Cat Sitting in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hi, I’m Ayelén — a reliable and experienced cat sitter with a deep connection to felines. 😻
I’ve had cats since childhood and have always been surrounded by them. I’ve also been involved in rescue centers, where I worked with cats in need of socialization and support to overcome their fear of humans.

Thanks to my own cats, I have extensive experience administering medication and providing special care when needed.

Hi, I’m Ayelén — a reliable and experienced cat sitter with a deep connection to felines. 😻
I’ve had cats since childhood and have always been surrounded by them. I’ve also been involved in rescue centers, where I worked with cats in need of socialization and support to overcome their fear of humans.

Thanks to my own cats, I have extensive experience administering medication and providing special care when needed.

I know what it’s like to be on the other side, trusting someone else with your beloved fur babies — and that’s why I take this role so seriously. My goal is to give you peace of mind while keeping your cat’s routine consistent, their environment calm, and offering them plenty of love and dedication. ❤️

Whether they’re playful, cuddly, or prefer quiet company, I’ll adapt to their individual needs and care for them like family. ❤️

Learn More About Ayelen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy most is the special connection I can create with each cat. Each cat has such a unique and distinct personality that I find it fascinating to discover. It’s incredibly rewarding to provide them with affection, personalized attention, and ensure they’re happy and relaxed. Every visit allows me to share special moments with them, and that’s what I value most about this job.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

To ensure the safety of the cats and the home, I make sure everything is secure and in order, checking for any potential hazards. I stick to the cats' usual routine, making sure they feel comfortable and relaxed, and I also spend time playing with them to keep them engaged. Additionally, I keep the owners updated with messages and photos. My priority is to provide them with a safe, fun, and loving environment. ☺️

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I have extensive experience handling cats, as I’ve had cats all my life and have also been involved in rescue centers, where I worked on socializing cats that were afraid of humans. When handling timid or anxious cats, I strive to be as calm and patient as possible. I give them the space they need to feel comfortable at their own pace, without forcing them to interact. I approach them slowly and gently, often speaking in a soft voice to help them get used to my presence. Over time, I offer gentle play or petting, always respecting their boundaries and need for security.

Ayelen was fantastic with our three cats and home. She was very responsible, kept us updated while we were away with photos and even a cute video of the kitties. She took the time to make sure each of them was comfortable and cared for. It’s obvious she genuinely enjoys working with animals. Our cats were calm and happy when we returned. Their boxes were clean, water and food bowls full, and even helped with some kitty clean-up...which meant a lot to us. We’re very grateful for the care she provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Ayelen was beyond wonderful! She truly went above & beyond to care for cat! She visited multiple times a day, brought him special treats (I preapproved so he could try them), played with and brushed him and sent us pictures and videos every day. We knew he was being very well looked after. I have never had someone else watch my little buddy and Ayelen definitely put me at ease. Highly recommend her!

I arranged to have Ayelen look after my Egyptian Maus last minute after my prior cat sitter fell through. She was able to meet and greet within 24hrs, and asked great questions. Maus are notoriously shy with strangers, and I was pleasantly surprised when she sent videos and pictures from her visits, with all of them out, playing and accepting affection from her.

Ayelen was incredible! My cats loved her. One of them is very shy, but with Ayelen she came out to be petted, which says a lot. She always sent us pictures and videos, fed them very well, and gave them so much love. We are super happy with her and will definitely leave our cats with her again on our next trip. Highly recommend!

Absolutely perfect! Ayelen was lovely! She was attentive, thorough in communication, and made sure to have all the info! I loved that she came to meet the kitties before the sit. I felt so safe and happy leaving my kitty babies in her care. She went above and beyond in playing with them, and bringing in our packages too! I would absolutely recommend her for your sits!

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.

Fort Lauderdale 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 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!
