I'm Linda | Cat Sitting in Fort Myers, FL

Hi, I’m Linda. I moved to Fort Myers 3 years ago to be close to my daughter and her husband who own and operate Cattyshack Cat Cafe (where I find the best cat toys). I grew up in a large family and we always had pets in our home. I lost my fur babies right before I moved and have not adopted a new one, but I watc...

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

I come from a family of 5 children and we had cats my entire childhood. I started officially pet sitting when I moved to Florida 4 years ago as I no longer have pets of my own. I enjoy watching my furbaby Harvey when his parents are out of town. I also assist at Cattyshack Cafe where I get to play with all the new babies as they come in looking for their forever homes.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new babies, and the people they call parents! Each cat has a unique personality and I love getting to bring it out. The challenge is always worth it when they decide you are approved!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have a grandchild cat named Harvey. He is so smart and we enjoy spending time together playing with his favorite toys.

This was the first time leaving my Maine Coon for an extended period and Linda was so kind and comforting. She took awesome care of him because when I returned he was calm and happy as can be. Her daily pictures made me smile and I knew he was in good hands. I found my cat sitter!

Linda took excellent care of my cat and her help made my away time much more enjoyable. I felt comfortable with her in my home and her daily updates and pictures had the whole family in stitches. Linda is a complement to your service and I hope you will pass my appreciation to her and to her higher ups. I will definitely contact your service for any future time away from home..

Linda is an exceptional cat sitter who showed incredible care and compassion during a difficult time for my cat and me. After the loss of my other cat, Linda went above and beyond to ensure my remaining cat felt loved and comforted. Her attentive and nurturing nature truly made a difference. I highly recommend her services to any cat owner in need of a reliable and loving sitter. Thank you Linda for your outstanding dedication and support

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fort Myers cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
