dietary requirements (inc his medication) and habits.  They gave us regular updates and when a domestic issue arose went above and beyond to help us sort this out.  We would highly recommend them.  Mr & Mrs B Berkhamsted, December 2022


Contented Cats were so experienced and kind.  They took care of our cat on our Wedding day and managed to bring him to the venue to have photos with us on the day.  The cat felt very comfortable with them even though usually he is generally afraid of people.  We would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a cat sitter!  Thank you!  Mr & Mrs L  London, September 2022



Contented Cats have looked after our cat twice now and have been great. Our cat has always seemed so relaxed, much better than a cattery, we will use again for sure! Mrs M, Berkhamsted.  August 2022



We were late booking our normal cat hotel due to family and work commitments.I had never considered leaving the cats at home and someone caring for them @home.my cats were frightened and hated the very expensive cat hotel we left them in last year. The male hid in a box for the first 3 days and would only eat roast chicken .
This time; we could see they were happy- we have a catcam and Carol was completely unphased by that ; as a family we would be reassured when we saw them doing zoomies and clearly being happy, living their best lives. They ate well and were king and queen of the house for 2weeks!
I would highly recommend; being a self confessed obsessive cat mother .( I also have 3 children ;so have a little bit of insight !) 😂 
Mr & Mrs C, Tring August 2022



Carol and her team at Contented Cats have cared for our cat many times over the last 9 years for anything from a few days up to periods of 6 weeks several times a year. We always have complete confidence in her team who provide lots of fuss time, messaging feedback and cat photos during our trips away. They also keep a good eye on any issues which may crop up in the house, garden and with the central heating especially during our long winter trips away which makes for a great feeling of confidence. Our cat was diagnosed with diabetes a few months ago requiring twice daily insulin injections but Carol and the team reassured us that they could handle this, and we are now able to again plan our many trips away with great confidence the cat is in the best of hands. Great team with great service.

Mr & Mrs P. Tring  May 2022



Our rescue cat has always been a little timid and shy. We therefore couldn't leave her with just anyone and wanted her to stay in her own home environment. Contended Cats visited her at our home every day, feeding her, playing with her and changing her litter tray. We also received photos of her on a daily basis. Knowing that she was in good hands made us feel so relaxed being away from her on holiday. Thank you so much Contended Cats for making her so comfortable which made us very happy. We are so glad we found Contended Cats!😻   Mr & Mrs F Berkhamsted  March 2022


We have used Contented Cats for the past nine years or so.  They are always very quick to respond to your requests and go beyond to try and accommodate your requests and go beyond to try and accommodate your request even if it is at short notice.

They are completely reliable and trustworthy and send wonderful pictures of your cats when they visit which is always very reassuring and lovely to receive wherever you are. It makes having cats and going away not a worry or an inconvenience and the value for money is excellent.  Mrs P Old Town, Hemel Hempstead, February 2022


It's fantastic knowing we have Carol to look after Zeus when we go away.  I'm, confident that he's well looked after, loved and cared for and the updates we get are just an added touch.  Highly recommend Carol and her team are friendly, reliable and extremely trustworthy.  Mrs R, Berkhamsted, January 2022


So glad i found Contented Cats.  Perfect for those weekends away when you'd rather be able to leave them in their own home and not be chasing them into a cat box last minute. Great service, lovely people and always send you a photo so you know they're ok and don't feel too guilty!  Would highly recommend. Ms R. Berkhamsted August 2021


We have had nothing but care and commitment from Carol and her team.  They have looked after our two cats fantastically over the last few years and have always gone above and beyond to make sure they are fine. One cat is very timid but the love and attention she gets to gain her trust is really lovely to see developing over our time away through the daily photos. We highly recommend the services provided.  Mrs S Tring  June 2021


It's lovely being able to go away with piece of mind that our cat is well looked after and gets to stay in her own home.  The regular updates and photo's are really appreciated.  Mr R Northchurch  July 2021


Very reliable, professional and the cats are happy! Highly recommend the Contented Cats team.  Mrs K Berkhamsted July 2021


I always use this service for my cat when i go away and have always been impressed with Carol and her team's professionalism and reliability.  Even sometimes when  i have given short notice, Carol has always managed to accommodate me.  Overall, really great service and my cat enjoys the visits too!   A  Berkhamsted  June 2021


We always use Carol to look after our beautiful cat Beorn - and every time we're going away the first port of call is to call Carol!

