Professional Cat Sitting in Ocala, FL

Of all the pets we care for, cats are the happiest at home, surrounded by familiar sights, smells, and sounds. For years, cat owners had limited options when away for an extended period: rely on a friend or neighbor and hope they show up, pay for stressful boarding at a kennel, or leave their cat home alone with a pile of food. None of these are ideal for your cat.

Here are 7 reasons professional cat sitters like Ocala Pet Sitting are raising the standards of cat sitting.

​

1. Your cats stay safe and comfortable at home, maintaining their regular routines and following their regular schedule.
    

2. Professional Pet Sitters that Specialize in Cat Care put your cat's needs first on our schedules. Pet sitters who also care for dogs have to "fit" cat visits around their dog client's schedules in order to let dogs outside to potty. 
    

3. Not all pet sitters are created equal. At OPS, we understand that cats require special care. Our cat sitters have a gentle demeanor, a soft voice, and 'speak' cat through their body language. We know it's rare to find a sitter who is equally skilled with both cats and dogs. That's why our shadow training evaluates each sitter's knowledge and interactions with cats. If a sitter is better suited for dogs, we ensure they are not assigned to cat-only visits.
    

4. Professionals like OPS will provide you with updates and pictures to show you exactly what's happening at home with your cat, every visit. No more of the anxiety that often results from leaving a cat behind or placing your cat in a strange environment.
    

5. As a cat lover, you probably know that cats are masters at hiding illness. Professionals are experienced in noticing subtle differences in their behavior, and pay attention to changes in their litter box activities ('input and output,' and know how to adapt to your cat's changing needs.
    

6. Your cat will be pampered by a caring and dependable professional using all the care instructions that you specify.
    

7. At Ocala Pet Sitting, we have a Signature Service Guarantee that comes from the H.E.A.R.T. developed by our resident cat expert, Shannon Hendon.
