Cat Sitting
traditional cat care
Sometimes you have to leave your cats. Traditionally people leave their cats with friends or family (with the guilt of having to ask) or alternatively they might put them into a cattery. However catteries can be stressful environments; there will be other cats there, your cat may have little space to roam around and there will be new smells and sounds around every corner. Not to mention the dreaded car journey which alone can be too much for some cats. And dare we mention it, the cat carrier...
an alternative
Cat sitting offers a feline friendly cattery alternative. A cat sitter will come to your house to look after your cat while you are away. Your cat gets to stay in an environment that they are familiar and comfortable in, which is less traumatic for them. Of course they will miss you, but a cat sitter can try to replicate their usual routine as much as possible, while providing bespoke and tailored care and attention, which will lessen the stress for your cat.
Cat sitting is the ideal alternative to a cattery if your cat is independent, likes the creature comforts of its own home, dislikes traveling or is territorial and hates the sight of other cats.
additional cat sitting perks
Engaging a cat sitter also means less stress and inconvenience for you. Unlike catteries which often have allocated drop off and pick up times, we work around you. Our services fit around your travel times, and if you’re ever delayed we can extend our visits until you are back safely.
It is not just your cat that we look after, we also provide a ‘lived in’ presence in your home, keeping it safe and deterring any criminal activities. We can also water indoor and patio plants, take bins out and bring in any post / deliveries.
