Find a loving, insured cat sitter near you. Our cat sitters offer a drop-in or house sitting service from £8/visit. All cat sitters are vetted by CatInAFlat.

Cat in a Flat connects cat owners with trusted and insured cat loving sitters in their area. Our mission is to help cats stay in the comfort of their own homes while the owner is away.

Cat sitters get to spend time with furry friends and not have to worry about pet bills or long term care, and best of all they get paid to do it!

As a cat I do not believe I need a sitter, however this solution seems better than others my human owners have explored to date. Thank you for making the world more cat friendly.

I am Kathrin Burckhardt co-founder of Cat in a Flat. Together with, Julie Barnes, we had the idea a few years ago to start a Cat Sitting Community when discussing our respective cat-related holiday quandaries while still working as a creative team for London-based agencies. We know just too well how painful it can be finding a perfect sitter for your cat (sorry, your baby). You're quickly running out of thank-you gifts for friends and neighbours, but you really want someone you can trust.... That's why we set up this community to socialise and breathe some life into the traditional pet sitting industry with the mission to help cats stay in the comfort of their own homes by connecting cat owners with trusted, local, cat-loving sitters Each sitter can define their own price and offer house visits or/and overnight stays. Most sitters have been, or still are, cat owners themselves and know just too well, what it means being away from your little fur baby. So finally, cat owners in the UK, Dublin, Amsterdam and Germany can rely on a huge cat-loving community to meet their needs as cat owners with no more stressful trips to the cattery Help us make the world a better place – for cats and humans =^.^=

@ksburckhardt Hey there! As a Crowdcube employee, and an investor in CIAF, it's great to see you trending on product hunt. Well done!

@ksburckhardt So so awesome. I'm a huge cat lover, and would love to housesit awesome cats around the globe. Been working on a home sharing / hospitality exchange product for a couple years, and would love to chat further sometime.

We would really struggle without CIAF. Thank you so much for this wonderful idea & service!

Pros:

Don't have to bring our cats to a cattery. Found an amazing member of the community who loves looking after our cats.

Cons:

None

Thanks, Andy, for the great feedback, very happy to hear that =^.^=

Awful experience with sitter Sini Manner through Cat in a Flat. Despite positive reviews.I booked Sini Manner via Cat In a Flat for one week 10/9 to 17/9. At the beginning of the sitting my rescue cat went missing. This is extremely out of character for my cat and extremely worrying. Sini Manner could not have cared less and appeared extremely irritated at my concerns to the point of anger. Rather than spending time looking for my lost cat Sini Manner went out to dinner, walks, shopping etc and ignored my messages. In fact she was more concerned with the fact that two light bulbs had blown and claimed that she couldn’t see and had to go and buy new ones. (I had left money for emergencies - which she took when she left!) Sini was very angry about this (something beyond my control) Requesting updates and photos met with a shocked face! Messages ignored and If I asked at where my cat was she just stated “hiding” and when I asked in the house the reply was “I suppose so” Very poor communication & it turned out my cat had hid in the cupboard much of the week because He was so nervous of Sini Manner. Upon returning home the house was in a shocking state. A box of frozen food that had been delivered had been dumped on my sofa, one of my canvas pictures had been thrown down the back of my radiator, scrunched up pieces of kitchen roll everywhere, dirty cat litter dumped in a bag on my carpet, dirty cat litter all over my carpet, cats dish clearly not washed, water bowls not filled or changed all week, boxes of cat food missing, dirty cat litter thrown in my recycling bin, garlic and oats all over my kitchen floor, washing up bowl on the kitchen floor, marks on my ceiling, garden table broken and left out and more gas and electricity used than I use in a month. To top it off Sini Manner left an angry note blaming me for my cats disappearance, angry about blown lightbulbs and is refusing to return my keys. Avoid Cat in a Flat and Sini Manner at all costs.
