Feline-only cat sitting for downtown towers, Pearl lofts, Nob Hill apartments, and central Portland homes.
Urban cat sitting depends on reliable building access, parking, concierge and elevator rules, key and fob management, loading zones, unit identification, and backup entry.

Test every layer between the street and the cat.
A working unit key is not enough if the sitter cannot enter the garage, building, elevator, floor, hallway, or locked package area. Building staff may also require the sitter’s name or limit after-hours entry.
Vertical living changes escape, window, balcony, and appliance risks.
Confirm screens, balconies, hallways, trash chutes, elevators, exterior doors, mechanical rooms, common spaces, and where the cat goes when maintenance or building alarms occur.
Hallway and elevator escape
Use a deliberate entry sequence and identify cats who rush doors, follow people, or hide near the unit entrance.
Windows and balconies
Confirm screens, door locks, balcony rules, ventilation, and whether windows must remain closed during the care period.
Building events
Provide instructions for fire alarms, water shutdowns, maintenance entry, building notifications, and temporary access changes.
Include building, parking, concierge, and fob information with the request.
The ZIP estimator includes the published parking adjustment and routes new or existing clients into the portal.