Carol is always punctual, friendly and professional - and she spends ample time with your mog, grooming and playing, so they don't miss stimulation and companionship as well as Whiskers. She will update you with pictures and updates on your pet's wellbeing which will put you at ease (and maybe supply the odd laugh).

Our cat is a jaded misanthrope but he loves Carol. I suspect she is a cat whisperer. Mr & Mrs S, Berkhamsted  April 2021


Carol gives us peace of mind that our cat is wel cared for. She sends through lovely photos' regularly and gives us many updates during the time we're away. The service is friendly and efficient and thoroughly recommend. Mrs S Berkhamsted July 2020


I highly recommend Contented Cats. Carol and her team go the extra mile to ensure our cats are well fed and given lots of fuss when we're away. It was especially reassuring to find someone we could trust 100% after one of our cats had been seriously ill and needed strict routine of medication and a specialised diet. The personalised, friendly service is wonderful, with regular photos of our cats WhatsApped to us while were away (it's also a bonus that Carol's team keep an eye on the house too!) Our cats are far happier being able to stay in the comfort of their own home surroundings rather than being in a pen at a cattery, and the cost is cheaper too. All-round excellent!   Mrs B, Berkhamsted April 2020


One happy cat and customer here. It feels like too much to ask of my neighbours when I'm away for a long trip and its very reassuring to get daily photo updates of my handsome boy tucking into his dinner whilst I'm away. Good reliable and friendly service. Thanks all.  Miss N, Ashridge  March 2020


We've been asking Carol to look after our two cats for about five years. There's no way that we'd ever want to change the arrangement! We have the peace of mind through knowing that they get a daily visit, fed and cuddled while we're away. Carol and her team took extra special care of one of our cats who had only just started going out after eye surgery when we went away - we were so grateful for the updates and reassurance we received. Contented cats offer a very special service. Mrs J, Berkhamsted,  November 2019

The worst thing about leaving Berkhamsted was leaving behind such a brilliant cat sitter ! Carol was great with our two fluffy boys - who were always groomed to perfection on our return from any trips.  She and her team looked after them so well and there was no limit to her flexibility when we needed emergency care.  Can’t recommend highly enough if you want excellent care, peace of mind, lots of photos and updates and, most importantly, contented cats.  Liz, Paul ‘Mishka and Marley. November 2019

We have been using Carol and Contented Cats  regularly ever since we got our cat around 7 years ago, and the service is second to none. Carol is really friendly and professional, and met with us initially to ascertain our kitty’s requirements. She always ensures she knows exactly what our kitty needs and is easy to reach at all times so we never need to worry. We get regular pictures sent through of our happy well groomed kitty cat, and are kept updated at all times. Carol is really accommodating - even when I have had to go away at short notice or make last minute, potentially inconvenient plans, she has always managed to fit us in and has been incredibly helpful throughout. Kitty is always happy on return and it is obvious she has been groomed every day and been given lots of fuss... which is saying something since she is a very affectionate and needy little cat! Overall, couldn’t be happier - thanks Contented Cats! G&T, Berkhamsted October 2019 Carol is fantastic! Our cat Jack is a rescue cat and although incredibly friendly, gets very upset when “left” in the cattery. Contented Cats allows him the opportunity to stay at home and enjoy cuddles and playtime whilst we are away. We get regular photos and updates via what’s app which is brilliant and very reassuring. Nothing is too much trouble. I would highly recommend Contented Cats to anyone with a cat! 😸 Mrs B, Berkhamsted October 2019
Carol and the team are absolutely fantastic! I really appreciate the photo updates and knowing that Garfield is well looked after by people who love cats. The whole process is easy to arrange and I always come home to a very happy cat 😻 I highly recommend. Mrs W Tring November 2019 We have been using Contented Cats for around 5 years now and can’t recommend them enough! Whether it be a short or long trip, Carol and the team go out of their way to make sure your cats are happy and well looked after while you’re away, which really puts your mind at rest. Thank you! Mrs B Berkhamsted November 2019

We started using Carol’s cat care service for when we are away and it was especially important when our cat was diagnosed with heart condition and needed medication daily. Contented Cats has been looking after our two cats for nearly 2 years and it gives us a peace of mind knowing Carol is there to look after them. Carol is very reliable and keeps us updated with their wellbeing. Mrs K Berkhamsted July 2019

