ServiceCited for catteries
SEO and AI search for catteries and cat hotels
Cat owners look for somewhere quiet and cats only, then check the pens, the vaccination rules and whether they can look round before they book. ServiceCited makes sure your website answers each of those in words Google and AI assistants can read.
What your customers ask Google and ChatGPT
- “cats only cattery near me”
- “cattery with heated pens near Cheltenham”
- “can I look round a cattery before I book”
- “cat boarding in Melbourne where two cats can share a pen”
- “cat boarding near Portland with large condos”
ServiceCited checks whether your site gives search engines and AI assistants what they need to answer searches like these with you.
What goes wrong
Where catteries lose customers online
The problems we find most often — and every one of them is fixable.
“Cats only” never said
No barking, no dogs walking past the pens: it's often why owners pick a cattery over kennels. If your homepage doesn't say it in words, an assistant asked for a cats-only cattery has nothing to go on.
“Spacious chalets”, no sizes
Owners compare the sleeping area, the run, the shelves, the heating and whether cats can see each other. A gallery and the word “spacious” give them nothing to compare.
Viewing times only on the phone
Many owners won't book until they've seen the pens, and plenty of catteries only show them at set times so the cats stay settled. If those times aren't written down, owners ring at the wrong moment or give up.
What we check
The checks that matter most
ServiceCited runs 80+ checks on every scan. For catteries, these are the ones that move the needle first.
- Pens described with sizes
Each kind of pen — single, family or deluxe — with its sleeping area and run sizes, heating, shelves and outlook, taken from your own details.
- Vaccination rules as you set them
The vaccinations you ask for, how recent they must be and the proof you accept, written exactly as your policy says. We never add or change a rule.
- Viewings and peak dates
When owners can look round, and how far ahead summer, Easter and Christmas fill up, in your own words.
- Sharing and nightly prices
Whether cats from the same home can share a pen, and your nightly prices for one cat and for two sharing, as you choose to publish them.

FAQ
Questions from catteries
Type to search these questions, or ask anything about getting found on Google and AI.
Should we say we don't take dogs?
Yes, near the top of your homepage and in your page description. Owners search for “cats only” by name, and assistants can only repeat it if your site says it.
Do we have to publish pen sizes?
No, but sizes are hard to judge from photos, and they help owners compare. If you publish them, measure each kind of pen and keep them current. We never guess them.
Owners ask what happens if their cat is unwell while staying. What can the site say?
Describe your own arrangements: which vet practice you use and how you'll contact the owner. Anything about symptoms or treatment is for the vet, so the site doesn't cover it.
Also built for
- Boarding & kennelsMake your licence, vaccination rules, facilities and busy-date booking clear, so owners going away choose you and AI can say why.

- Pet sittersExplain drop-ins, house sits and cat visits, the areas you cover and how you look after keys and homes, so owners going away find you.
