Cat Boarding
If you’re a Cat Owner in Australia, you know an inexorable truth: each cat is unique. Some are comfortable in slick Sydney apartments, while others feel at home in white picket houses in Brisbane. Some like the hustle and bustle of life in inner city Melbourne, with others enjoy a relaxed life in Perth. That’s why, if you’re looking for Cat Boarding, you need an option that meets the unique needs of your kitty.
If you’re going away and need to leave your cat in someone else’s care, Mad Paws offers the perfect choice. Those days of needing to fork out too much money for an impersonal cat hotel or cattery? They’re over, do you hear me? OVER. Now begins the age of the Personalised Cat Boarding Experience.
Through Mad Paws, a vetted and reviewed Cat Sitter will pamper your feline in a cat-friendly abode. What’s more, you can choose a Cat Sitter and home that matches your cat. Are they at their best in a large house with other cats to play with? We have Pet Sitters who fit the bill. Do they need a small, cosy space with no other pets, in which they can nap peacefully? You’ll be able to find those exact conditions too.
Our Cat Minders have been schooled in our Pet Sitter Success program, which gives them the knowledge they need to excel. Thanks to our Mad Paws Accident Cover, they’re also covered in the event of an emergency.
Of course, you don’t want any old chump caring for your kitty, which is why we vet our Cat Sitters. You can also read reviews from other Pet Owners before you book a Cat Sitter, so you can know whether a Cat Boarding space is right for you.
Still not certain? Why not meet the Cat Sitter before you book? That way, you can talk to them, inspect their home, and confirm they get along with your feline.
Don’t let your cat grow bored in your absence. Book with Mad Paws to give them the best in Cat Boarding!

- What other services does Mad Paws offer?
Unlike traditional Pet Minding services such as kennels and veterinary clinics, we offer a wide and unique range of services. This tailored approach will engage your pet and make them feel as loved and happy as they do at home. The services available through Mad Paws are:
- Pet Sitting– Overnight pet care in the pet’s home. The Pet Sitter can House Sit and Pet Sit at the same time.
- Pet Hosting– Overnight care at the Sitter’s home. This is where your pet goes and stay’s at the Pet Sitter’s abode.
- Doggy Day Care– Daytime care for your pet. This can occur either in the pet’s home or the Pet Sitter’s home.
- Dog Walking– A Pet Sitter comes to your home and walk your dog for you. The length of these Dog Walks are flexible depending on the needs of your pet.
- House Visits – A Pet Sitter comes to your home once or twice a day to check on your pet/s and feed them. They can also spend an hour or two with your pet/s as you require.
- Pet Grooming – Done either at your or the Pet Sitter’s home, a pet expert grooms and beautifies your furry friend.
- Dog Training – A Dog Trainer works with your pooch to hone their skills and address any behavioural issues. Like other services, this can be done either at your or the Pet Sitter’s home.
Service rates will vary in price depending on the age and size of the pet, the number of pets, and the length of the stay. Make sure you read all the information on the Sitter’s profile before making a booking. We also strongly recommend completing a Meet & Greet; it will allow you to discuss the details of the booking as well as meet the Pet Sitter prior to the booking.

- What’s included in Mad Paws Accident Cover?
At Mad Paws, the safety of our Pet Sitters, Pet Owners, and their pets is of the utmost importance. We want our Pet Sitters to be able to provide a fun and safe service, but not need to foot a veterinary bill in an emergency. This is why we provide Mad Paws Accident Cover, which protects all Pet Sitting services booked in through the Mad Paws website.
The Mad Paws Accident Cover applies for all services booked through madpaws.com.au. This includes:
- Boarding (Pet Sitting or Pet Hosting);
- House Visits;
- Pet Day Care;
- Dog Training;
- Dog Walking;
- Cat Care;
- Bathing;
- Grooming;
Our free Mad Paws Accident Cover applies to any damage or injury to a third party or their property which is due to negligence of the Pet Sitter whilst the pet is under the Pet Sitter’s care. Please note that there is a $350 deductible for any case, and this is payable by the Pet Sitter. Mad Paws Accident Cover is not to be confused with the usual illness cover that most Pet Owners already have for their pets. For full details on our Accident cover, click here.
If you believe that any incident is covered under Mad Paws Accident Cover, you must provide us with written notice of the incident, along with all material documentation available to you evidencing the foregoing (e.g. invoices and veterinary notes from the initial veterinary examination), no later than seven (7) days after the end date that the Pet Services were provided under the relevant Booking.
For property damage we have a specific Damage guideline in place. To read about our Damage guideline, click here. In addition, we also have a helpful article which explains what to do in case of emergencies: Help, there’s an emergency!
