Cat Sitting in Seymour, CT

Hello! My name is Cat Devald. As a calm, dependable, and professional caregiver, I’ve been providing loving, experienced cat care since 2017 - though my bond with cats goes back much further. I’ve shared my life with nine cats over the years and helped many strays as well. Currently I have two cats: Ibi (short for Ibolya) and Sophie. Some of my cats have faced chronic health conditions like CKD, IBD, stomatitis and more, so I’m very comfortable administering medication, managing special... Hello! My name is Cat Devald. As a calm, dependable, and professional caregiver, I’ve been providing loving, experienced cat care since 2017 - though my bond with cats goes back much further. I’ve shared my life with nine cats over the years and helped many strays as well. Currently I have two cats: Ibi (short for Ibolya) and Sophie. Some of my cats have faced chronic health conditions like CKD, IBD, stomatitis and more, so I’m very comfortable administering medication, managing special diets and working with cats who need extra patience and support.

My care philosophy is simple: I let each cat come to me in their own time, using a gentle voice and slow respectful movements to build trust. I offer overnight stays, drop ins and transportation (I’m USDA registered) across most of Fairfield and Eastern New Haven Counties.

Your cat’s comfort and well-being along with your peace of mind are always my priority. I look forward to working with you and caring for your cat!

Learn More About Cat

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy developing a relationship with the cats I care for and showing them love and spoiling them so that they are at ease while their humans are away. I also enjoy giving peace of mind to the owners so that they can enjoy their vacation or focus on their work without worrying about their furry friend at home.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Choose someone who you vibe with. You don’t need to be best friends but your gut shouldn’t be giving you butterflies either!

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I always offer a free meet and greet where enjoy meeting both pet and parents. I bring a small note pad just in case there is information that is supplied that is not in the app. When going over everything, you are bound to forget something so I always write things down.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I generally work all holidays. If I’m personally going on vacation or otherwise not available then I make sure to mark that. Honestly, it’s rare for me NOT to work holidays.

This is our second time that Cat has taken care of our ginger boy Marvin while we’ve been away. She did a great job of feeding him, playing with him, emptying the litter boxes. He’s newly diagnosed with asthma, she was able to administer his prednisone every day and even asthma train him with the inhaler! We are very pleased with all of the pictures, videos, and updates that she sent, I looked forward to seeing it every morning on my trip. Would highly recommend.

Cat was great with our two cats including our older cat who needed medicine while we were away. Cat took the time to get to know each cat and make sure each was carried for and also kept an eye on our house while we were away!

Cat was an amazing sitter for my 2 kittens. She took the time to come over so she could meet them and learn about their routines even before I left for my 2 week vacation. Every day I was away, Cat sent me photos, videos and a report out of how my fur babies were doing which was so reassuring and became something I and my fellow travelers looked forward to receiving each day. She went above and beyond, also watching after my house and collecting my mail and packages and even gave my cats their monthly deworming medication while I was away. I will definitely be using Cat again and recommend her to anyone who needs someone caring and thoughtful to look after their cats!

Cat was absolutely fantastic. Me and my husband have never booked a sitter before and we were a little nervous to leave our cat during our wedding weekend but Cat exceeded our expectations. She sent updates and photos after every visit and we came home to a very happy cat. I would definitely recommend her a million times over. She was thorough and very respectful of us and our cats needs. 10/10

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.

Seymour 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!
