Cat Sitters in Toronto
Trusted cat sitters in Toronto for drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight stays.
Cat Sitters in Toronto
Cat sitters in Toronto understand that most cats are happiest in their own home, on their own schedule, with their own bowls and resting spots. A vetted sitter in neighborhoods like Downtown, The Beaches, and High Park can drop in once or twice a day to handle feeding, fresh water, litter, and a calm bit of playtime, or stay overnight in your home so a shy cat or a multi-cat household has consistent company while you travel. Every Hello Marshy sitter passes identity verification and a Canadian criminal record check before listing.
Profiles across Leslieville, Riverdale, and Yorkville make it clear which sitters list cats among the species they care for, whether they are comfortable with medications, syringe feeding, or insulin schedules, and whether they offer overnight house sitting in addition to drop-ins. Many Toronto cat parents build out a primary sitter and a backup so they always have coverage during last-minute trips, vet emergencies, or longer holiday windows.
Why Toronto pet parents choose Hello Marshy
Toronto apartments and condo towers in The Beaches and High Park often have concierge, fob, or intercom entry that sitters need to navigate, so experienced cat sitters ask for building instructions, parking notes, and preferred entry times before the first visit. In quieter residential areas like Leslieville, drop-ins flex more easily around the cat's natural routine. Cats can be sensitive to schedule changes, so most Toronto sitters lock in a consistent visit window once they meet the household.
Cat-only households generally do not need outdoor walks, but indoor enrichment, litter routine, and quiet observation time still matter. Sitters in Toronto who specialize in cats often factor Toronto Transit Commission commute time into their visit windows so they can hold a consistent arrival time even when client buildings are spread across neighborhoods, and many send a short photo or video update at each visit so you can see the cat eating, drinking, or relaxing rather than guess from a text message. Hello Marshy chat keeps those updates and any care notes in one place for the duration of the booking.
Cat Sitter pricing in Toronto
Cat sitting rates in Toronto depend on visit count, visit length, and any extras like medication or multi-cat handling. Most sitters price per visit for drop-ins and per night for overnight stays. The rates shown are set by each sitter, and the checkout screen lists the rate, applicable additional-cat charge, and any weekend or holiday rate the sitter applies. Hello Marshy charges pet parents 0% booking and payment-processing fees, so no mandatory platform fee is added at checkout.
Frequently asked questions
Are sitters on Hello Marshy verified?
Yes. Every sitter must complete identity verification through a trusted third-party verification provider before their profile can appear in search or accept bookings.
Sitters on a paid Monthly or Yearly plan also complete a Canadian criminal record check through Certn, our background-check partner.
Pet parents can leave a public review only after completing a booking through Hello Marshy, so every review comes from a real booking.
How do I find a sitter?
Enter your city and the type of care you need on the Hello Marshy homepage or search page. You can then browse nearby sitters and view photos, a short bio, the kinds of pets they care for, and starting rates for each service.
You can narrow your search by distance, service, price, pet type, and availability. When a sitter looks like a good fit, open their profile to read reviews, check their cancellation policy, and see what services they offer.
If you want to learn more, you can send a message before booking to ask questions, share your pet’s routine, or see if it feels like the right match. There is no cost or commitment to reach out. You only pay once a booking is confirmed through the platform.
Can I meet the sitter before booking?
Yes. We always recommend a meet and greet when booking with a sitter for the first time. It is a good opportunity to go over your pet’s routine, feeding, medication, behaviour, and any other important care details before the booking begins. Many Hello Marshy sitters offer meet and greets, often at no extra cost, depending on the service.
If it does not feel like the right fit, you can continue your search and message another sitter. You only pay once a booking is confirmed.
