Local know-how pays off in Perth
Perth has the hottest January of the five biggest cities at 31.4 degrees, but it is dry heat and the overnight average falls to 18.2, so unlike a Brisbane dog a Perth dog cools down properly by morning. The day also runs to a schedule. The sea breeze off the Indian Ocean that everyone here calls the Fremantle Doctor arrives in the afternoon and reaches the coast first, so Cottesloe, Scarborough and Fremantle get their walkable hour back well before the inland suburbs do.
When demand peaks
Fly-in fly-out rosters run deeper in Perth than anywhere else, and they pay no attention to the school calendar. A swing is weeks rather than a weekend, so the request is long-form care on a repeating cycle, which is steady work for a sitter who can commit to the pattern. Western Australian term dates also sit out of step with the east, worth knowing if you take bookings from interstate families passing through in the holidays.
Know your Perth areas
Most cat bookings cluster from Fremantle and Cottesloe up the coast to Scarborough and Joondalup, and inland through Subiaco, Leederville and Mount Lawley. Owners book the sitter who can reach them quickly for a daily visit, so the areas you list matter more than the distance you are willing to travel.
Cat homes in Perth
Perth is long and thin, and cat visits are where that bites. Fremantle to Joondalup is most of an hour in traffic, so the round you can actually run is a handful of suburbs rather than a city. Sitters who name Subiaco, Leederville and Claremont, or the Fremantle end, or the northern coastal suburbs, get found by the owners who are two streets away.

Snakes are the Western Australian risk that surprises people who move over from the east. Dugites and tiger snakes are active across the Perth metro area and the south west through the warm months, most visibly in spring when they are on the move, so stay on formed paths, keep dogs out of long grass, undergrowth and the edges of drains and wetlands, and know where your nearest 24-hour emergency vet is before you need it. The paralysis tick that eastern sitters watch for is not established here.
