Cat Sitting in Jacksonville, FL

CURRENTLY NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. I love cats!! I've had at least 2 cats in my home at any given time, for over 40 years. I'm retired now but I served 24 years in the Navy so there were brief periods of time when I was separated from my cats because I was out to sea. That was tough! Our kitties are family and we feel their absence when we're not with them. I know what it's like to have to leave them in someone else's hands even for a short time.
Currently, I have three cats. Sticky is my 13 yr old black kitty...

Our kitties are family and we feel their absence when we're not with them. I know what it's like to have to leave them in someone else's hands even for a short time.
Currently, I have three cats. Sticky is my 13 yr old black kitty. I named her Sticky because I had to pull her out of a sticky rat trap when she was 5 weeks old. She was angry after having 5 oil baths to remove the stickiness. I fell immediately in love.
Squeaky is my multicolored 12 yr old tabby. She's shy but loves pets from a gentle hand.
Cats are my passion. I will do everything I can to ensure their health and well-being. This is why I care for indoor-only kitties. I'd be heart broken should a kitty under my care not return home or be hurt.. I've cared for healthy kitties and terminally ill kitties with lots of love. It would be a privilege to lavish your kitties with love and attention for as long as you need me to. I would treat them like they were my own.

Kelley is my cats’ mom when I’m not around. Her sense of responsibility and commitment is such that I know she’ll hold the fort and all will be well. Kelley is trustworthy, honest and will go the extra mile to make sure the cats are well and everything is running smoothly. My 4 cats have adapted well and even Pancho has surrendered when it comes to his eye drop.

Kelley was beyond wonderful! She was punctual, patient, and highly professional. I have 4 cats and the boys are not easy, specially one of them. He is a senior that needs eye drops and Kelley was able to make sure he got the daily drop. Kelley sent a daily report with pics and was on top ( she even picked up my mail!). I can’t recommend her enough. A true blessing.

Kelley is an exceptional sitter. She is a reliable cat lover who also happens to be responsible, patient , flexible and very honest. I have senior cats who need meds and patience. Kelly administers the meds meticulously and without fail. She sends detailed reports and gives me incredible peace of mind. I leave my cats with Kelly knowing they’re cared for and given all the love they deserve. I’m fortunate to have her.

Kelley was GREAT! This is a typical update she would post along with pics from each visit. Already got her booked for next trip. Kodi and i had a great play date this morning 😻. He cried when I got here & while I was preparing his food but when we went back out his cries weren't as often. It's alittle chilly & rainy so I'm sure that helped. He jumped on the red dot initially but then started watching my hand. Smart boy! I then gave him some pets, scratches & treats & he was chill through that. He's such a sweet kitty. Everything is good here so enjoy your vacation 😺.

We are repeat cat clients with Kelley and couldn’t be happier with her car of our fur babies. I love the updates and pics she sends with each visit. I never worry when leaving them in her care and actually relax knowing my “kids” are in good hands.

Kelley is a great cat sitter! She took care of my big family of cats. This is our second time using Kelley and will use her again in the future. She sent me pictures of my babies while we were gone and some are a challenge to find! She is attentive to my needs as a cat mom! Thank you Kelley, for taking care of our cats, allowing us to go on a family trip!

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.

Jacksonville cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
