Learn More About Hayley
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love getting to know your fur babies! I have met so many different kinds of cats with different personalities. Many sweet and adventurous, and many shy! I secretly love the shy ones because it’s so fulfilling when they come out of their shell and show you their big PURRsonality!
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 2 kitties named Smokey and Squeaky! They’re sisters and look almost the same but have very different PURRsonalities!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Making sure all cats are accounted for before I am leaving the home. I will double check closets in case someone got locked in by accident, it happens! I also make sure to cautious enter and exit homes with a foot or my bag low to the ground to avoid any escape artists getting out!

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.
Danbury cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!

Hayley finds pure joy in caring for kitties! As a professional cat sitter, she has taken care of hundreds of cats over the years - all with a wide range of personalities and different care routines. Cats respond to her "total cat person" vibe! She is passionate about cats and cat care, always increasing her knowledge to become an even better sitter. Hayley knows when to use her slow approach meeting shy babies to ensure they are comfortable, and when to be high-energy and give plentiful snuggles for the active and loving ones! She takes care of all of them like they are her own - making sure that they are as happy and comfortable as they can be your absence.

Hayley is a fantastic cat sitter! They are responsible, caring, and truly love animals. My cat warmed up to them right away, and I felt completely at ease knowing my pet was in such good hands. I highly recommend Hayley for anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!
