Cat Sitting in Phoenix, AZ

In my 29 years of life, there has been only 9 short months in which I did not live with a cat. Let's just say that will never happen again!

In my 29 years of life, there has been only 9 short months in which I did not live with a cat. Let's just say that will never happen again! In addition to spoiling two cats of my own, I have been pet sitting for 3 years and have loved the exposure to so many furry friends. My priority is to maintain the happy and healthy structure your cat is adapted to, while putting your mind at ease when you are away. I don't mind going the extra mile, from spending additional time building trust with your cat to meticulously working on the best photo I can get to send to you! Anything you or your cat needs, I am happy to oblige!

Learn More About Ryan

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have significant experience with cat sitting over the last 3 years. This ranges from mostly outdoor cats who come running when I arrive to feed them to senior cats who require oral medications and defensive cats who build trust slowly over time. It has been so rewarding and I am very happy I got into this industry.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do! I have two cats- Nala (8) and Rowan (3). Nala is a calico lap cat who loves a good meal and sleeping beside me. Rowan is an orange cat who exhibits classic orange cat energy- she loves playing and exploring the back yard (under close supervision).

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I like to begin every new cat sitting relationship with a meet and greet. I like to put my clients' mind at ease by getting to know me in person, to familiarize their cat with my smell, and for my own purposes get the lay of the land and gain an understanding of each specific cats' personality and needs.

  • Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Phoenix cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with your sitter before you leave.

Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
