Frequently asked questions

Cat sitter questions in Vaughan

How many visits a day does a cat in Sonoma Heights need?

One visit a day covers a healthy adult cat: food, fresh water, litter, and some company. Two makes sense for kittens, seniors, cats on medication, or a multi-cat household. Sitters in Sonoma Heights agree the timing with you before the first visit, and most send a photo at the end of each one so you can see how Vaughan looks from your cat's side of it.

Why home visits in Sonoma Heights instead of boarding?

Cats bond to territory rather than to people the way dogs do, so the move itself is the stressful part, not the time alone. That is why the cat service across Vaughan is the drop-in visit: your cat stays in its own home in Sonoma Heights and only the person changes. It also avoids driving a carrier across town in the middle of a Canadian winter.

How much does a cat sitter cost in Vaughan?

Drop-in cat visits in Vaughan typically cost $20 to $28 CAD per visit. Thornhill, Vaughan Metropolitan Centre, and Kleinburg sit at the higher end; the outer subdivisions are a little lower. Overnight in-home sitting runs $48 to $75 CAD per night. Sitters set their own rate and you see the total before booking.

Do Vaughan sitters cover Woodbridge and Maple?

Yes. Sitters set their own coverage areas. Many cover their own neighbourhood; some cover the whole city and into Richmond Hill or King. Use the Vaughan filter and check each sitter's coverage map. Woodbridge, Maple, Kleinburg, and Concord are all represented.

My family is going to Italy for three weeks. Will Petme handle that?

Yes. Three-week bookings are common in Vaughan given the strong Italian-Canadian family-travel pattern. Confirm continuous availability with the sitter, arrange a meet and greet a week or so before departure, and book one or two visits per day depending on the cats' needs.

My senior cat needs medication. Can the sitter manage?

Yes if the sitter is medication-experienced. Filter for 'medication experienced' and message a few sitters in chat. Pills, transdermal gels, oral drops, and ear drops are routine. Demonstrate at the meet and greet so the sitter is comfortable on day one.

How do I handle the alarm system for a multi-week booking?

Set a temporary code for the duration of the booking, or share the standard code in writing at the meet and greet. Many Vaughan owners use smart locks with one-time codes per sitter. Confirm with the sitter how the alarm is set when they leave each visit.

Can I book a sitter near the new subway extension?

Yes. Vaughan Metropolitan Centre and the surrounding condos along the subway line are well covered in the sitter pool. Hand the sitter a fob and key at the meet and greet, and mention any concierge or visitor-registration requirements in the booking notes.

My cat is shy and hides under the bed. Will the sitter cope?

Yes. Vaughan sitters are used to shy cats in family detached homes. The sitter refills food and water, scoops the litter, looks for the cat without forcing interaction, and reports what they observed. Most shy cats start showing up by the third or fourth visit.

Is the CAD 32,000 Protection Plan valid at Vaughan vet clinics?

Yes. Every Petme booking in Vaughan includes up to CAD 32,000 in emergency Protection Plan at any licensed Ontario vet clinic during the sitter's care window. No deductible, no enrollment, no extra fee. Coverage runs from the first visit to the last visit.
