My name is Christian. As a cat lover and cat owner, I know how important calm, routine and trust are. Every cat communicates differently, so every visit follows their character, habits, medication needs and pace.
Care is more than food and a clean litter box: I pay attention to behaviour, wellbeing, appetite and the small signals that show how your cat is really doing.

Gizmo, Pascha and Pablo remind me every day why calm, personal care matters.

My loyal shadow at home: happiest nearby, fond of a warm lap and always alert when treats appear.

An older lady who appreciates calm, routine and attention on her own terms.

The youngest of the bunch, very food-motivated and always ready to bring a little energy into the room.
From introduction to coming home: everything clearly arranged so you can leave with peace of mind.
Before the first booking, I visit your home to meet your cat.
We discuss the daily routine, feeding, care, medication and any special requirements.
While you are away, your cat receives care in its own familiar environment.
From fresh food and a clean litter box to attention, playtime and wellbeing checks. I always work carefully, with attention to hygiene and safety.

This way you always know how your cat is doing.
You return home to a relaxed cat that has been able to keep its familiar routine.

Besides taking care of your cat, I can also help with small practical things while you are away.

Real experiences from cat owners in Enschede and nearby areas.
βChristian has looked after our cats several times already and I think you are incredibly lucky to have a cat sitter like him. He takes the time to get to know you and your cats, has experience with his own cats and understands cat behaviour extremely well. He cares for every cat as if it were his own. His communication is clear and almost everything can be discussed. He also likes to sit with the cats for a while instead of doing a visit where he only quickly cleans the litter box and feeds the cats. Recommended!β
βWe used Kattenoppas Enschede over the past 10 days. After a lot of hesitation between a cattery or staying at home, we eventually chose the latter option. In hindsight, this was the right choice. Especially because Kattenoppas Enschede was exactly what we hoped for. Christian came by neatly every day and made sure they had both eaten before he left. A little cuddling and petting was the finishing touch. Every day you receive updates from Christian with photos and videos of the cats. That feels good from a distance. I would recommend Kattenoppas Enschede to everyone. We will definitely use it again in the future.
Christian, thank you for your good care. Also on behalf of Mickey and Teddie!β
βChristian has taken care of our two cats for over a week. He was wonderful with them, understanding their needs and patient, quickly gaining their trust. While cat sitting he also took great care of our plants and house in general, giving us a sense of ease while we were not there. He is reliable, professional and caring in his job, we highly recommend him!β
You can choose between different packages: Basic (15 minutes), Comfort (25 minutes) or Premium (40 minutes).
The best option depends on your cat, their daily routine and how much care or attention is needed.
During the introduction visit, we look together at what suits both your cat and your wishes as an owner.
Yes. Before the first cat sitting period, we always plan a free introduction visit at your home.
This is not only for practical details, but especially to meet your cat calmly.
We discuss the daily routine, feeding, litter box, personality, favourite spots, medication and any special requirements.
This helps keep the care as familiar as possible while you are away.
Yes. After every home visit you receive a personal update via WhatsApp.
During the visit, I try to take a few nice photos or short videos whenever your cat is comfortable with that.
I send the best moments to you, so you can see how things are going at home.
Yes, that is exactly the main advantage of cat sitting at home.
Many cats become stressed by a cattery or temporary move. New smells, unfamiliar sounds and a different environment can cause a lot of tension.
With cat sitting at home, your cat stays safe in their familiar environment, with the same smells, sleeping places and daily routine.
Giving medication according to the owner's instructions is possible.
During the introduction visit, we calmly discuss what care is needed and how your cat usually responds.
There is experience with oral medication such as tablets and liquid medication, as well as with cats with asthma who need a daily inhaler.
During every visit, Kattenoppas Enschede pays attention to your cat's behaviour, health and wellbeing.
This includes appetite, general condition and noticeable changes such as small wounds, ticks, signs of illness or unusual behaviour.
During the introduction visit, an emergency contact and the details of your own veterinarian are recorded.
If there are any concerns, we contact you and discuss the next steps together.
If there is an emergency and immediate action is necessary, Kattenoppas Enschede may independently decide, in the interest of the cat, to contact a veterinarian or visit a veterinarian.
The cat's own veterinarian is always preferred. If they are not available, another available veterinarian or emergency clinic will be chosen.
Because visits are carried out by car, your cat can be transported safely if needed.
Transport and assistance to the veterinarian have an additional fee. Any veterinary costs, treatments and medication always remain the responsibility of the owner.
Yes, multiple cats are no problem.
Every cat has their own personality, routine and needs. That is why we discuss the situation carefully during the introduction visit.
It is important to allow enough time. More cats often means more care, cleaning and attention.
Together we choose the package that fits best.
Yes, depending on the package, small extra tasks can be included.
With Basic, the full focus is on your cat: food, water, litter box and a wellbeing check.
With Comfort and Premium, there is more room for extra tasks such as watering plants, collecting mail or putting out the bin.
Before the cat sitting period, we agree together how the key will be handed over.
For regular clients, I also offer free key keeping. This means I keep a key safely, so a new handover is not needed for every booking.
Keys are stored securely without an address label or recognisable personal details.
Sometimes something unexpected happens and you need cat sitting quickly.
Depending on availability, urgent requests within 48 hours may be possible at the urgent visit rate.
Because this often requires extra planning or changes to the schedule, a separate rate applies.
Kattenoppas Enschede mainly focuses on Enschede and the immediate surrounding area.
Do you live in a nearby village? Feel free to get in touch. Depending on distance, planning and availability, we can look at the options together.
Additional travel costs may apply for locations outside the standard service area.
The health and safety of every cat always comes first.
Because I visit multiple households, I follow standard hygiene measures between visits.
This includes washing or disinfecting my hands, working cleanly and taking extra precautions when a cat is unwell.
This helps reduce risks and ensures safe and responsible care for every cat.
