Which custom visit might be best for my cat?
We would love to chat about your cats needs to help you choose, but here are some examples below.
30 minute visit- $25.00
This is our standard cat sitting visit for a one or two healthy cat household.
Cat pros know that even shy cats need social interaction with soft spoken communication, so we do not provide a “quick drop in- less than 30 minutes” service.
45 minute visit- $35.00
Some cats are all play and need a little extra time for zoomies and wind down time or maybe, they are they a slow eater? This option allows time for extra cat enrichment and wellbeing. Most pet parents choose this option with more than a two cat household.
60 minute visit- $45.00
Whether you have a Cat Clowder (three or more cat household) or a single cat that needs company this visit allows for extra time. Let’s chat about how we can accommodate a longer visit for you and your cat needs.
Let’s customize a predictable routine care for your feline baby for stress free visits while you are away.