I have been using Contented Cats for years and am really happy with the service they provide. Carol is always very friendly and our cats love her. It gives me peace of mind when I am away as I know they are being well looked after in the comfort of their own home. She sends regular updates with pictures so I know they are happy. I would highly recommend Carol and the team. Mrs B. Berkhamsted June 2019

Carol has been looking after my pets for over 2 years, from hamsters to chickens with the odd rabbit or two! Plus not forgetting the cats, they are happy to be in their own home, well looked after and also a plus is your house is kept an eye on. Would recommend to anyone. S. Berkhamsted April 2019

As soon as I met Carol I knew Teddy would be in good hands. We have used Contented Cats now a few times and will always use them, and would highly recommend them. Not only is your pet happy in its own surroundings, you are also given daily photo updates too. C Berkhamsted April 2019

I can wholeheartedly recommend Carol and Contented Cats. Carol kindly looked after Sparkle while we were away for two weeks abroad and I felt so comfortable that she was in excellent hands. The WhatsApp pics were a fantastic idea, so we could see how happy and played with our cat was. The weather was unbelievably hot and it was evident that Sparkle’s well-being was of utmost importance to Carol, ensuring that playtime was kept in the shade etc. I’d definitely recommend Contented Cats and will certainly be calling upon Carol and the Contented Cats team again next year! Mrs H Chesham August 2018

Carol and her team have looked after our boy, Blue, since he was a kitten. I was never comfortable with the idea of leaving him in a cattery, so felt really happy when I discovered Contented Cats. They came highly recommended in the area by the locals. Whenever we go away Carol not only takes care of Blue but makes sure our house is safe and secure too. Her cleaning standards of Blues room are high and he always gets a lot of love and attention from his carer. I enjoy our photo updates we are sent which I believe makes a real difference and on our return, Blue is always as happy as when we left him. 5 star rating from us. Mr & Mrs CJ, Berkhamsted July 2018

Right from the first day, Carol and her Contented Cats team came to see us the cats took to them, so i know they are in great hands, always good to know. Mr & Mrs N Berkhamsted June 2018

I have been using Contented Cats for many years now and receive regular updates from Carol and her team for the care of Max. He is very well looked after and i can fully relax when away from home knowing he is in good safe hands. Many thanks P, Berkhamsted May 2018

Highly recommend Contented Cats, they offer a very high standard of thoughtful, competant and consistant care for my puss. Mrs L, Berkhamsted May 2018

Carol and Contented cats are brilliant and we would be lost without them. We can go away secure in the knowledge that Bandit will be looked after by a cat lover and will be fussed and fed and medicated just as we do ourselves. Bandit is always very relaxed when we get home. Carol keeps us up to date while we are away which is very reassuring. Carol and her team have been looking after our cats for the last seven years and we are so pleased to have them.
John and Lisa May 2018

The service that Carol (my lovely cat lady) and the team offer is second to none. Our cat Zola is a fussy, spoilt and sometimes a grumpy old boy who needs medication morning and night and Carol and the team take care of his needs, give him so much attention and love he is certainly kept “contented” and healthy. When we leave to go on holidays I now have a clear conscious as I know I’ve left him in his own home with the best care possible. Cannot recommend Carol highly enough. Sandra from Bovingdon April 2018

What do you look for in a cat caring service? Someone trustworthy, kind and reliable who loves to look after cats?
Well Carol is all that and more - she even keeps us up to date with texts and photos when we are away on how content and happy our Fred is. We have used Carol’s service for five years. She is so much apart of Freddy's life now I am sure he now looks forward to us being away just so he can have Carol visit him at home.’ David B (and Fred) Tring May 2018

Carol is superb at looking after our cat for extended absences. It is obvious that our cat flourishes when Carol cares for her and she is delighted to see her again. There have been a few incidents over the years, though the Contented Cat team have kept us fully informed and resolved the issues. They are flexible and able to accommodate varied timeframes. We are able to enjoy our holiday in the secure knowledge that our pet is being well cared for and looked after at home, rather than in a cattery. This is something the cat definitely prefers. We also appreciate that our home is being looked after too whilst we are away. We have recommended Contented Cats to a number of our friends who have received similarly excellent service. P and A, Tring April 2018

