I'm Wilmer | Cat Sitting in Fort Lauderdale, FL

I am a journalist passionate about cats. I grew up always surrounded by pets, and I have adopted about five cats from my teenage years. I love how independent they are, And I think the love they give us is genuine and unique. I currently have two kittens, Tita and Scar. I rescued them both from the street. I have worked taking care of cats and dogs for friends and acquaintances. And it has been a wonderful...

Wilmer is great to work with and great with the furry kids. He is very thorough and on top of it starting the initial meet up all through the very last visit. Very reliable, great communicator, and a cat whisperer. My cats are relatively shy; I was not expecting to come out of hiding to meet and greet him but they did.

Wilmer is just a part of our extended family now and Ruckus watches for him to come back out the window. Wilmer is soooo thorough in his communication and gives us incredible peace of mind while we are away. We are so grateful for his care!

Wilmer goes way "above & beyond" any expectations. He kept in touch with video of his visit and left little treats for my cat (who spent the entire time hiding!) He is meticulous with details and cleaning up after my frightened cat. He even cared for the indoor plants! I am immensely pleased and delighted to have found him and will call again & again.

If you're looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter for your furball, don't look no further, Wilmer is your guy. Wilmer cared and kept company for Shadow like I never had to leave. He kept me updated with great photos and videos, as well as detailed news. Thank you.

Wilmer was so fantastic as FRanklin's buddy while I traveled. The videos and photos were awesome. We can't wait to book Wilmer in December.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Lauderdale cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
