What Is Cat Sitting?

Cat sitting is a specialised service where experienced sitters care for a cat in their own home while the owners are away. Unlike traditional pet boarding options, pet sitting allows our feline friend to remain in their familiar environment, reducing stress and anxiety.

A professional cat sitter doesn't just feed and clean up after cats — they provide companionship, monitor health, and ensure our pets receive personalised attention. From administering medication to maintaining their regular playtime, a cat sitter ensures all cats feel loved and secure in the absence of their humans.

The Benefits of Our Cat Sitting Services

• Cost-Effective Solution:Forget expensive catteries. With a sitter, your cat receives premium care at a fraction of the cost.
