Catsitting in Overijse by a cat behaviourist
What is in-home catsitting?
In-home catsitting in Overijse means your cat stays in her familiar environment while I visit daily to provide food, clean the litter box, and offer play or comfort — depending on your cat’s needs.
As a certified cat behaviourist, I adapt to every cat’s unique personality. Whether your cat is a brave little tiger who loves to play all day, or a shy soul who prefers to keep her distance from strangers — I make sure she gets exactly what she needs while you’re away.

Why choose in-home catsitting?
Cats are territorial by nature — they feel safest in their own environment. Travelling to a cattery can cause stress, confusion and even behavioural issues, especially for sensitive or older cats.
With in-home catsitting in Overijse, you choose peace, comfort, and peace of mind—for both you and your cat.
Here’s what you can expect:
- Personalised attention tailored to your cat’s character and energy level
- Daily updates with photos or videos
- Your cat sets the pace – I sense what they need and adapt accordingly
- As a feline behaviourist, I quickly reassure your cat and work preventively to reduce stress
- I also care for other animals (like fish, chickens, rabbits, …) with just as much love
- Your home looks lived-in – an added layer of security
- Small extras are included: watering plants, collecting mail, operating shutters, taking out the trash
- Need medication administered? That’s also included in the price
Catteries can be stressful for some cats: new smells, strange noises, and unfamiliar animals.
Why not a cattery?
In-home catsitting avoids:
- Transportation stress
- Risk of illness from other cats
- Interruptions in feeding or litter habits
- Extra costs for more than one cat

About me
I’m Kelly, a cat behaviour therapist and in-home cat sitter based in Overijse.
My deep love for cats began eight years ago when Ziva came into my life. She showed me how complex, sensitive and wise cats truly are. Since then, I’ve been continuously learning about feline behaviour — and about how we, as humans, can truly support their wellbeing.
In my work, I combine scientific knowledge of cat behaviour with genuine care and intuitive attunement. No rushed visits — just real, focused attention on what your cat needs.
I cover Overijse and nearby areas like Jezus-Eik, Maleizen, Terlanen and Tombeek.

In their own words
Sharon
Mom of Onyx
“It was perfect for us. We felt lots of kindness and heart coming from you and your approach as well as a deep understanding of cat behaviour. We were surprised that you managed to connect so quickly with Onyx. So, we felt instantly at ease and in trust.“
Tudor
Dad of Cookie and Rebecca
“Great care and attention to all the details! We could not be happier with the services and we always leave home assured that our two cats will stay happy, comfortable and healthy. If you need help with your cats, this is the right place to be! Kelly is very professional and she genuinely cares about our little cat friends. Our expectations were superseded by her services and her advice about little improvements for our senior cat’s comfort really worked and improved her quality of life. And on top of everything, she is a really nice person :)”
