Looking for top-rated cat hotels in Taichung’s Beitun District? Fluv has compiled 9 quality cage-free cat hotels for 2025, with detailed comparisons of accommodation environments, services, and pricing. We also recommend 3 local professional cat sitters and in-home pet boarding options to help you arrange the most stress-free stay and care for your cat.
What is a pet sitter?
A pet sitter is someone who loves animals and has experience caring for dogs and cats, and who looks after your pets in your own home. This model is already very popular in Western countries — companies like Rover and PetBacker help pet owners find nearby sitters with availability to come to their home. In Taiwan, Fluv offers a similar pet sitter matching service. Compared to traditional pet hotels, pet sitter matching is a more suitable pet care option for modern pet owners — sitters come to you, saving you drop-off and pick-up time, and your pet stays in a familiar environment where anxiety is less likely.
Many pet owners highly recommend pet sitter care services. Fluv is Taiwan’s largest pet sitter platform.
Beyond the pet hotel — a brand-new cage-free boarding option! Dream home in Taipei, in-home pet boarding that’s cage-free and one-on-one for under NT$1,000?!
When pet owners go on a trip, there’s a whole new option beyond the pet hotel! Today we’re unboxing cage-free, one-on-one in-home pet boarding — where your pet gets to stay just as comfortably and freely as they would at home. Highly recommended for all pet owners!
Which pets are a good fit for pet sitter services?
In-home care
The pet sitter comes to the owner’s home to provide care, including feeding, tidying the environment, playtime, and status updates to the owner. You can book a free meet-and-greet visit in advance so the sitter can get familiar with the space and meet your pets for the first time.
Best for cats that don’t like going out or dogs with limited mobility. If you have multiple pets at home, in-home care is also a great value option that lets your pets stay active in their familiar environment.
Pet boarding and day care
Your pet stays at the sitter’s home and receives one-on-one care, with the freedom to roam around a home environment. Services include feeding, care, playtime, and owner updates — with cage-free, personalised service as the hallmark.
Best for sociable dogs with higher activity levels.
Long-term home care
A new option for owners who are away for an extended period and don’t want their pet caged in a pet hotel. A pet sitter takes over to maintain your pet’s daily routine — even when you’re not home, there’s a professional sitter to take your pet out for walks.
Best for owners with long-term travel needs.
Dog walking service
When an owner works late or has something come up unexpectedly and can’t get home, but the dog needs to go outside, a pet sitter can step in for a walk. Even when you’re not around, a professional sitter can take your pet out to play and stretch their legs.
Best for medium to large, higher-energy dogs such as Huskies, mixed breeds, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, and similar breeds.
Free meet-and-greet visit
We offer a reassuring meet-and-greet visit service. Before officially booking, you can schedule a free visit to get to know the sitter, see the environment, and let them interact with your pet to build a connection. Once you’re happy, you can go ahead and make a formal booking.
Regardless of which service you choose, the pet sitter will send photos back to the owner so you can see your pet even while you’re away — both reassuring and heartwarming!

Choosing between a pet hotel and a pet sitter
Both pet hotels and pet sitters are great options for pet care — the right choice depends on your specific needs and situation.
If you need to be away from home for an extended period, or want your pet to experience independent living in an outside environment, a pet hotel or in-home pet boarding could be a great fit. At a pet hotel, your pet receives professional care and management, gets to interact with other dogs, and can socialise and play. With in-home pet boarding, your pet gets one-on-one, cage-free, personalised care. Both options include regular updates for the owner, so you can travel with peace of mind.
If you only need to step out briefly, or your pet doesn’t adapt well to new environments, an in-home pet sitter is likely the better choice. A pet sitter comes to your home to care for your pet — reducing the stress that comes from environmental changes and letting your pet receive personalised care in familiar surroundings.
Pet sitter and pet hotel — frequently asked questions
1. How does an in-home pet sitter access your home when you’re not there?
Through a meet-and-greet visit in advance, the sitter can come to your home for a first meeting with your pet, get familiar with the care environment, and learn where food bowls, litter boxes, and cleaning supplies are kept — while also getting to know your pet’s personality. During the visit, you can discuss how to hand over keys with the sitter; many owners arrange this through their building’s front desk. You can also verify the sitter’s identity through the platform, set up a home camera, and check the sitter’s reviews for added peace of mind.
2. How are pet sitters screened? Can I trust a stranger?
All pet sitters on the Fluv platform are animal lovers with pet ownership or volunteer experience who have gone through identity verification and training courses before becoming sitters. Owners can also read sitter ratings and reviews through Fluv’s review system to find a sitter they can trust with confidence.
3. Who is responsible if my pet gets injured?
Every booking on the pet sitter platform includes insurance coverage. If an accident occurs during care, the pet sitter is responsible for compensation, with a deductible of NT$5,000. For amounts exceeding the deductible, Cathay Century Insurance provides additional medical coverage of up to NT$15,000.
4. My pet is very shy around strangers — is a pet sitter or pet hotel still suitable?
If your pet is more reserved or takes time to warm up, you can arrange a meet-and-greet visit in advance so your pet can have that first interaction with the sitter and start building trust. If there are still concerns, the sitter and owner can discuss together whether the arrangement is a good fit before committing.
If your pet is aggressive, a pet sitter service may not be suitable — this protects both the sitter and prevents your pet from getting overly stressed or having an accident.
5. My pet needs medication or wound care — can a pet sitter help?
For any special needs, book a pet sitter who has listed medical care skills in their profile. You can also communicate your requirements when booking and make sure to clearly explain all medical care details to the sitter or pet hotel.
6. When would you need pet boarding, a pet hotel, or a pet sitter?
As a pet owner — whether you have a cat or a dog — there will always be times when you need to travel and can’t bring your pet along.
7. Which type of pet boarding is best for your pet?
If you’re not lucky enough to have friends or family nearby who can look after your pet for a few days (or weeks), you may need to book pet accommodation — so what kind of price range are we talking? The answer isn’t straightforward. Based on research, pet boarding prices can range from NT$500 to NT$3,000 depending on location, pet size, and services included. As a responsible pet owner, it’s your job to figure out which type of boarding or care arrangement is the best fit for your cat or dog.
8. How much do pet hotels, pet boarding, and pet sitters cost?
Several key factors affect the price of pet boarding:
The first is your location. If you live in a big city or tourist area, higher demand means pet hotels and boarding options near you will tend to cost more. Even in smaller towns or rural areas, prices can still be high — with fewer options available, providers face less competition and can maintain higher prices.
Another factor is the size of your pet. Cats are fairly uniform in size, but dogs vary significantly, and larger medium to large dogs will generally cost more.
But the most important factor is the type of boarding you choose. There are many different options available, and it really comes down to your pet’s needs and how much you’re willing to budget for their care.
[Closing thoughts]
The above is a roundup of pet hotels and pet sitters in the area — we hope it’s helpful for pet owners in the region. When choosing between a pet hotel or a pet sitter, take the time to consider your own needs and situation, ask detailed questions about services and what to look out for, try a meet-and-greet or day care session, and make sure your pet gets the best possible care.
