Throughout a lifetime of close cat companionship I have picked up a set of skills that make me the ultimate cat-care choice. I am experienced with cats of all temperaments. My three kitties at home range from sweet and meek, to wild and unpredictable. I also have experience with cats requiring at home medical care. I am capable of giving medication, assisting with special needs, and whatever else your kitty might need to stay safe and happy in my care. I am an experienced pet-parent myself, having cared for over ten cats throughout the years. I know how special a cat can be, and I promise to treat yours with love, kindness, and care.

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

I just started cat sitting. I also sit for dogs on another app.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have Apollo, he’s a sweet gray tabby. His sister Temi , who is a shy Siamese. And Henryk, she’s a long haired orange & fluffy princess. My cats are so spoiled. They love treat puzzles & supervised outdoor enrichment. The siblings, Apollo & Temi came from a shelter. Henryk, was a stray that my son took in. He moved, so we kept her with us. It’s a bit of a circus, but I love them all so much. Cats are the best furry friends.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I know how sneaky cats can be. I’m vigilant about safety.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am usually available during the holidays. We often do holidays on different dates so we can include friends & family.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

My Siamese is my anxious cat, so I’m good with timid/ anxious cats. I follow their lead. Giving them as much space or attention as they are comfortable with. Treats sometimes help. I always ask the pet parents for any tips that may help.


Medication Experience:

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills

Marcy has been out pet sitter for many years. She is the BEST! She is loving and gentle with all of our pets. We never have to worry about them missing us while we are gone because it's like they get a vacation while with her. She gives them tons of love and treats. It's not uncommon to get daily pictures of our pets. Once we even received a picture with them all sitting with her on the couch while she read them a children's book! They love her!

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.

Riverside cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!
