I love all kitties - even the shy ones, the sick ones and everything in between. I will make sure your fur babies get all of the cuddles and care that they need.

Every cat I have had as an adult are all cats with special needs. I love all kitties - even the shy ones, the sick ones and everything in between. I will make sure your fur babies get all of the cuddles and care that they need. In total I have about 20 years of experience. I have done pet sitting for friends and family on and off throughout the years. I have experience with prescription diets and administering medication to cats.

I spend time playing with, cuddling with and giving attention to your babies before and after feeding, medication and cleaning needs.

I have a very calm personality that cats gravitate to. I want to make sure they are safe and well taken care of while their parents are away.

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

I have been cat sitting for over 10 years now. I have had short visits and up to 10 days of care for cat clients.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one beautiful black cat, his name is Seamus! He is my little love bug. He has a serious heart condition and so every year I have with him is a blessing.

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

I like to meet cat parents for a meet and greet with them and their cat(s) to make sure we are all on the same page with what their expectations are while they are away. I think it’s very important to follow the cat’s routines, schedules and preferences to the best of my ability. I will do more than one visit prior to the trip if it makes the cat parent more comfortable, or helps the cat to warm up to me.

Megan is my go-to kitty sitter for a reason! She recognizes when Pixie is being silly and sassy and when she is politely but determinedly saying NO. She gets excited when the cat with a silent meow actuallt makes sounds. She even recognizes when a new package of pumpkin supplements has changed shape and size, and tells me she's going to be cautious and hold back. (I didn't realize they'd grown by 3-4X their original size, so I was grateful for her intuitiveness) Megan will always be my first choice when I need to be away.

Pixie adores Megan, and it definitely feels like the feeling is mutual! Pixie was in a health flare, so I made sure Megan knew what had changed and what was in a state of flux. She was able to adjust as if this was how we normally do things and kept me updated on Pixie's progress as well as her daily antics! As long as I have the choice, we'll always choose Megan for our kitty sitting needs.

Megan took such wonderful care of my new-to-hospice senior, Sylvie! It's a true testimony to her care that I felt completely at ease, being away from home, never worrying about kitty. I was kept.up to date with pictures as well as updates on Sylvie's silly antics and biscuit factory! If it can't be me caring for my kitty, I want it to be Megan.

Megan did a great job taking care of my cats. I was concerned about a particular cat, and Megan was very helpful in that she agreed to do an extra visit last minute to check on him. This was truly appreciated. Megan updated me every day and let me know about any concerns with my cats.

I know I can always fepens on Megan to take care of my senior kitty. She's always so caring and sends me the exact kind of updates I'm looking for. It's a good feeling when I come home and kitty isn't demanding attention, because she got it from Megan. Kitty just wants Cat Mom to lay on. 💜 I'll always check Megan's availability before considering looking elsewhere. She gets cats who need meds.😻

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.

Newark cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
