The Curious Cat Company provides personalized, in-home cat sitting visits and overnight cat care in Oviedo and Winter Springs, Florida. Each visit is thoughtfully tailored to your cats' individual personalities, routines, and needs, helping them remain comfortable and cared for in the familiar surroundings of home.  ​

Yes! The Curious Cat Company is dedicated exclusively to cats. I do not provide care for dogs or accept bookings in households with dogs. 

I proudly serve cat families in Oviedo and Winter Springs, Florida. My intentionally limited service area allows me to provide dependable, attentive care while maintaining a manageable schedule.

Absolutely! I welcome cats of all ages, from playful kittens to cherished seniors. Care is tailored to each cat's age, temperament, routine, and individual needs.​

Yes! Multi-cat households are welcome and in fact all service rates include up to two cats.  Each additional cat over that would be $5 per visit or overnight stay.

Visits are tailored to your cats' needs and may include:

​

• Fresh food and water

• Litter box cleaning and maintenance

• Playtime, companionship, and enrichment

• Gentle brushing or affection, when welcomed

• Medication administration, when arranged in advance

• Monitoring general well-being and behavior

• Basic home care, such as bringing in mail or adjusting lights

​

Every cat is different, so interactions are always guided by their comfort and preferences.​

I offer 30, 45, and 60 minute visit lengths to accommodate different households and care needs. The appropriate visit length depends on the number of cats, their routines, and the level of attention or assistance they require.

​I recommend twice-daily visits whenever possible to provide consistent feeding, litter care, companionship, and attention throughout the day. A minimum of one visit every 24 hours is required, although kittens, senior cats, and cats with additional care needs may require more frequent visits. We'll discuss the most appropriate schedule based on your cats' individual needs and routines.

Overnight care allows your cats to enjoy the added comfort of having someone present in their home during the evening and overnight hours. Care includes their regular evening and morning routines, companionship, feeding, litter maintenance, and other agreed-upon needs.

No. Overnight care covers the designated overnight period. If your cats need a visit during the day, an additional cat sitting visit can be scheduled separately, subject to availability.

​​​Yes! I provide visit updates so you can feel connected and reassured while you're away. Updates may include photos and notes about your cats' activities, appetite, behavior, and general well-being. 

Simply complete the Contact form on my website. I'll review your inquiry, confirm that your location and care needs fall within my service area, and contact you to discuss the next steps.​​​​​

Yes. A complimentary Meet & Greet is required for all new clients before their first booking. This gives us an opportunity to meet, discuss your cats' routines and needs, review home access and care instructions, and make sure my services are a good fit.

Once you're established as a client, you can submit appointment requests through my secure client portal, powered by Scritches. All requests are personally reviewed and must be approved before they are confirmed.

I recommend reaching out as early as possible, particularly for holidays and extended travel. As a solo provider serving a limited geographic area, availability may be limited during popular travel periods.

Weekend and holiday availability is subject to my schedule. A 15% holiday surcharge applies to services provided on designated holidays.

That's perfectly okay! As a Fear Free Certified Professional, I understand the importance of respecting each cat's comfort level, body language, and personal space. I never force interactions. Some cats enjoy playtime and affection, while others prefer quiet companionship or simply knowing someone is nearby.​​​​​

Medication assistance may be available depending on the medication, your cat's temperament, and the type of administration required. All medication needs must be discussed and approved before services begin. I do not perform veterinary procedures.

Your cat's safety and well-being are always a priority. Before services begin, we'll review emergency contacts, veterinary information, and your authorization for emergency care. If a concerning situation arises, I'll contact you and take appropriate action according to our agreed-upon emergency procedures.

Yes, depending on their individual needs and the level of care required. I'm happy to discuss care for senior cats, cats with mobility limitations, sensory changes, or other special considerations to determine whether I can safely and comfortably meet their needs.

Pricing is based on the type and duration of service, the number of cats, and their individual care requirements. Please visit my Services page for current rates and details.
