Cat Sitting Visits In Your Home
We believe that cats are best off when left in the safety and comfort of their own home. When you are away at work, traveling, or otherwise not at home, Cat Sitting Visits performed by a professional pet sitter can be a perfect cat sitting solution. Our Care Team are detail-oriented, educated cat lovers who are dedicated to providing quality care to your cat and home. We are true partners with our clients in all cat care matters.
Dori Tails provides Cat Sitting Visits in your home 7 days a week, and you can choose 25-minute visits or 50-minute visits. Do you need Overnight Care? We can do that too.
You can customize visits based on the needs of your cat. Please keep in mind that when there are a large number of cat care tasks and or/when the tasks are more complicated, a longer visit may be needed. We will talk about your needs in our Free Video Consultation, and we are fully committed to accommodating your special requests and ensuring the comfort and contentment of your cat.
