Julia G.
We are so grateful for The Comforted Kitty!! Sara took wonderful care of our cats, Bonnie and Crocodile, while we were away for a week. My husband and I were immensely pleased to receive a sweet email report with adorable pictures every day. The best part was coming home to very happy cats and a tidy home!!
Marc G.
The Comforted Kitty was the first cat-sitting service we tried, and we haven’t needed to go anywhere else since…the website is excellent.
Mimi N.
This is such a professional and outstanding catsitting company! They make sure to get all the info from you about your home and your pets before the first visit, and he even asked questions I didn’t think to tell, such as where cleaning supplies were just in case…
Joanna L.
My cats were very well taken care of by Tera. She played with them, pet them and gave them lots of love. The Comforted Kitty is definitely the best cat sitting company I’ve ever used!
Dana F.
Our cat is 18 years old and needs special care and attention and I don’t trust just anyone with that responsibility, let alone letting a complete stranger have access to our home. But Daniel and Poppy stepped up and did an amazing job. They are professional, respectful and completely put us at ease with their understanding, reliability, integrity and careful attention to detail.
Sarah S.
Their online interface makes it easy to schedule, input/update cat-care information, and get emailed daily updates and photos during the sitting. They also offered to take in the mail, water any plants, turn on and off lights, etc…Great sitters allowing for better peace of mind and I’d definitely recommend!
Sara G.
The questions on the initial form go over your kitty’s likes, potential hiding places, vet information, and much more. Before I even met my cat sitter I was impressed!
Wendy L.
Slam-dunk 5 stars for due diligence, responsiveness, professionalism, attentiveness, kitty-care skills, integrity…For reals, add any rave-review adjective here and it would fit The Comforted Kitty.
Shere R.
It was worth every penny to have someone who really cared about our cats and gave them some love & play versus someone who would’ve just come in to feed, clean the litter box and leave. Thank you so much Marion & Daniel!
What Our Cat Sitters Can Do
Daily Visits
Every day of the year, you can count on the Comforted Kitty to be there for you, your cat, and your homefront. Our daily visits include feeding, administering medication, refreshing the water, socialization & small household chores.
We have a minimum of one visit per day, but we can always arrange for more visits if that’s what your furry friend needs. Every day, our cat sitters bring a loving attitude because we believe all cats deserve true respect, care & attention. Our schedules are flexible and we understand that sometimes life will throw you curveballs. We are just a phone call away if you have to stay away for a few more days because your flight was cancelled or you just need more time.
Feeding & Watering
You know it, I know it, we all know it… Anything can happen when your cat is left alone for extended periods of time. You can clean the cat litter, fill their bowls, and even move that piece of china from the place they like jumping on. You can (and should) take all the necessary precautions, but in reality, you know that still something’s just not going to go quite right unless you’re there.
This is why daily visits are so important, especially so when it comes to feeding and watering. Some cats react totally differently when it’s time to face the food bowl alone. Those food and water bowls that fill themselves seem like a good idea until whiskers decide they’re his new arch-nemesis. The only way to know for certain that your cat is getting the nutrition and hydration it needs while you’re gone is by having a cat sitter come during your cat’s regular feeding schedule.
Litter Box Cleaning
Of all the joys that come with owning a cat, cleaning their litter box is not one of them. Especially when you come home after being gone for a few days.
But guess what?
I can almost guarantee that your cat hates using a dirty litter box more than you dislike cleaning it after coming home. I’m guessing that’s why you’re reading this right now? Because you know the importance of regularly cleaning your cat’s litter box. The only problem is, you desperately need some away time! This is where the team at Comforted Kitty can step in with your own cat sitter to do the job while you’re away.
Medication Administration
Some cats just need to be fed and checked on by a cat sitter, while others need a little more TLC. If your cat is on medication, our cat sitters will be happy to administer medication. In fact, we’ll come to your home before you leave to meet your cat, answer your questions, and gather information on how to properly administer the medication. With this time, we’ll also get to know your cat and vice versa so that when we return we’ll already be friendly.
Do you have a shy or elderly cat? No problem. Comforted Kitty sitters meet with clients prior to your trip to learn about your cat’s needs, medications, and personality. This ensures they can provide custom care while you are away. Plus, your cat can meet your sitter while you are present, allowing time for them to warm up.
Socialization & Playtime
We’ll let your cat’s personality and unique needs dictate how we go about socialization and playtime. Because every cat is different, this is one of our favorite parts of cat sitting. I can speak for all of our cat sitters that we get a little excited knowing that we get to comfort cats for a living.
Our specialists can provide activities that will aid your cat’s naturalistic behavior and improve its disposition. Whether it’s some cuddles, playtime, or just being in its presence, we’ll be there with smiles on our faces.
Household Tasks
We also offer household chores like bringing in the trash bin, bringing in the mail, watering small plants & making sure everything is in tip-top shape around your residence. All Comforted Kitty cat sitters use non-branded vehicles because the last thing we want to do is alert any bad doers to your absence. As far as the neighborhood is concerned, it will be business as usual at your home.
Here’s how we can help with household tasks:
- Home Security: Adjusting lights, shades, windows, and other home fixtures and also, assuring that the front door is secured.
- Mail Retrieval: A telltale sign to burglars that nobody’s home is a mailbox stuffed full of mail. We’ll pick up your mail and set it somewhere safe inside your home.
- Plant Watering: We can do minor plant watering to ensure your second pets don’t go dehydrated for long.
- Trash Bin Retrieval: Have a trash can full of trash that needs to go out or come back in from the curb? Don’t worry; you don’t have to plan your vacation around trash day anymore.

