Sometimes cats require a little extra tender loving care in the overnight hours. As an addition to our individual cat visits you can also request a sitter spend the night with your cat, kind of like your cat having its own "ca-jama party". Very young cats who need help with socialization or who are afraid to be alone would benefit from having an overnight buddy. Older and/or special needs cats who may need regular administration of medication and supervision would also benefit.
Two Overnight Options:
• 10 hours: $70
• 12 hours: $80
