Josephine was a wonderful sitter for our cat Bailey - who is now yowling after being collected because he preferred being on 'holiday' with Josephine and her cats. We received regular updates and all communication was seamless. Would highly recommend!

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.

Requesting someone to look after my Freddie while I am in America. He’s a two year old cat who is very affectionate… I’m gone from 24th - 10th October & really want to make sure he’s left in good hands with someone who will take good care of him!

Can’t thank Tahnia enough for taking care of my Freddie. Totally put my mind at ease while I was overseas for a couple of weeks. I got multiple updates with pictures. He had a great time! Tahnia came and spent some time at my house first so Freddie could get used to her before taking him with her and dropped him home! Unbelievable service. Thank you again to you and your family for looking after my wee man!!!! Highly recommend! :)

We're looking for a bonafide and experienced cat lover to look after our two kitties while away. They are awesome kitties: clean, cuddly, never hurt a fly (ok they have hurt bugs but bugs are their limit - anything larger than a lizard is beyond their skill set), The challenge is that they are proper scaredy cats - seriously. They are absolute lapcats and have the best personality but with one drawback: they are scared of everyone except us. They are rescues we got during lockdowns and despite best efforts, they are still very skittish around people. Basically, we are looking for someone like us who loves cats, has patience and understands the effort it takes to win a cat's trust, understand how cats behave and loves cuddles. We are going away for three weeks, and looking to live at our house in Camperdown. You'll have yourself the whole place to yourself + two cats to look after. - Due date: Needs to be done on Thursday, 11 August 2022
