A Day as a Cat Sitter

7am first visit — feed, scoop, fresh water, 10-minute play. 8am two more visits in the same neighborhood. 10am drive across town to a 30-minute visit (the cat is on insulin). Noon admin block — invoice, photos in the owner's text thread. 4pm afternoon visits, same houses. 6pm last-of-day visits. 8pm reconcile the day's clients.

That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.

Tools Cat Sitters Already Own

Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

How we put this guide together

We build a cat sitter's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a cat sitter — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
