I'm Olivia
Cat Sitting in Shelton, CT
During my cat sitting visits, I will first say the cat’s name/names and if they seem uninterested in interacting I will ignore them until they decide they would like to interact with me. I will feed them, clean the litter and whatever else is asked of me by you!
Learn More About Olivia
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I talk to them on the phone and introduce myself, send references if asked for and go over and met with them before hand, going through everything they would like me to do for their cat and aspects of care that are unique to their cat/cats specifically. When I am on the job I often send photos to show how we are doing and give updates.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I will keep all doors and windows closed, avoid loud noises and loud music. I will keep all of my food and medicines in closed bags away from your cats. If there is anything else I can do it ensure Saftey in your specific house, I would like to know.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I try to give them time to themselves, forcing my self on them will only make things 10x worse. They are probably uncomfortable with someone they don’t know in their space.

I highly recommend Olivia if you need someone to take care of your cat(s) while you are out of town. She is prompt and meticulous. I have a very shy cat who typically hides when anyone he doesn't know enters the house. It was only a few visits by Olivia before he came out of his shell and socialized. I have a very comforting feeling when I trael now, because I know my little guy is in good hands

Olivia did a wonderful job taking care of my kitty during my week long trip across the country. She sent me photos daily during her daily visit to feed and water my baby girl and was very sweet about visiting with her. I could not have asked for a better person to babysit my cat while I was away. Thank you Olivia!

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.
Shelton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $39.00. 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 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!
