Cat Sitters in Boston

Your cat stays in their own home, with their own routine

Boston cats live in brownstones, triple-deckers, and South End townhouses with distinctive sun spots, narrow stairs, and bay windows. Removing them from that environment for boarding rarely improves the trip experience. Cat sitting drop-in visits on Petme connect you with verified Boston sitters across Back Bay, South End, Jamaica Plain, Cambridge, and Somerville who come to your home so your cat stays in their own space.

Petme charges Boston cat owners 0% commission. The per-visit rate is the full price. Every booking includes up to $20,000 in vet protection, useful coverage if your cat ever needs Angell Animal Medical Center or VCA South Shore. Cashback compounds with each visit.
