Cat sitters near me in Canada

Cats stress less at home. Petme drop-ins and house sitting in your place. 0% owner fee, up to 5% cashback, CAD 20,000 vet protection.

Cats are not small dogs. They do better in their own home, with their own litter box, food bowl, and window perch, than in a boarding facility. Petme cat sitters come to you: drop-in visits once or twice a day for short trips, full overnight house sitting for longer travel. Pick your city below to see local sitters and pricing.

Why Petme

Why Canadian cat owners pick Petme

Cat sitting has its own economics: shorter visits, more visits per trip, longer travel durations. The 0% owner fee and up to 5% cashback combo compounds quickly across a multi-night house-sitting or twice-daily drop-in booking.

0% service fee for pet owners

Most booking platforms add a service fee on top of the sitter's rate at checkout. Petme adds 0%. You pay only the rate the sitter set, every booking.

CAD 20,000 vet protection, included

Every Petme booking automatically includes up to CAD 20,000 in vet expenses if something happens during the stay. No deductible, no upgrade tier, at any licensed Canadian clinic. Petme coordinates with the clinic from inside the app.

Up to 5% cashback, automatic

When a booking completes, up to 5% lands in your Petme balance. Use it toward the next booking. No expiry, no minimum, no opt-in. Repeat bookings compound the rebate.

Verified, ID-checked sitters

Every Petme sitter passes identity verification before their profile goes live. Reviews are open and unfiltered, so you can see who is established before you book.

Same sitter, every booking

Search and rebook the same sitter directly. No matchmaking churn, no rotating strangers. Most Petme owners settle on one preferred sitter after a few bookings and stay with them for years.

Transparent pricing, no surprises

The price you see is the price you pay. No checkout service fee, no surprise add-on charge. Extras like an additional walk or a second pet carry 0% owner fee too.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about cat sitters near you in Canada

How do I find a cat sitter near me in Canada?
Pick your city below, read profiles and reviews, message for free, hold a meet-and-greet, then book in the app. Petme cat sitters come to your home for drop-in visits or overnight house sitting.
Is house sitting better than drop-ins for my cat?
For most cats, twice-daily drop-in visits are enough and cheaper. For cats with separation anxiety, complex medical needs, or unusual routines, overnight house sitting is worth the premium. Mention your cat's temperament at the meet-and-greet.
Can my cat sitter give medication or insulin?
Many Petme cat sitters administer pills, eye drops, or insulin. Mention medical needs in the booking request; the sitter confirms comfort with the protocol before accepting. The CAD 20,000 vet protection covers any in-stay incident.
How much does a cat sitter cost in Canada?
In-home visits run about CAD 20 to 45 a visit. A week of twice-daily drop-ins is often cheaper than boarding a dog, and your cat never leaves home. Petme adds 0% owner fee on top.
Can sitters watch multi-cat households?
Yes. Many Petme cat sitters specialise in two-to-four-cat households, with 0% owner fee on multi-cat add-ons. Note each cat's feeding and medication needs in the booking.
Are Petme cat sitters verified?
Yes. Every sitter passes identity verification before their profile goes live, and reviews are open and unfiltered. Filter by cat-experienced to narrow further.
Can a cat sitter come while I travel?
Yes. Twice-daily drop-in visits keep your cat fed, watered, and on routine while you are away. Book one to two weeks ahead during holiday windows.
