What sitters offer

Every type of cat care. Nothing else.

Drop-in visits

30 or 60 minute visits for feeding, cuddles, and litter—with updates so you know they're happy.

Home cat sitting

Your sitter stays overnight in your home. Your cat keeps their territory and routine without the stress of a new place.

Cat boarding

A calm, cat-friendly home environment looked after by someone who actually loves cats, not a busy cattery.

How it works

Simple for sitters. Simple for owners.

  2. 2
    We verify your history

    A human reviews your submission and grants your Purr-Port Verified badge. No automated approval — your years of work deserve a proper look.

Why Purrtacular

A cats-only place.Built for whiskers, not walks.

We built the platform we needed ourselves: no dog-app fees, no starting your reputation from zero, and a community that actually understands cats.

Made for cat people

Every sitter and owner here got into this because they love cats. Not an add-on to a dog platform — cats are the whole point.

Fair to your pocket

Household-first pricing, no forced per-cat fees, and a flat booking fee. The platform takes one cut, not two.

Your reputation, rescued

Years of five-star reviews shouldn't vanish because a platform changed hands. Purr-Port brings your history with you.

FAQ

Questions we’re already getting.

Is Purrtacular live yet?

Not yet. We are in pre-launch, building the platform and growing the waitlist. Joining now gets you founding member status — early access, a founding sitter badge, and direct input into what we build.

Can I bring my Cat in a Flat reviews?

Yes — that is what Purr-Port is for. Submit your CiaF profile link, screenshots, or owner references and we will verify and carry your history forward. Your years of five-star reviews should not disappear because a platform changed hands.

Will there be per-cat fees?

No per-cat fees by default. Purrtacular uses household-first pricing. Sitters can optionally note that they charge differently for very large households, but no hidden per-cat surcharge gets added at checkout.

How much does it cost to join?

Free for both sitters and owners. Sitters pay a 12% commission on completed bookings only. Owners pay a £2.50 flat booking fee. No joining fee, no subscription, no upfront payment.

Where are you launching first?

UK-first. We are building local sitter coverage by region based on waitlist demand — which is why we ask owners for their area at sign-up. The areas with the most demand open first.

How are sitters verified?

Before any bookings open: identity verification, background checks, and Purr-Port history review. All human-reviewed, not automated. See our Trust & Safety page for the full commitment.
