Why feline-only matters

Cat Sitting Built Around Cats

Some cats need only a calm daily visit, fresh food and water, clean litter, and a little companionship. Others need medication timing, appetite observation, senior support, diabetic awareness, or closer communication while their family is away.

Cats in the City was built for the full range of feline care needs. Our feline-only model means even simple visits are handled with cat-specific awareness, while more complex situations can be supported with greater observation and structure when needed.

Good cat sitting does not have to be complicated. It does need to be thoughtful, reliable, and centered around how cats actually experience care.
Structured Visit Support

What Our Cat Sitting Visits May Include

Every visit is shaped around the cat in front of us. For many cats, that means preserving a familiar routine with calm, consistent care. For others, it may include medication support, appetite monitoring, senior observation, or communication if something seems different.

Feeding, fresh water, and routine preservation
Litter box care and home environment checks
Calm companionship, enrichment, or quiet presence depending on the cat
Medication, insulin, or senior support when appropriate
Photo updates, written notes, and communication if concerns arise
Flexible Care Levels

From Simple Visits to Higher-Support Care

Many cats simply need dependable, low-stress care while their people are away. Others benefit from sitters who understand medication routines, appetite changes, shy cat behavior, senior mobility shifts, diabetic safety, or post-surgical recovery.

Our strength is that we can support both. Cats in the City provides professional feline care that feels appropriate for easygoing cats while still offering deeper observation for cats whose needs are more layered.

Boarding Crossover

Some Cats Need More Than Drop-In Visits

Cat sitting is a strong fit for many cats. But some cats are safer with overnight care, boarding, diabetic boarding, appetite monitoring, or more continuous observation.

We do not assume one care model is right for every cat. When sitting is appropriate, we support it. When a cat may need more, we help families think through that decision clearly.
