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 Public Liability Insurance, 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 does the Mad Paws Insurance cover?
At Mad Paws, the safety of our pet owners, pet sitters and pets is of the utmost importance. We want our pet sitters to be able to provide a fun, and safe service, but not have to foot the bill for an insurance premium to helping out their local community members! This is why we, at Mad Paws, have organised and arranged a Public Liability insurance policy which provides Insurance for all pet sitting services booked in through the Mad Paws website.
The insurance policy 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;
- Transportation.
Mad Paws offers free Public Liability insurance (not to be confused with the usual illness cover that most pet owners already have for their pets). Public liability covers 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 Insurance case, and this is payable by the pet sitter. For full details on our Insurance cover, click here.If you believe that any incident is covered under the Insurance Services, 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!
