A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Regina

A Regina cat visit is half about the house. January lows average -20.0C, so a sitter checks that the furnace is running and the taps are not frozen before locking up. A power cut in that cold turns one visit into two. In July, when highs average 25.6C, the job becomes water bowls and whether the air conditioning is on.

When demand peaks

Two weeks fill first. Regina Public Schools have no classes February 16 to 19, 2027, with Family Day on the 15th, and the University of Regina breaks the same week. Winter vacation runs December 21 to 31, and school re-opens January 4. Summer bookings start once classes end June 25.

Know your Regina areas

Apartments are about a quarter of Regina's dwellings, and the older blocks sit Downtown and along Cathedral, with newer housing out in Harbour Landing. Those are the streets where keys stack: several handovers within a few blocks, and a fob at the door instead of a driveway to clear.

Cat homes in Regina

Single detached houses are 63.1% of Regina's dwellings and apartments about a quarter, so cat clients split between Downtown blocks and houses out in Lakeview. January lows average -20.0C, so a cat stays indoors for months. Owners leave a key and want the furnace looked at.

Bilingual owners book faster

Canada is officially bilingual, and in Quebec, parts of New Brunswick and the Ottawa region owners search and message in French. A sitter who says in their profile that they work in French as well as English books faster in those neighbourhoods.

The work itself

What a cat sitting job in Regina actually involves

Cat sitting is a drop-in service, so the cat never leaves home. You let yourself in with a key or a code the owner sets up, spend 20 to 30 minutes on food, water, the litter box and some company, check the place over, and send a photo before you lock up. Owners in Regina book it because a cat that stays home stays calm. One traveler booking twice a day for ten days is twenty visits from a single client.

Keys and access

Most Regina owners hand over a spare key, a lockbox code or a smart-lock code at the meet-and-greet. Agree where the key lives and how you get in if the code fails, and confirm it before the owner leaves town.

The visit

Fresh food and water, the litter box scooped, a look at the cat and a few minutes of play or a brush. You note anything off, like a skipped meal or a hidden cat, so the owner hears it from you first.

The update

A photo and two lines in the app after every visit. Owners who cannot see their cat for a week live on those messages, and a sitter who sends them without being asked is the one they rebook.

Where demand is strongest

Regina areas that book the most

Cat sitting in Regina is booked by apartment households around Downtown and Cathedral, who travel over the February break and the December winter vacation.

Saskatchewan licenses neither dog walkers nor pet sitters. Regina's Animal Bylaw 2009-44 requires an annual licence and a tag for every dog and cat (sections 6 and 8), and section 12 bans an animal at large, so a dog is on leash outside the Schedule B off-leash parks. The bylaw sets no cap on dogs per dwelling. A home business needs a Residential Business Licence and stays inside 25% of the dwelling's floor area. Pet-care income is self-employment income, reported on form T2125 with your T1 return. GST/HST registration is required once taxable revenue passes the CAD 30,000 small-supplier threshold in four consecutive quarters.

What gets you booked

What Regina owners look for in a cat sitter

Cat owners book on trust more than on price. The profile details below are the ones they ask about.

Comfort with shy cats

Many cats hide from a stranger for the first visit. Owners want to hear that you will sit with the cat, not chase it, and that a hidden cat still gets fed and its box scooped.

Reliability, twice a day

A cat on medication or a diabetic cat needs visits at the same time every day. Say what your schedule can hold in Regina, and mention any medication experience, even with your own cat.

A tidy visit

Litter cleaned properly, nothing left out, doors and windows as you found them, and a message with a photo. Owners come home and look for those signs before they look at anything else.
