Cat Sitting

$50

Wenfei Z (Stephen) did an excellent job. My lucky cat was well looked after, Stephen followed the instructions and kept me updated with regular photos and videos. I could relax and enjoy my holidays comfortable in the knowledge that my darlin' cat Lucy was well looked after. We've just caught up to finish the deal and I am really happy to have met such a lovely and reliable person. I highly recommend Stephen and wish him all the best. Thankyou.

What do cat sitting services include?

The cat sitting service includes all the tasks and activities necessary to care for your cat while you’re away. This involves feeding and medicating your cat if required, sending you updates, having some playtime and cleaning out their litter box as necessary. 

Feeding and playing with your cat

Your hired cat sitter can go to your home to feed your cat. This may include cleaning your cat’s food and water bowls and cleaning them out after your cat has eaten. Your cat sitter can give your cat the prescribed amount of food, and even feed them only the food and amount you specify if they are on a strict diet.  

Some cat sitters can provide the cat food should your supply run out, but this can cost extra. After their meal, your cat sitter can stay with your cat for a while to play with them and keep them from feeling sad or lonely. Some cat sitters make this part of the service package, but some may charge a little extra.  

Giving them their medication

Your hired cat sitter can give elderly cats or cats with medical issues the medication they need. The cat sitter can give your cat eye drops, ear drops, feed them pills and apply most other medication your cat needs, all while following the prescribed dosage instructions. Some cat sitters may replenish the prescriptions should these run out, but they may charge a separate fee for this.

Sending updates

Thanks to smartphones and messaging apps, you don’t have to wonder or worry about your cat’s status every minute. Your cat sitter can send you updates in the form of pictures, video recordings, real-time videos or any combination of these sent to you through one of these apps. These updates of your cat can be sent each time your cat sitter goes to your home to check in on your beloved kitty. 

Cleaning the litter box

With no one to clean the litter box, the house can foul up, and your cat may eventually refuse to use the litter box and do their business in random areas. To avoid this, your cat sitter can dispose of the used kitty litter and replace it with a fresh batch. This can be done as often as needed. 

Other services

Some cat sitters may offer extra services for an additional fee. This can include cleaning out areas that your cat may have made a mess in, taking out the garbage, checking your mailbox and placing the mail on your counter, or bringing in any newspapers or packages that were left on your doorstep. 

This can help keep up the impression that your house isn’t completely empty and deter any would-be intruders. But if you are also concerned with the security of your home while you’re away, consider hiring a house sitting service or house sitters.

Cat sitter for 13 days ☺️

$180

Reservoir VIC, Australia

27th Oct 2024

Looking for a dedicated cat sitter to care for my sweet bobtail cat, Meni, for 13 days (Dec 5th to Dec 17th) Meni is a very social and kind cat who loves company and playtime. He has some separation anxiety, so he’ll need someone who can spend time with him and keep him entertained. I’ll provide all his food, and since he’s an indoor cat, we prefer he stays inside. If you’re a cat lover who’s comfortable with a friendly, affectionate feline, I’d love to hear from you!

La Trobe Ward VIC, Australia

26th Jul 2023

Need help asap ‼️‼️‼️ Hey there everyone! Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, I do need my cats to be temporarily taken care of. I am currently trying to move houses and at the same time, I am about to travel. It breaks my heart having to be away from them, they are my world. Let me tell you about my 3 cats! Sammy: medium hair, domestic tabby cat! Sammy is 2.5 years old (almost3), the mum of the group, she’s very cuddly and loves to lay on your chest. She ADORES head scratches and that purely will let you get on her good side, otherwise, she’s very independent and will probably just be chilling with her daughter, Karen. Karen: short hair, domestic tabby cat! Karen is 1.5 years old. Sammy’s daughter! Either Karen will be wanting to cuddle with you, or she will be grooming her own Mother! She’s also very independent! Lunar: short hair, domestic (orange,white and black) cat! Lunar is 1-2 years old. She’s probably the most chilled out cat I’ve ever met. She’s one of my close friends cat that I’m currently fostering for the time being, but have been keeping her much longer than expected. Lunar will probably be hiding throughout the house, and will only come out when she needs to, but, if she likes you; she’ll want endless cuddles! 🥰 All cats are desexed! - Due date: Needs to be done on Thursday, 13 July 2023

I’m going away from 16th December to 12th January and need someone to take care of my beautiful chilled out 6 year cat Boogie. He will need to be kept inside your home for the first few days but should then be ok going outside during the day (if you’re comfortable with that). He needs feeding twice a day and loves cuddles on the couch. Other than that he’s sooooo chill and you’ll love having him around. I don’t mind where in Melbourne you live but it would be easiest if you were inner north/north for drop off and pick up as I’m in Preston. 🐱💓💁🏻‍♀️ - Due date: Needs to be done on Friday, 16 December 2022
