I'm Rebecca | Cat Sitting in Tucson, AZ

My love for cats stretches back to my childhood, and sometimes I wonder if it isn't genetic because I come from a long line of cat people. Besides growing up around cats and having my own as an adult, I have trained and volunteered at numerous shelters and rescues over the years. Since starting with Meowtel in 2022, I've been fortunate to establish repeat clients, allowing me to build up relationships with some truly wonderful kitties and their humans. I cat sit for my own love of animals, but also in memoriam of my beloved Ming kitty. She was my companion for 15 years before I lost her to cancer. Since then, my living situation has prohibited me from adopting again. I miss having a cat around, most of my life there has always been ...

Learn More About Rebecca

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

I started formally cat sitting in 2022 and have had a variety of clients. There are the shy cats who I hardly see, but will talk to nonetheless. There are the high maintenance kitties with special diets and medications. There are the love bugs who want all the pets. There are the chatty ones who I have great conversations with. I've had a couple with behavioral issues and my experience in shelters has come in handy. I'm also not above doing research when necessary. As much as I know, there's always more for me to learn.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Any time I get to spend with cats is quality time in my book. That said, the most fulfilling part is giving the human clients peace of mind. Whatever has called them away from home, be it personal or business, a happy occasion or not, if I can eliminate the stress that comes with leaving their cat/s behind, then that is the best thing I can give them. I want them to enjoy their time, handle responsibilities, and do whatever it is they need to do without the distraction of worry. I do that by taking the best possible care of the cats in my care, an amazingly fun job, but also one I take very seriously.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Schedule the meet and greet at least a week out. Ask questions and trust your gut. If you aren't completely comfortable, try to find another option. If you do a meet and greet only a couple days before you need a sitter, you may not have time to find an alternative and you may not be able to cancel the reservation without penalty. Give yourself time to make adjustments.

Rebecca went above and beyond taking care of our 3 cats by spending lots of time with them, giving them plenty of attention, pets, playtime, and care! The updates, photos, and videos were thoughtful and we looked forward to each and every one! I highly recommend Rebecca, she has a way with cats and she surpassed expectations on every count, plus communication was quick and responsive!

Rebecca took excellent care of our 3 cats. We loved the photos of our furbabies with timely updates. She went above & beyond, spending time with our kitties, giving them treats, playing with them, and taking wonderful care of them. I highly recommend Rebecca and will contact her again the next time we need a cat sitter!

Rebecca charmed my cat. I expected him to hide, but he came out to play and for pets. he even rested with his back up against her like he does with me. I feel completely comfortable knowing Chomper is happy while I’m gone.

Rebecca is an awesome sitter. I have several special needs kitties and she is extremely patient with my kitties. She has even been able to make friends with my two hyper skittish kitties.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tucson cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

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

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
