Dont Pack the Cat (take 2)
Question: WHENS THE BEST TIME TO BOOK MY CATSITTER?
Answer: AS SOON AS YOU BOOK YOUR HOLIDAY!
Back In 2020, we blogged about planning holidays as we emerged from lockdowns... Oooh, it feels like a lifetime ago—and yet, just like yesterday! Fast forward five years, and here we are in 2025. Spring is springing, our diary is busier than ever, and what better time to remind everyone: book your cat sitter when you book your holiday!
Why? Because just like flights and hotels, cat sitting slots fill up fast—especially during peak travel times like school holidays, Christmas, Easter, and bank holiday weekends.
Don’t wait until a week or two before you leave—we may be fully booked by then.
Book early to avoid disappointment and to make sure your cat gets the care they deserve.
We understand that life can be spontaneous—that’s why we do accept last-minute bookings when we can—but we always recommend planning ahead
