Cat Sitting
Snuggle Bug Cat Care provides professional in-home cat sitting in Greensboro and Jamestown so your cats can stay safe, comfortable, and cared for at home.
Our visits aim to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in your cats by following Fear Free practices. The result is a happier, more relaxed environment for your cat and peace of mind for you.
Why Cats Do Better at Home Than Boarding
Cats are creatures of habit and feel safest in familiar surroundings. Staying at home allows your cat to keep their normal routine while avoiding many of the stressors that can come with boarding.
Benefits of in-home cat sitting include:
-
Familiar sights, sounds, and scents
-
Less disruption to feeding and litter box habits
-
One-on-one attention during each visit
-
Reduced stress from travel and unfamiliar environments
-
Comfort of staying in their own territory
Why Greensboro Cat Parents Choose Snuggle Bug
We know inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your cats is a big decision. We take that responsibility seriously.
Clients choose Snuggle Bug Cat Care because we provide:
-
Reliable, professional service
-
Specialized cat care from experienced sitters
-
Consistent communication and updates
-
Respect for your home and privacy
-
Compassionate care tailored to each cat’s personality
Our cat sitting visits can be booked anytime you need them, making these a great fit for the occasional traveler who just wants reliable, comforting care while they’re away. Simple, flexible, and easy to schedule whenever life calls you out of town. Offered Mornings (6-10 am), Middays (10 am-3 pm), and Evenings (3-7 pm).
A Meet & Greet is required for all new clients.
Initial Meet & Greet
The initial Meet & Greet is a 30 minute visit which allows us to meet you and your cats. During this time, we’ll conduct a home tour and go over general reminders and expectations. As a no-obligation meeting, there’s absolutely no pressure if either party decides not to move forward.
40 minutes
At Snuggle Bug, we don't believe in short visits. Every cat deserves longer visits to set the pace and move at the speed they're comfortable. These visits are a good option for most cats. They give us time to take care of their physical needs and also work on trust-building, enrichment, and bonding. *Maximum 4 cat household.
60 Minutes
Hour-long visits aren't just a great option for multi-cat households. They're also perfect for:
-
Senior cats needing additional care
-
Social cats
-
Cats prone to loneliness
-
High-energy, playful cats
-
Shy cats
If your cats fit these descriptions, an hour-long visit might be the way to go.
Part of cat care includes the dreaded litter box. If your calendar doesn't include monthly deep cleans, let us handle it for you! These extended visits are a great way to cross off two tasks at once: an enriching cat sitting visit plus a deep clean of up to three traditional litter boxes. *No litter robots or other automatic litter boxes. We need an outdoor space and access to a water hose.
Insulin shot fee
Households with a diabetic cat are charged $5 extra per diabetic cat, per visit to account for the time-sensitive nature of insulin shots and the impact it has on our scheduling flexibility.
“Our lives have changed because we never worry about going on vacation”
“It was stressful knowing if we wanted to go away for a trip our cats wouldn’t be taken care of like they were used to. Our previous cat sitters recommended Snuggle Bug when they were no longer able to take care of our cats. When we first became clients, we had an older cat who needed insulin injections twice a day. Not all pet sitters will give medication to animals they watch so this made us feel comfortable that Stinky would be taken care of and we didn’t have to board him at the vets. Our lives have changed because we never worry about going on vacation since we know our cats are in good hands and being taken care of. Our two cats love both Jules and Robert and are always spoiled rotten when they’re cat sitting. The cats now want us to turn on cat tv every day because that is something Snuggle Bug does when visiting. 😆”

Frequently Asked Questions about Cat Sitting in Greensboro, NC
Why choose a professional cat sitter instead of asking a friend? A professional cat sitter provides reliable, consistent care focused on your cat’s well-being. We follow your instructions closely, monitor for concerns, and send updates so you can travel with more peace of mind. Many cat parents find it easier knowing their cat is cared for by a trusted local business.
Is in-home cat sitting better than boarding for cats? For many cats, yes. Cats are creatures of habit and often feel most comfortable in their own home. In-home cat sitting helps your cat keep their normal routine, stay in a familiar environment, and avoid the stress that can come with travel or unfamiliar animals.
How do I know if my cat needs daily visits while I’m away? Every cat needs daily visits while you’re away. In fact, daily visits are part of our basic standard of care, and we do not accept every other day visit requests. Some cats may benefit from extended visits or even twice-daily visits depending on age, health needs, medication schedules, or personality.
Do you send updates and photos during visits? Yes, we do. After visits, we send updates so you know how your cat is doing. Many clients especially love receiving photos and little notes while they’re away.
Do you work with shy, anxious, or hiding cats? Absolutely! We understand that every cat is different. Some cats warm up quickly, while others need extra time and patience. We have a "no-force" approach to interaction. We let shy cats dictate how their visits will go. If they prefer to hide, that's fine. We'll do our best to get eyes on them but we let them set the pace. We've found that this approach helps cats feel calmer and more relaxed which, in turn, encourages them to come out and socialize.
What areas do you serve around Greensboro? We proudly serve Greensboro, NC and Jamestown, NC. If you’re unsure whether you’re in our service area, visit our Service Area Map or just reach out and we’ll be happy to let you know.

"We Love The Snuggle Sesh!"
“Our life before Snuggle Bug was stressful. It was hard to go on vacation or even a date night because we could not find caring, reliable people to care for our pets. Since joining the Snuggle Bug family, our life has improved immensely! We love the Snuggle Sesh! We are able to go on date nights and vacation without guilt or worry. Our cats are in the best hands getting playtime, snuggles, pets, and love. Whenever we get home, they act like we have only been gone a few hours. It is something we have never experienced with other pet sitters. This service is absolutely the best. “
Elizabeth & Peter, Max & Dakota's parents
