A Comfortable Retreat For Your Cat
While dogs are typically accustomed to being handled and exposed to a variety of sights, sounds, and smells outside the home, cats are creatures of habit who rarely venture beyond their familiar surroundings.
At Parker Pet Care, we understand how unsettling it can be for a cat to be in an unfamiliar environment. That’s why we’ve created a calm, secure, and comforting space, designed specifically with felines in mind.
When your cat can’t be at home with you, we strive to be the next best thing: a true home away from home, where your cat can feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.
Our Promise
Compassionate Care That Comforts Cats and Reassures Their Humans.
Clear Communication
We understand how hard it can be to leave your cat in someone else’s care—especially when they can’t tell you how they’re feeling. That’s why we’ve developed thoughtful communication protocols to keep you informed, whether it’s about the comforting routines, unique quirks, or any concerns that arise during their stay.
Our goal is to help you feel connected, respected, and involved as your cat’s trusted guardian. We share meaningful updates, offer our professional insights, and invite your input—so you remain part of your cat’s care, even when you’re apart.
Detailed Monitoring
We maintain thorough records to ensure each cat is eating, drinking, using the litter box, and interacting with our team in a manner consistent with their usual behaviour. This close monitoring allows us to quickly identify any changes in health or demeanour and respond promptly.
By tracking these key indicators, we’re able to provide timely updates and accurate information to veterinary professionals, advocating effectively on behalf of your cat should any concerns arise during their stay.
Delicate Handling
Our routines reflect a deep understanding of natural feline habits. We offer cozy hiding spaces within their accommodations, flat dishes to help prevent whisker fatigue, and a variety of litter box options to suit each cat’s needs. Whether your cat prefers solitude and independence or seeks out affection and interaction, we follow their lead—ensuring they feel safe, understood, and comfortable throughout their stay.
Understanding Feline Instincts and Behaviour
Cats are fascinating and complex animals, uniquely positioned as both predators and prey in the natural world. This dual nature influences how they respond to new environments. Some cats may exhibit shy, withdrawn behaviour, while others may respond with defensiveness or assertiveness.
We recognize and respect these instinctual behaviours. That’s why all feline guests are handled exclusively by our senior staff, who are specially trained in feline body language, behaviour, and stress management. Our team approaches each cat with patience, empathy, and an understanding of their individual needs.
We’ve developed specialized protocols to gently support and nurture every cat as they adjust to their new surroundings. Whether your cat needs time to retreat and observe or requires reassurance and structure, our goal is to help them feel safe, secure, and understood throughout their stay.
Personalized Approach
We understand that cats are sensitive beings who thrive on routine and familiarity. Most cats require 24 to 48 hours, or even longer, to adjust to a new environment, and we are fully prepared to support them during this transition.
We take a gentle, attentive approach to feline care. Our experienced team closely monitors each cat’s eating habits, litter box use, and behaviour to ensure they are settling in comfortably. We recognize that even minor disruptions to a cat’s normal routine can lead to changes in appetite, elimination, and social behaviour.
That’s why we follow a “if it’s working, don’t change it” philosophy. If a cat is doing well with a particular food, routine, or environment, we avoid making any unnecessary adjustments that might cause stress. For instance, if your cat prefers a specific brand or flavour of food, we ensure they receive that consistently throughout their stay.
Our mission is to provide a calm, predictable, and reassuring experience—giving your cat the stability they need to feel at ease while you’re away.