First Time Hiring a Cat Sitter?
Why should I use your cat sitting and cat care in-home services? What makes The Comforted Kitty better than my friend, neighbor, other local pet sitting companies, or the tech apps (Wag, Rover, etc.)?
At The Comforted Kitty, LLC, we believe that your cat sitter — the person caring for your cat while you are away on vacation — should be a person who is reliable, responsive, and responsible. But all too often, well-intentioned family, friends, and neighbors (who might seem like an affordable and trustworthy option) actually fall short in these areas. Simply put, they might lack the commitment that comes with a contractual obligation. We bring that to every job—along with our love of your feline furry friends (and babies!).
We take great pride in our professional cat sitting and cat care policies and procedures that allow us to serve as the always-dependable option whenever a client chooses to go on a well-deserved vacation.
For example, we offer a convenient phone app that allows you to receive daily visit updates and pictures of your cat when we visit your home, while also allowing you to communicate directly with your sitter. You can also use the app to request cat sitting services and pay your bill anytime, anywhere.
Secondly, we are passionate about cats—so much so that cats are the only pet we cater to in this business! We don’t care for dogs, birds, horses, lizards, and “also cats.” By exclusively serving cats, it allows us to focus all of our experience on providing nothing but the absolute highest quality in-home cat care available. And as a result, countless returning clients comment to us that their cat was more relaxed — and themselves were more relaxed too — when they returned home, than in the past when they had a friend, family member, neighbor, or dog sitter care for their cat. Our dozens of exceptional five-star reviews on Yelp, Google, and Facebook attest to this!
Finally, unlike the new and trendy dog walking and pet sitting apps that are part of our modern “gig economy”… all of our partner cat-care professionals are background-checked and undergo a very selective application process. Moreover, all of our Bay Area and Las Vegas cat sitters are all bonded and insured. Additionally, you will always get to meet your assigned cat sitter beforehand so that you can be sure they are a good fit for you, and especially, your cat. At The Comforted Kitty cat sitting and in-home cat care, we are all about developing solid and long-lasting relationships with our clients. Such a relationship can only be built on a solid foundation of trust and transparency.
Will I get to meet my sitter beforehand?
Absolutely! In fact, we require an initial consultation meet-and-greet with you as a new client so they can come over to your home, helping to see if they are a good fit for you—and especially your cat. It also is an opportunity for the sitter to familiarize themselves with the entire visit cat care routine, retrieve your house keys, and ask you any questions or concerns they have so that they are totally prepared for the sittings. This meeting has a $15 fee.

Do you really stay for the whole visit length?
I am worried about giving a person access to my home. What happens if your sitter injures my cat or damages my property?
What are the benefits of using a pet sitter or dedicated cat sitter as compared to boarding my pets?
Cats LOVE to stay in their own home. They attach to their space (especially by scent) as though they are “married” to your home. Keeping their usual daily routine intact is paramount to their psychological wellbeing. Don’t believe us? Spend a day observing your cat and you’ll notice they do they same things around the same time of day, EVERY day.
Boarding your cat stresses them out tremendously. They endure unnecessary travel trauma in the dreaded carrier just get to the facility. They are then put into a small cage or “hotel” room where they reside almost the entire day. Sounds cozy, right? The stress triggers at these facilities can manifest anxiety disorders with your cat, such as decreased appetite, diarrhea, obsessive fur grooming, and other behavioral problems. They also are exposed to fleas, worms, and other parasites that other animals at the facility may have. Then, they must use a “rental” litter box that is unrecognizable for them by scent. And when you pick them up, they will be miserable and likely stay that way for the next few hours or longer when back home.
On the other hand, with drop-in cat sitting visits in your home, your cat gets to stay in their familiar, comforting, environment. They can play with their favorite toys, sleep in their favorite bed, and soak up the sun in their favorite sunny window spot. They also get to use their usual litter box—something that is much more important than one would think! The icing on the cake is that they get total cat care that is tailored exactly to their tastes and desires. There is no competing with other foreign cats in the home. You get to meet the person who will be exclusively caring for your cat and they will provide to you daily visit updates with pictures of your cat too. Plus, you get the added benefit of having someone who will be there to keep an eye on your home and property, giving it a lived in appearance and taking care of such things as mail retrieval, plant watering, and adjusting the lights and shades. The bottom line is that you will be able to relax on your vacation, having the peace of mind that your cat is comfortable at home. Best of all, you get to come home to a kitty that is happy and excited to greet you at the door!

Can you administer medication to my cat?
What happens if there is an emergency and my cat requires medical attention?
