FAQs
What to expect from an in-home cat sitting service
Daily cat sitting services can start from 10 $ per visit and should last 20-40 minutes. This allows your kitty to get fresh food & water, a cleaned litter box, lots of affection and a chance to play. You can also look forward to reassuring daily updates and photos of your cat while you’re away.
Avoid the stress of a cat boarding facility and return home to happy, relaxed kitties enjoying the comforts of their own home.
How to become a cat sitter?
To become a cat sitter with Cat in a Flat, simply register and submit your profile. We will take you through a step by step process and let you know if you have been approved.
The amount you can earn as a cat sitter depends on the level of service you provide. Most cat sitters charge 12 - 18 $ for a once-daily home visit or 18 - 30 $ to drop in twice a day. Cat sitters usually charge 20 - 50 $ for overnight cat sitting stays. You can look after more than one household of cats at a time if they only need daily home visits. Many cat sitters also charge a little extra for additional services such as watering the plants. More expensive cat sitters tend to be the ones with more experience and who can administer medication.
