Cat Care

Cat Sitters in the UK

Most cats are happiest in the comfort of their own home. A trusted cat sitter lets your cat keep their familiar routine while you're away, without the stress of a cattery.

Cat sitters typically visit your home once or twice a day to take care of feeding, fresh water, litter cleaning and a little companionship. For more independent cats, this gentle daily check-in is often the kindest option during holidays or work trips.

A good sitter will also keep an eye on your home — bringing in post, opening curtains and watching for anything unusual — giving you complete peace of mind while you're away.

When choosing a cat sitter, consider:

  • Experience caring for cats with different temperaments
  • Insurance and a clear visit schedule
  • Reviews and recommendations from other owners
  • Comfort with medication or special dietary needs
