Most loving cat parents don’t like leaving their cats for long periods, so planning a vacation or a weekend getaway can be nerve-racking. Should you board your cat, or have a friend with no cat experience tend to them on your behalf? In either case, your cat will experience an uncomfortable disruption of daily routines that can cause them long-term fear and anxiety. If your cat feels abandoned, it can cause health and behavior problems such as litter box avoidance, constipation, increased aloofness, and over grooming, so choosing the right sitter option for your cat is very important – and you don’t have to search anymore!
Smiling Kitty offers professional cat-sitting in your home. Your cat does not have to endure the stress of leaving the comforts of home and traveling to a new, unfamiliar place. We consider your cat’s habits and follow the feeding, petting, and play routine your cat is used to. Our sitter is a certified cat behaviorist, so you can rest assured that your cat will not be stressed by inappropriate handling, too much petting, forced playtime, or other misplaced human behavior. Our sitter understands and respects cat body language and provides care based on individual preferences such as age, personality, health, and breed. During your vacation, you will receive daily picture and video updates to ensure that all is well with your feline friends.