It was so reassuring to have regular updates on a very contented cat.Tuck looks positively blissful in your photo’s and we now know her new love “ham”     We are still up to our eyes in packing boxes but Tuck is having a lovely time exploring without the house being full of strangers and she’s soon settled in. Thanks for helping provide a reassuring home presence when our own home was upside down. All the best. Mrs D Berkhamsted

“Carol and her team are very efficient and Rocky enjoyed his staycation with his daily visits from Contented Cats! As a diabetic cat it’s tricky to book him into a cattery and it’s reassuring to know he still has his important daily injection when we need to go away.” Mrs M, Berkhamsted Aug 2017

Thank you so much for watching our puss. She was happy to see us and looked well on our return, having you come in and seen her gives me peace of mind when away
as she really doesn't get on in kennels. Thanks again Mrs G, Ashridge. June 2017 

Carol and her team recently looked after our 2 cats for a week while we were in the USA - they did a brilliant job. I've seen how great Carol is with cats that are new to her, and even our timid one who normally runs away from strangers was happy in her company after a very short time. It is such a great thing to have someone trustworthy look after our cats in their own environment, saving them for the need to be stuck in an unfamiliar cattery. We got regular updates and photos of them via WhatsApp, which was a real treat when we were missing them. We will definitely be using the services of Contented Cats in the future - highly recommended! Mr B Berkhamsted April 2017

I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful support you offered my patient’s pet when they were in hospital. You were approachable, kind and willing to go out of your way to ensure that the cat was well looked after. You offered regular updates about the cat and you even made sure that the owner was well informed of your input even during weekends when I was not working. Your prices were good and you were mindful about ensuring that if there was no pet food, you were willing to provide this to alleviate any stress on the owner. The owner of the pet was really happy with the service you provided. I will be happy to use your service again in future and would not hesitate to recommend Contented Cats to anyone who needs an alternative Cattery service for their pets when they are away in hospital or on holiday.
Your help is much appreciated. Thank you Mrs M Hemel Hempstead Nov 2016

I'm so glad Carol was recommended to me to look after our two cats. Whenever we go away I can always be confident that she and her team will take brilliant care of them, even sending photos of how they are and what they've been up to. We always return to very happy, well looked after cats and it's so lovely and gives us such peace of mind being able to leave them in their own home knowing they'll receive such great care. Brilliant and friendly service for our VIPs!  Mr & Mrs B, Northchurch September 2016

Thanks for looking after 'Panda' so well over the years when we have been away on holidays. We know our big boy is so much happier at home being fed and 'fussed over' during his daily visits from Contented Cats. The regular updates we receive while we are away are also great for peace of mind, and we would recommend your reliable pet sitting services to anyone.  Mr & Mrs A Berkhamsted August 2016

After 3 and a half weeks of being spoiled, cuddle and fed by Carol at Contented Cats whilst i was in Australia; Sherlock was rather pleased when I got home yesterday. Thank you.  
Miss B Berkhamsted February 2016

I wanted to say a HUGE thank you for caring for Tony and Cleo whilst I was on holiday. It gave me such peace of mind to know Cleo was being made a fuss of whilst Tony was unwell. I so appreciate your help and will most certainly come back to you again. Thanks so much!    Miss M Berkhamsted Aug 2015

We were very happy with Carol’s caring services. She not only tended to our 2 cats but also took great care of an extended family hamster for an additional miniscule fee.Our cats were very happy and well looked after the whole time. We both had text messages/reports every evening. Our pets had good fuss sessions every day. All messes were cleaned and everything was ship-shape upon our arrival.We are planning next holiday again this year and, of course, Carol is included in the action-plan ;) She well deserves our trust. Big thank you from our family and 3 very happy pets!!!    Mrs & Mr G with Pixie, Phillip and tiny Lulu August 2015

We have used Carol for a number of years now to look after our cat Dusty and keep an eye on our house every time we go on holiday. We have always found Carol to be trusting and reliable discharging her duty with due care and diligence. It is a comfort to know that while we are away someone is looking after our pet (s) and the house and keeping us updated. During winter 2010 while we were away our house was flooded following a burst pipe. As Carol had the key to the house she attended the house immediately upon notification. She assisted in stopping the water, save our furniture amongst other things and took Dusty to her house. Carol never relaxes until her client is back and confirms that they now have control of everything back. Without the invaluable support of Carol services our trips would be difficult to organise.  
Mr & Mrs G Berkhamsted April 2015

