I'm Carrie
Cat Sitting in Rocky Hill, CT
I'm comfortable caring for senior cats and those with special medical needs. One of my own cats required IV treatments during a battle with liver failure, so I understand the importance of patience, careful observation, and following detailed care instructions... Cats have been part of my family for over 40 years, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. Throughout my life, I've cared for cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs, giving me the experience and confidence to provide loving, attentive care while you're away.
I'm comfortable caring for senior cats and those with special medical needs. One of my own cats required IV treatments during a battle with liver failure, so I understand the importance of patience, careful observation, and following detailed care instructions. I know how stressful it can be to leave a cat with medical needs, and I strive to provide the same level of care and compassion that I would want for my own pets.
Today, I share my home with two wonderful catsTequila and Sammi, who are both over seven years old. Tequila is mostly deaf, so I have firsthand experience adapting to a cat with hearing loss and understanding that every cat has unique needs and communicates differently.
As a lifelong cat lover, I respect that every cat has its own personality and routine. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm, reassuring presence, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your feline family member is receiving dependable, compassionate care from someone with decades of hands-on experience.
Learn More About Carrie
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
When working with a new cat owner, I like to learn as much as I can about their cat before the first visit. I ask about the cat's personality, favorite activities, routines, and what helps them feel comfortable. I also make sure I understand any special needs, such as medications, dietary requirements, mobility issues, or other daily care instructions. Having this information in advance allows me to provide care that matches the cat's normal routine, reduces stress, and helps both the cat and owner feel confident and at ease.
What is your favorite cat toy?
My favorite cat toy isn't always a cat's favorite! I've found that some of the best "toys" aren't even store-bought. A crumpled piece of paper, a piece of string (with supervision), or even an empty cardboard box can keep a cat entertained for a long time. Laser light beams can also be a lot of fun for many cats, but I like to end the play session by letting them catch a real toy or treat so they don't get frustrated. Every cat has their own preferences, so it's always fun to see what they choose.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I have a very shy cat at home, and one of my friends does too. In my experience, it's best to approach shy or anxious cats with patience and let them set the pace. Sometimes offering a treat helps build trust, but other times the best thing you can do is sit quietly, speak softly, and simply let the cat be. Every cat is different, and giving them the time and space to feel safe often goes a long way.

Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a 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 Meet & Greet!
