the experience

What a stay really looks like.

From the moment your cat arrives to the moment you pick them up, here's exactly what happens — the meals, the play, the quiet hours, and the daily photos that show you how they're doing.

arrival

Drop-off, calm and unhurried

You arrive at the time on your calendar invitation — anywhere from 9 AM to 9 PM — and we're home and ready.

Some cats explore in five minutes. Others take hours. Both are normal. We're not in a rush, and neither is your cat.

What to bring: your cat's own food (we'll measure out portions), any medication, and — if it helps them settle — a familiar blanket or toy.

the daily rhythm

9 AM, 3 PM, 9 PM — every single day

Meals are scheduled to keep stress low and digestion happy. Between meals, your cat has full run of cage-free, sunny rooms with cat trees, scratch posts, soft bedding, and a rotating cast of fresh toys.

  • Daily brushing and eye cleaning
  • Individual play and catnip time
  • Fresh water at all hours
  • Litter scooped multiple times daily

We're home almost all day, every day. Not popping in. Not stopping by. Actually present.

Photos and videos, every day

You'll get a daily update with photos and short videos — so you can see exactly how your cat is doing without having to ask. Sleeping, eating, playing, sunbathing, whatever they're up to that day.

Multiple reviewers have called this out specifically. We know what it's like to wonder how your cat is doing while you're somewhere else. We don't make you wonder.

Need more contact? Just text us. We're responsive throughout the day during work hours.

Pick-up at your scheduled time

You arrive at the pick-up time on your calendar invitation. We'll send you off with any leftover food, a quick recap of how the stay went, and — if anything came up — honest notes about anything we noticed.

Most cats walk out the door like they've been on a quiet vacation. Some make a beeline for their own home. Some take a few hours to settle back in. All normal.
