I am a lifelong animal lover that has made animal care into a career. I have been a pet sitter professionally for eight years and I also have my vet assistant certification. In addition to being a CVA, I am working on becoming a vet tech and eventually a Veterinarian.

Because of my background, I have worked with different, breeds, ages, medical ailments; you name it. I am very knowledgeable in cats especially, and have been known to alert owners of potiental problems that wouldn’t have been noticed otherwise.

You can be rest assured your cat is in the best care with me. 🐾

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

I am a lifelong cat owner and have been pet sitting professionally since 2018. I have been in the veterinary field since 2016.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have three wonderful rescues! Binx and Salem came from one rescue and are biological brothers. Sanderson came as a stray from the south. 🐈‍⬛

Are you usually available during holidays?

Pet sitting is a 365/24/7 business. Clients tend to leave during holidays, so that would be the most important time to make yourself available.

Kristen is a wonderful cat sitter! My cats tend to hide whenever someone comes to the house, but they all love to be around her when she stops by. I’ve nicknamed her the cat whisperer! She is communicative and over all just wonderful with my cats, I highly recommend!

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.

Middletown cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
