Drop-in visits in Ottawa
How drop-in visits work in Ottawa
Ottawa drop-in visits suit cats in Centretown and ByWard Market condos and in Glebe, Westboro and Old Ottawa South homes, where a sitter stops in for a short feed, water refresh and litter scoop instead of an overnight stay. Suburban Kanata, Barrhaven and Orleans owners use the same quick check for indoor pets through long workdays and travel. A drop-in visit in Ottawa runs CAD 22 to 38, the sitter keeps up to 90%, and 0% booking fee applies to you.
