Learn More About Jason
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
Over 7 years in PROFESSIONAL cat-specific shelters and kennels and lifetime of learning about felines. Officially certified as Fear Free by the Fear Free Organization. I have provided care both in and out of home, including hundreds of cats with unique dietary and medical requirements.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Nothing on earth makes me happier than spending time with cats of any type. Building trust with aggressive or shy cats in deeply rewarding. Loving on friendly cats is the best part of any day. Taking care of the sick or disabled kitties and showing them how much they are loved is the best feeling on the planet. I feel it takes the right person to take the time to allow a cat to tell ME who THEY are, and not to impose what I want on them.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I currently have two littermates adopted from Happy Cats Haven which I ended up also volunteering at. I have a very round Manx named Pancake with the tailess Manx gene (she has a little bobtail) and a fluffy Domestic Long Hair brother named Pickle. They're the light of my life.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
In my significant experience working with cats of all kinds, I've always found it best to assume most cats will try to do the dumbest possible thing at any moment, be it jumping off something unsafe, darting through a door, fighting with a sibling, eating something poisonous, etc. I will always do what's is needed to make sure the environment is cat-safe and cat-friendly. Every cat craves chaos and once you are willing to recognize that, it's much easier to plan for and prevent. ❤️
Are you usually available during holidays?
I'll almost make space for the kitties! Hanging out with cats is the best part of my day and holidays are no different.
What is your favorite cat toy?
Without question: the Cat Dancer. It's the $4 toy with little cardboard tubes around a springy wire. Not only does the wire cause it to bounce around like a bug (even if you hold still) but both sides of the toy can be used so you can dial in the level of stimulation. The movement of the toy is so fun that you can even close the toy in a drawer and the kitties will play with it by themselves! Ultimately, cats just love trash and it's basically a toy made of trash so it's perfect 👍😊

Jason was absolutely wonderful. He took care of my grandma’s cat when she went into hospice. It was truly a crazy time, and he rolled with it and took great care of Misty. He knew she was lonely, and he took such good care of her. I don't know what we would have done without him.

If I could give 10 stars, I would! My cat family all loved Jason and he went above and beyond in every way over the Christmas holiday. I'm a nervous cat mom, this was a long trip, and I have a slightly complicated pride (5 cats that have to exist in three separate zones, with some challenging personalities, one very old and frail, etc). Jason just managed everything with ease, sent wonderful videos of each kitty, each day, plus detailed reports. And one day we had an electrical issue at the house and Jason capably was reset what was needed to get things working again. As a wonderful bonus, everything was cleaner than when we left! So grateful that I could relax and enjoy my trip knowing my sweet kitties were in the best hands.

Jason is truly a gem! best care taker for our cats that we’ve ever had. We were traveling for about a month over the holidays and he really went above and beyond to give us regular updates, and reassurance that our cats were happy and thriving. he’s a great a commence to and genuinely kind person. our eldest cat has trouble maintaining weight and Jason even got her to put on almost a half pound which was also just incredible. we came back to a sparkling clean home and two very happy kitties, and couldn’t be more grateful.

I am incredibly lucky to have found someone as skilled and trustworthy as Jason. My cat needs medication, but she won't cooperate with just anyone. Luckily she fully trusts Jason so I am a repeat customer!

I'm starting to think that my cats really would like me to go out of town more often so they can have more time with their "Uncle Jason"! he always goes above and beyond, gets even the shy ones to come out and the cranky ones to accept pets. I've got an unruly pride of cats and he handles everything easily, including an unwanted invasion of ants this last trip! I never have to worry about a thing when I book Jason!

Jason was a perfect fit for my cat and will be my first choice any time I need a sitter. She trusted him instantly which is important because she needs to be handled twice daily for asthma meds, and this was her first time having someone who wasn’t family look after her. Jason is a wonderful caregiver who also has a lot of previous experience with complex care which gave me peace of mind to focus on an important family trip. He provided updates so I could see her and logged info that would be helpful to reference if there was any change in her health. Jason is the kind of person who leaves things better than he found them and I highly recommend him.

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.
Claremont cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!

Jason is a loving and caring sitter! He took wonderful care of our two cats and foster cat who needed to be separated the entire time he visited them. He also stepped in for extra days which I really appreciated. Thank you, Jason!
