Cat sitter costs in New Zealand range from $15-40 per visit, with professional services averaging $20-30 for 30-minute visits. Understanding pricing factors like location, visit length, and service quality helps you find reliable cat care that provides genuine value for your feline friend’s wellbeing and your peace of mind.
With most Christchurch catteries fully booked by October for Christmas 2025, professional in-home cat sitting offers reliable holiday care when traditional options aren’t available.
