About Marjatta
I am a retired lady and grandmother of 2 boys + their Ragdoll cat Eemil. This means a good experience as boy and cat sitter, flexibility and adaptation.

I am a retired lady and grandmother of 2 boys + their Ragdoll cat Eemil. This means a good experience as boy and cat sitter, flexibility and adaptation. I love travelling, reading, music, theatre, opera. I am very easy going and social but also like to stay alone and quiet. My languages are English, French, German (enough..), Swedish and Finnish. I have worked some short (2-3 months) periods in London and Nice. I neither smoke nor drink.
Why I want to house sit
I would like to experience living in the normal surroundings, not in the hotels, buying my food from the local shops and cooking it myself, talk to local people and also socialize, improve my language etc.
My experience
I worked as management assistant in a big company before retiring. So I am used to manage what ever comes ahead! I live in the city but can also manage in the country house due to my summer cottage and all those responsibilities there. I love specially cats and they love me back! Have expericnce of country cats during all my childhood and now later the Ragdoll Eemil, who is mainly indoor cat but loves to be also in leash outside in summertime.

Marjatta took wonderful care of our home and our cat Jura this spring. She was very flexible and easy going when it came to logistics and we came home to a spotless house and a very happy cat. She sent us a few updates and pictures via WhatsApp while we were gone and it was clear that both she and Jura were having a great time. We couldn't recommend her more highly and hope she will come sit for us again sometime!

This was the first time I've had anyone staying to cat sit, and it was a great experience - I came back to a very happy cat, and a spotless house. Marjatta is a lovely, warm, reliable person, and kept in touch during the week by text - was great to know all was fine. Puss Puss enjoyed her company so much he brought in some 'presents' a couple of times.... Marjatta handled it all so capably, and good-humouredly - thank you again!!- Organised

Marjatta was a great catsitter. We came home to a clean and tidy house and most importantly - a happy cat. Would happily have her back any day!
