¿Qué es Cat Sitting?

Cat sitting means a dedicated sitter cares for your cat in their own home while you're away. Cats are creatures of habit — they thrive on routine, familiar smells, and their own territory. Moving a cat to an unfamiliar environment (or worse, a cattery) causes unnecessary stress. With cat sitting on The Pet Sitter, your cat stays right where they're happiest.

Your cat sitter visits or stays at your home, maintaining feeding schedules, cleaning litter boxes, providing fresh water, and giving your cat the attention and play time they need. For multi-cat households, this is especially practical — no need to transport multiple cats or pay per-cat kennel fees.

Cat sitters on The Pet Sitter keep 100% of their earnings. No commission means affordable rates for owners and fair pay for sitters who genuinely love caring for cats.

Book a meet-and-greet at your home. Your sitter gets to know your cat, learns the routine, and gets comfortable with the space.

Give your sitter the house keys and leave detailed care instructions — feeding times, medications, vet details, and your cat's favourite hiding spots.

Paso 3

Relax while your cat is cared for

Receive daily photo updates. Come home to a happy, well-fed cat and a clean litter box.

Preguntas frecuentes

How much does cat sitting cost?
Cat sitting rates typically range from $15–$30 per visit for drop-ins, or $50–$100 per night if the sitter stays overnight. On The Pet Sitter, sitters keep 100% — no commission means better value.
Is it better to have a cat sitter or use a cattery?
Most vets recommend in-home cat sitting over catteries. Cats are territorial and stress easily in unfamiliar environments. A sitter coming to your home means zero disruption to your cat's routine, no exposure to other cats' illnesses, and a much calmer experience overall.
Can a cat sitter give my cat medication?
Yes! Many of our cat sitters are experienced with administering pills, liquid medications, eye drops, and even insulin injections. Check sitter profiles for medical care experience and discuss specifics during the meet-and-greet.
How often should the cat sitter visit?
For most healthy adult cats, one or two visits per day is sufficient. Kittens, senior cats, or cats with medical needs may need more frequent visits or an overnight house sitter.
What if my cat is shy or hides from strangers?
This is very common! A good cat sitter knows to give shy cats space, letting them approach on their own terms. The meet-and-greet helps your cat start getting comfortable before you leave. Most shy cats warm up within a day or two.