Carol and her team have been looking after my furry family for years. The service you receive from Contented Cats is superb - 100 percent reliable, extremely efficient, friendly, caring and very reasonably priced too! My Burmese, Bengals and Tabby are always in tiptop condition when I return from trips away and I have had peace of mind knowing they are being well looked after in the comfort of their own home. 
Mrs L, Aldbury Dec 2014

I am so happy I met Carol!! She is an amazing cat sitter and now friend. Carol is very flexible and was available when I needed her last minute. She constantly updated me on how Zsa Zsa was doing with a quick text or a cheeky photo of them playing and having fun together. I definitely returned home to a happy and well looked after kitty and I would recommend Carol to anyone who is seeking a kind, caring and loving person to look after their pets worry free at a reasonable price. Thank you so much Carol, you are a life saver!
Miss M, Potters Bar August 2014

Thanks for keeping a check on the boys it's a huge weight off my mind when we go way and really let's me relax.  Mrs H Tring

Just wanted to say thank you so much for looking after Inka while we were away and for taking care of fish, plants and birdfeeders etc. too. It makes such a difference being able to go away for such a long time and know we can leave Inka at home and that she will be well looked after instead of having to put her in a cattery and unsettle her. We appreciate the updates too and especially the photos…they were lovely. Everything was fine when we got back and Inka seemed pleased to see us. Thanks again for everything you all did.
 Mr & Mrs P Tring Sept 2014

I was very happy with the service provided and felt relaxed whilst on holiday in the knowledge that both Diablo and Ronnie where being well looked after, in fact, I don't even think they where too fussed when we arrived home - they had certainly been happy whilst we were away. Thank you for taking such good care of them! I would most certainly recommend Contented Cats to anybody that doesn't want to put their pet through the stress of a strange place whilst on their holidays. I am sure Diablo and Ronnie look forward to our holidays now more than we do!   Mr & Mrs P Hemel Hemstead                                                  

We were saved by Carol coming to our rescue when we were unable to find a place for our cat at the height of the holiday season. We had piece of mind knowing he was in a secure and very comfortable place. We cannot thank her enough and would say to anyone wanting the best for their cat to go to Contented Cats. Mr & Mrs C

Carol took great care of our cat whilst we went away for a few days. We'd not long had our cat, Scout and it was our first time leaving her. But we felt completely relaxed and reassured. The regular text updates are a fab idea and provide immense comfort that your cat and house are being brilliantly cared for. Carol is kind, generous and lovely. We couldn't ask for more. We'll definitely be calling on Carol again. Having your cat looked after at home is a much better solution than a cattery and good value too. Thanks again Carol. Mrs B, Berkhamsted

We have used Carol on many occasions to look after our diabetic cat and have found him very happy and well when we return from our holidays. Also we are very reassured by regular text messages about his progress while we are away. We would recommend Carol to anyone needing peace of mind for holiday cat care. Mrs M Tring

Thanks so much its nice to know that somebody is in the property every day just for general security as well as to care for my boys. Mrs A Berkhamsted

Carol provides an amazing service, our cats fruli and mocha get very stressed at the slightest bit of change but when we got back they were healthy and happy and well groomed, our house also looked better than when we left it! Carol did a marvellous job and even brought in our post! 
The cats obviously loved her and allowed us to have a worry free holiday! Her texts while we were away put our minds at ease about leaving our two madams for the first time since we got them and I don't think they even noticed thanks to Carol's hard work and attention!  P & S, Berkhamsted

I have to say that your service is a brilliant one and thank you very warmly from Lucy and me. 
To come home to a happy fed and watered cat with a clean litter tray was a real joy. You had so kindly combed her and left a report on her progress!  Lucy Locket avoided the stress of a lovely but lonely cattery and what's more important is that she hasn't been sick which is the usual order of the day when I've been away. What more can I say except a very big thank you. Mrs W - Aston Clinton

After my neighbour became ill 4 days before I was due to go away (leaving me with no one to look after my cat and chickens) my vet referred me to Carol at Contented Cats. Carol came to see me the following day and I was very pleased to let her look after the pets.  There was a professional service throughout - Carol even sent me a few text messages whilst I was away letting me know how they all were (this was a lovely personal touch and although unexpected it was welcomed as my cat is now 16 yrs old and this eased any potential worry that I could of had). I wont hesitate is using Carol again to look after Saffi, and the chicks Bluebell and HyacinthMiss W, Wigginton

