Trusted by Palo Alto, CA Cat Owners

Real feedback from Palo Alto clients who trust our sitters to care for their cats at home.

"On my previous vacations, even if I had loved ones drop by to take care of the cats, I would always feel guilty and stressed for my cats. On my last vacation (and any future vacations!), I was truly able to enjoy my time off knowing that my cats were in good hands."
Ashley Y.
Palo Alto, CA
"I know my beloved pets were well taken care of and given loving, attentive care in my absence. 10/10 would recommend Comforted Kitty to everyone, and will absolutely be calling them again!"

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common questions about cat sitting in Palo Alto

Our sitters serve most neighborhoods throughout Palo Alto. 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.
