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.

    We've had Kira look after our 2 Chow Chows since they were puppies - now 4 and 5 - and she's absolutely fantastic with them. Our Chows are very selective with who they like, allow to feed/cuddle/play with and Kira is one of their favourite humans. She's brilliant at taking cues from them, dotes on t...

    Kira was absolutely brilliant with our dog! From the moment we met her, she was friendly, caring and really trustworthy.

    I would 100% trust Kira to look after my pets. She’s really caring, reliable and responsible and genuinely loves dogs. I know she’d treat anyone’s dog like her own and make sure they were happy and well looked after. I’d definitely recommend her! 🥰🐾

    Alexa and John were both incredibly kind and considerate, and took amazing care of Arthur! Arthur can be a super energetic dog and he was really calm and happy at the end of the day, so I know he had a fantastic time with them both. They also had great communication and updates throughout. I can't r...