Carol provides an excellent, cat friendly service. We have used 'Contented cats' on multiple occasions and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone.  Mrs & Mrs W (and the felines S and Z) - Berkhamsted

Having only recently moved to Tring, we found Carol and Contented Cats through our local vets. On the occasions that we've used her, we've always come home to two blissed out and full-bellied cats and a lovely note detailing the fun and games they've had in our absence. And on the occasion that we sprang a leak while we were hundreds of miles away, Carol was a cast iron 100% above and beyond the call of duty brilliant help. We're so glad that we've found her and would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Contented Cats' services to anyone.  N & N - Tring

Contented Cats provided a seamless service, in fact I don't think either of our two cats noticed our abscense! In addition to this all the communication has been very professional and friendly. We will definately continue to use CC and are pleased to support such an excellent new business. Mrs C - Tring

My cat was diabetic and elderly but the care he received during our holiday was superb. I think he was a little disappointed when we returned! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Contented Cats to any cat owner. Mrs D - Tring

Contented Cats is the purrfect cat care solution when I am away from home. Mrs W - Wiggington

Thanks for providing such a brilliant service for our beloved Alfie, its a great relief to know when we are away you look after him so well in his own home. I would definately recommend contented cats to friends thanks again.  Mrs H - Berkhamsted

Contented Cats are the perfect people to entrust your beloved pets to. We have had several holidays and the level and standard of care was amazing, and far beyond the call of duty. We knew that they were truly safe, happy and in good hands.  Mr & Mrs K - Berkhamsted 

I have two cats, but Contented Cats was less than the price of one cat at the local cattery. In fact the number of cats would not have affected the price - fantastic value! The care my two loved ones received was anything but economy though, both having a half hour playtime in their own home - there was none of the previous sulking when returning from a cage in the cattery. My first experience of Contented Cats, but definitely not my last. Highly recommended!  Mrs J - Aldbury 

Contented cats was our best find this year. We had previously used a Cattery for 3 days and our cats did not talk to us for a week so when we went abroard I'm so glad we found contented cats. Our minds were completely reassured that kitty and copper would be well cared for and they loved being spoilt themselves for two weeks, and it saved us £100!  Miss C - Tring 

It takes a great leap of faith to invite someone into your home while you are away to look after your cats. I am pleased to say that Carol does a wonderful job. Both our cats require medication which she administers as well as spend time with them. The bonus is that she is also keeping an eye on the house twice a day. Mr & Mrs M - Berkhamsted 2012

We use Contented Cats regularly and it gives us complete peace of mind to know that our cat is so well looked after and happy. He always looks very pleased with himself when we get home. Nothing is ever too much trouble for the Contended Cats team and we would recommend using them over a cattery any day of the week. Miss M - Hemel Hempstead 

We have used Contented Cats on a couple of occasions now and have been very happy with the service provided. We have peace of mind that our cat is being well looked after in the comfort of his own home. I would definitely recommend Contented Cats over a cattery.  Miss B - Berkhamsted 

I had complete peace of mind whilst away and can highly recommend Contented Cats to take care of your cat and home. The personalised service was not only cheaper than a cattery, but more convenient too. Mr H - Aldbury 

Contented Cats never fail to go above and beyond the call of duty. We trust them with our home and our furkids. Tilly, Tali and Sephie all give a Five Fish rating!  Mr & Mrs B - Berkhamsted Jan 2011

Excellent, personalised and friendly cat-feeding service. The lady who visits our cat is clearly a genuine cat-lover and she goes above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that our pet is well cared for while we are away. I would highly recommend Contented Cats.  Mrs S - Berkhamsted 

Contented Cats personnel go out of their way to ensure that felines get the best possible care and also provide humans with reassuring information and feedback. I am so grateful they were able to extend my cat's period of care when Iceland's volcano eruption delayed my return from holiday by a week. Miss J - Berkhamsted

Contented Cats provide an exceptional service - friendly and helpful and above my expectations. Both my cats very happy with the service received! would be happy to recommend them to anyone. Miss G - Berkhamsted 

Alfie was a very contented cat on our return from holiday, even after a vet's visit whilst we were away. We couldn't have been happier with the service Carol provided and would recommend Contented Cats to anyone. Mr & Mrs M - Berkhamsted

We couldn't have been happier with the service provided. Our cat was very happy too. Not only fed but cuddled each visit too.  Mrs G - Tring July 2011
