I'm Kristen | Cat Sitting in Ypsilanti, MI

Hello! My name is Kristen, and I am a mother, a professional sales consultant, and a full-time law school student at the University of Michigan Law.

I have experience with social anxiety and kitties with special needs of all kinds. Currently, I have three kitties of my own: Jedi Master, a special needs kitty, Moon Bear, my black panther, and Freckles, our rambunctious girl. Cats bring joy to my heart, and ...

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

I have 35 years of experience caring for animals through personal companions, foster organizations, and rescue organizations. I began caring for cats other than my own at the age of ten, working as a foster and adoption coordinator for a local cat rescue. I briefly worked as a vet tech assistant, where I learned to work with animals of all kinds in a medical capacity. I am trained in socialization, fostering, adoption, and some medical procedures. I have experience with social anxiety and kitties with special needs of all kinds.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Meowtel allows me to share my love of kitties and the animal community, bringing joy through helping others and socializing with furry friends. As a cat mom myself, I understand the importance of having a trusted ally for our furry friends. Cat sitting brings me great joy, and I am grateful to provide owners with peace of mind while they travel or take time away from home.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Currently, I have three kitties of my own: Jedi Master, a special needs kitty, Moon Bear, my black panther, and Freckles, our rambunctious girl. Cats bring joy to my heart, and I could not imagine a life without them.

Kristen is very sweet and easy to communicate with. She was understanding with our requests and never made us feel like we were being too much. She was patient and super kind with us. I would recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a sweet, detailed, and chill person to trust with their kitties 🩷

Kristen is a phenomenal sitter and a stellar representation for Meowtel. She not only sent numerous ADORABLE photos of my babies and kept communication super open, she is a delightful person all around. Kristen loved and cared for my kitties as her own, and I’m so grateful!
