Cat Sitting in Bloomfield, CT

Hello pet parents!

I’m a 45 year old in my last semester of an MSW degree in social work from the University of CT. I live in the Hartford area and have my own transportation. I have over 35 years of pet care experience, including cats and other pets of varying species. I have a great love for and interest in animals.

I currently own one quirky and adorable cat who has my heart. She’s 12, very picky, and loves Party Mix. I’ve have had a cat friend as part of my life for the past 20 years, and can’t imagine living without one! I have experience administering insulin/subq, oral medicine, and eye drops...
Hello pet parents!

I’m a 45 year old in my last semester of an MSW degree in social work from the University of CT. I live in the Hartford area and have my own transportation. I have over 35 years of pet care experience, including cats and other pets of varying species. I have a great love for and interest in animals.

I currently own one quirky and adorable cat who has my heart. She’s 12, very picky, and loves Party Mix. I’ve have had a cat friend as part of my life for the past 20 years, and can’t imagine living without one! I have experience administering insulin/subq, oral medicine, and eye drops.

I am also great with cats that may have special needs or have interesting temperaments and personalities. I'm extremely patient and loving, and ready to nurture your cat just as you do, for a day or a month! I consider my specialty with cats to be my empathy in response to what they are feeling and thinking/acting.

I truly love making a connection with animals, and really getting to know their individual personalities and traits. I respect my clients’ homes and will care for your home impeccably, and leave it as clean as when I arrived (or cleaner!). I’m happy to do small house chores such as watering plants and bringing in your mail.

I look forward to meeting your cat(s), and you, of course!

Jennifer was awesome with our baby girl!! Two days before we left for our trip, we were told that our senior girl needed subcutaneous IV fluids every other day. I was panicked, but Jennifer was calm, cool, and collected. She had no issues with getting our sweet girl used to getting the IV fluids while we were gone as well as adding an additional oral medication. Our cat was also in the middle of not wanting to eat her normal food, but Jennifer was happy to try out different foods and tricks to get our cat to eat while we were gone. It takes a little bit for our girl to warm up to people when we’re not there, but by the end of our trip, she was curled up in Jennifer’s lap every evening and even slept in the blanket with her! Jennifer is amazing and I would highly highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic trustworthy catsitter!

I hate to leave this review because I want her all to myself! Jennifer is the best cat sitter I’ve ever had. She is so deeply kind on a cellular level, and she really gets cats. She also has a delightful personality.

Jennifer is amazing! This was our first time leaving our kitties, and we were a little nervous, but she made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. She took such wonderful care of them and gave them so much kindness, attention, and love. It was clear she truly cares about animals and treated our cats like her own. We are incredibly grateful to her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy cat sitter.

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.

Bloomfield cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
