Why Sittsy gives you peace of mind

Does your pet get nervous when you're away? Cats get stressed when they leave home: with Sittsy your cat stays in its own territory, with its scents and routine, and you verify every visit.

Verified visits: photo, time and location

On every visit the sitter sends photos in the moment, with their time and GPS location. Photos from another day don't count: you know the visit really happened.

Care schedule and max time alone

You set your pet's routine and how long it can stay alone; the sitter sees it and Sittsy helps make sure it's respected. Designed for pets with separation anxiety.

You see the sitter's other pets

On their profile and calendar you see which other pets they have or host on those days. When you book we tell you if your pet will overlap with others, so you can confirm they're a good fit.

Storm

Many dogs are stressed by thunder. Walk between showers, avoid the storm hours and set up a quiet corner at home for them.

Rain

Shorter walks and a raincoat if your dog tolerates it. Dry paws and coat well on return to avoid colds and fungus.

Drizzle

Showers possible. Make the most of the clear spells to walk and bring a towel to dry them on the way back.

Ideal

A perfect day for dogs: make the most of it with a long walk, play at the park or some socializing.

    When we were neighbors, Carm was always reliable and helpful with our two cats Buddy & Andie. Carm has a helper who was able to trim Buddy's nails when no one else could get him to relax enough to try. Carm is great at cleaning the litter box too!
