We have three rescued cats--one boy and two girls--and they are extremely shy, especially the girls. Their instinct is to run and hide whenever they hear someone at the door. We always worried about leaving them, not knowing if they would come out to eat. It made traveling very stressful. This was our second time with Selma (the first was a 5-day trial), and we left for 18 days. Honestly, we never imagined this would happen--our cats gradually came out to see her and even finished their food before she left. Our boy, Wally, even welcomed her at the door. Selma made the impossible possible. Thanks to her patience and deep understanding of cats, we now feel free to travel with peace of mind. We highly recommend Selma as a cat nanny. Your pets will be safe, happy, and well cared for. Jessie and Kevin read more

I've been dealing with Cat Nanny for several years. Marta and Anke always respond quickly to requests, and we can go away knowing our kitty is being cared for properly and lovingly, including meds and nail clipping when necessary. We trust them 100%. Anke always emails photos of our cat from each visit, which is really nice - my husband refers to these as "proof of life" photos :-) . If there is one thing I will miss when we move away, it's Cat Nanny. read more

The Cat Nanny - Photo by Anke of our cat in the garden. - Pet Sitting Near Me

My husband and I had to go back to the States for the holidays, we didn't have anyone to take care of our cats and we were very nervous too place them into a cat hotel. Not only is it more expensive, but our cats are very particular and have never stayed anywhere that is not our house. We contacted cat nanny and they were very understanding of how nervous we where about leaving our cats with someone new. Milly came over two weeks before we left to get to know the cats and to get details about feeding times etc. She came everyday for a full week in the mornings, sent us pictures and emails daily. We came home and our cats were well. read more

The entire experience with the Cat Nanny was excellent. Bozena was extremely professional, took notes when she came to introduce herself to us and our two cats, and followed instructions to the letter. She watered plants, took in our mail, sent us emails and pics of our fur kids and made sure that we knew they were safe and happy. When we got home she'd cleaned all the cat bowels and the kitchen was spotless. The litter box was tidy and even around it was swept and clean. We are very pleased and would recommend her to anyone. Even my shy cat (who normally hides under the bed) came out and greeted her. The service is not expensive and if you need them to come more than 1 x per day, they will accomodate. We will use your services, again and it made our vacation all the better to not have to worry! read more

The Cat Nanny is a wonderful cat sitting service. We had never used a cat sitter before as our girls are still kittens so we were unsure of how it would go. Cat Nanny was able to fit us in last minute during the holidays - thank you for being so accommodating. Our sitter was Deb B. and she was experienced, kind, responsible, on time, professional and loving to our kittens. We had a consultation and meet up before we left which really left us with confidence and comfort that our girls would be in wonderful hands. Even having one kitten with a cone still on to a previous injury and even having a little poop incident, we were able to have our holiday away without worries and with trust in Deb that she would take care of it all, and she did. Thank you Deb and thank you Cat Nanny! We will definitely be in contact again next time we need to leave our baby girls. read more

The Cat Nanny - Pet Sitting Near Me

My sitter "Emma" goes the extra to play with my kitty. She is amazing, knows so much about cats, and gives me peace of mind. The pictures she sends me are of her interacting with a kooky playful kitty, clearly not stressed. I have used other professional cat sitters and the experience was not the same. So grateful for her. read more

We needed to leave home for the holidays and are new to the area so we have no friends or family to help us out. I called the cat nanny, filled out some simple paperwork, and made an appointment to meet with our sitter Milly. Milly stopped by a couple weeks prior to our trip, went over the cats schedule and got a copy of the keys. We were honestly a bit nervous about having strangers sit our babies but we were reassured by millys visit. Milly sent us numerous email and text updates while we were away which gave us piece of mind. I would recommend The Cat Nannys service to anyone. read more

Wow - I couldn't be more impressed with this company! This is my first time hiring a catsitting service and I'm so happy with The Cat Nanny. Marta was extremely prompt with all of her replies, and Anke who came to care for my cat was absolutely wonderful. In fact, I'm pretty sure my house was cleaner when I came home! Anke sent wonderful updates/photos twice a day which meant so much. I could see in the photos that my cat had a wonderful time with Anke. Josephine almost looked disappointed when she saw it was me who was home and not Anke! I'm emailing Marta right now with all of my future bookings! Christina read more

I've had Anke as cat nanny to our kitty for multiple times now and am always impressed by how prompt and professional she is. Marta heads the operation and she is very responsive when you email her about date availability. Anke also is very good with email and shows up promptly to pick up keys and give them back as well. She has dropped them off a number of times too since she was cat-sitting in a neighboring apt. I think it's their protocol to come over and chat with you to get to know your schedule with your cat and where everything is like food and kitty litter. They have you fill out a couple forms including feeding habits and how much to feed your kitty so there is as little disturbance in their routine as needed! Anke also emails me photos of my kitty along with a brief update so I won't have to worry when I'm on vacation about how she is doing. Whenever I come back from my trips, I can tell Anke has washed the kitty dishes and kept the kitty litter clean. She even vacuums so there is no kitty litter crumbs left behind. I would definitely recommend Anke if you live in the Burnaby area. :) read more
