    This was my first time using a cat sitter and I feel very lucky that I got Isha. Charlie is a rescue cat, and kennels were just not working out for her, so this was the perfect solution. Getting daily pictures, and coming back to a happy cat means that I will definitely contact Isha again when I go away. She's clearly a massive cat lover, so I can't recommend her enough.

Some cats need more attention than others, especially young kittens, elderly cats and kitties who need medication. For these cats, an overnight sitter can be a better solution than a daily visitor while you are away. Holiday cat feeders are also a great alternative to cat boarding: cats can stay happy in the comfort of their own home.

You will have the reassurance that a cat-loving carer will be at your furry friend's side from evening to morning. An overnight cat sitter also provides peace of mind that your property isn't left empty for long periods of time.

Meet screened and trusted carers who go beyond feeding your cat and changing the litter. Playing and socializing with your cat is just as important, as is sending you daily updates and photos.

Cat minders on Cat in a Flat offer a range of tailored at-home cat care options depending on your kitty's needs. Search our community to find the best local cat sitter experienced in administering medication, and even doing injections. Many will also be happy to water your plants and pick up the post.
