Why Cardiff cat owners choose in-home sitting
Cardiff is a city of terraced houses and enclosed back gardens — ideal cat territory. Our sitters cover every postcode from CF1 to CF24 and beyond, visiting your home and keeping your cat's routine intact.
Zero territorial disruption
Cats are creatures of habit. Your home is their safe zone. An in-home sitter keeps their world exactly as they left it.
Identity verified
Every UrPetPals sitter is ID-checked before their first booking. You can read verified reviews and check profiles before committing.
Photo updates every visit
Your sitter sends photos at each visit. You'll know your cat is settled, comfortable, and behaving exactly as expected.
Medication management
Many sitters are experienced with tablets, liquid medications, eye drops, and prescription diets. Just mention your cat's needs when posting.
Secure Stripe payments
All payments handled through Stripe. No cash, no awkwardness. Pay securely through the platform.
Less stress on return
Cats who stay home during owner travel consistently show less anxious behaviour on return than those who visited a cattery.
