I have found a cat sitter for the weekend the three of us will be away.
First I talked to people I knew, but nobody local either has a cat-sitter, or does that work themselves. Looking for someone bonded/insured got me to the American Kennel Club's website; their search engine found exactly one listing for my zip code. I contacted that person yesterday, and have now made arrangements.
She told me to reach out 10-14 days before we're leaving to arrange for someone to come meet the cats and a get a key to the apartment. I have put a reminder in my calendar. (That timing is because the company has several pet-sitters, and she doesn't know yet which one she'll be sending to our apartment.)
