Michael is the best!! This is our second time having him come and help us with our cat pepper while we were away. He even helped us unload our frozen dog food in the refrigerator. Thank you Michael for taking care of our baby!

We're so happy we found Mersades! We're especially grateful that she has experience administering subcutaneous fluids for cats, just in case our little girl with ckd needs it during extended visits. We can finally plan getaways without worrying!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an absolutely wonderful experience. She went above and beyond in every way — took out the trash, fully changed the litter weekly, and showed incredible respect for our home and house rules. Everything was kept clean, organized, and exactly as requested. Most importantly, she was so loving, attentive, and gentle with Bebe. I felt completely at ease knowing both my home and my cat were in such good hands. I would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

Jasmin did a great job caring for our cat Clementine and keeping our house tidy while we were away. We could tell from the photos she sent that Clementine liked having her around, and we were really impressed with how clean our house was when we got home. She went above and beyond caring for our home and our cat.

Eleanor went completely above and beyond to take care of my cats! One of my cats is a too smart for his own good, and he ended up getting into a specific cabinet for the first time and eating a whole bag of treats. Eleanor found a way to keep him out of that cabinet, and she also spent extra time with him to make sure he wasn't having any digestive problems. She's also super knowledgeable about cats and was so communicative with me the whole time I was gone!

This is our second time using Cristina and we are just as impressed and thankful for her detailed and loving care as we were the first time around. She handled our older cats incredibly well, and had no issues administering medication. She even fed our bunny while we were gone. Cristina goes above and beyond! We will definitely use her again.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a child, and love spending time with animals! I also foster cats in my free time and like to volunteer with local shelters! I’m currently in medical school, so this is a part time position for me, helping me to pay for my education and honestly supporting my mental health! I like to provide a calm and stable environment, and take pride in my ability to understand dog/cat body language, which helps me provide appropriate care!

Vivian did a phenomenal job taking care of our cat while we were away. She sent tons of pictures and videos everyday and really eased our nerves about leaving our fur baby at home. She recorded his eating, bathroom, and made sure to play with and brush him. It was a fantastic experience!

About: Hello, I’m Anjali! I’m a lifelong animal lover who is dedicated to providing excellent care and plenty of love to your kitties. I’ve been cat-sitting for friends and family for about five years and later worked in a local cat rescue adoption center for a year, which provided extensive experience taking care of cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I have truly always loved being able to look after and form bonds with the kitties. I am a current volunteer and cat foster with the same rescue, so am constantly expanding my knowledge of cats and how to adapt to their individual quirks. I work hard to nurture and socialize with the cats in my care while working towards finding their forever homes. I have a very thorough understanding of what goes into day-to-day cat care, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and plenty of playtime & affection! Additionally, I have experience with specific care like trimming nails, administering medications, and cleaning eyes & ears; I’m always happy to accommodate cats with special needs! My schedule is very flexible so I am happy to accommodate the schedule of pet owners and their animals for both drop in visits and overnight house sitting. When caring for a cat in a client’s home I request detailed instructions and encourage setting up a meet and greet so I can fully understand the environment and needs of the cat I am providing care for, especially for overnight visits. I can provide feeding, litter box cleaning, playing, basic grooming (brushing, etc.) and additional tasks if requested - my priority is to make sure your kitty is as comfortable as possible while receiving the care they need from me.

This was my first time leaving my cat with a stranger and also the longest I’ve been away since I got her, so I was a bit anxious about it. Mary was so kind and patient, and she took so many photos for each drop-in visit— it was so reassuring to see how well-cared for and happy my pet was! I’ll definitely try to book her again the next time I travel.

Kelly updated me almost daily of activities and sent pictures. Cats are young and Zeus was shy the first week but eventually came out. We were all back to normal routine next day. Kelly followed all our requests for feeding,etc. Only complaint with Cat in a Flat was that I could not contact anyone during scheduling and negotiating rate.

I was gone for two whole weeks, and it was a relief to know that Jasmin was taking care of my cats at the beginning and end of the trip period! My cats are pretty high-maintenance in terms of their dietary and medical needs, and one of them is an absolute menace when it comes to getting into places he shouldn't, so they can be a bit of a challenge, and it's so nice to find someone who can handle them so well!

Harsh was amazing. I had a lot going on at my parents’ house and needed someone last minute. He showed up within 20 minutes of my request without hesitation. He was respectful, polite, and treated my cats like they were his own. I only had to explain things once and he understood everything right away. He made a stressful situation so much easier for me. I’ve already booked him again for a future date and would absolutely recommend him. Your pets will be in safe hands with Harsh.
