Quick answers to common questions about cat sitting in Manhattan.
Our sitters serve most neighborhoods throughout Manhattan. Coverage can vary by sitter, so if you’re unsure whether your address is included, submit a request and we’ll confirm availability before booking.
Yes. Many of our sitters have experience with senior cats, special routines, and vet-prescribed medications (such as pills and liquids). Your sitter will review all care details in advance to ensure your cat’s needs are handled correctly.
All sitters are hand-selected, background-checked, insured, and bonded. The Comforted Kitty also stands behind every booking with a satisfaction guarantee, so you’re not relying on an unverified individual.
Your sitter follows the emergency plan you instruct in your Time to Pet portal and reviewed at the Meet & Greet, including contacting you and your designated emergency contacts. If needed, they’ll seek veterinary care using your preferred vet or the nearest appropriate clinic.
We recommend booking as soon as you know your dates—especially for holidays or longer trips. Last-minute requests are sometimes possible, but availability varies by sitter and time of year.
