I'm Jessica
Cat Sitting in Jacksonville, FL
Because I know how stressful it can be to leave your babies behind, I’m dedicated to providing a trusted, stress-free sitting experience. Whether your cat is a social butterfly who loves playtime, a senior who needs a gentle touch, or a timid rescue who just needs a patient, understanding presence, I speak their language. I treat every client's kitty with the same deep respect, love, and specialized care that I give my own!
Learn More About Jessica
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
My absolute favorite thing about cat sitting is simply being around these special creatures who have so much personality and love to give. For me, it genuinely feels like making a new friend every single time.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
My top advice for pet owners looking for a cat sitter is to find someone experienced who truly loves cats, but also deeply understands and respects their boundaries. Every cat is unique and deserves a sitter who listens to their specific needs. I also highly recommend having indoor cameras. It is a fantastic way to keep track of your cat when they are alone and ensures you can always keep an eye on them for peace of mind.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
To keep cats safe and secure, the most important thing is to strictly follow the owner’s requirements and guidelines. I pay double attention to doors and entryways to prevent escape, and I carefully follow all instructions regarding their preferences, routines, and specific needs.

Jessica took wonderful care of Luna while I was away! She was very attentive, reliable, and kept me updated throughout my trip with photos and detailed notes about how Luna was doing. I especially appreciated how patient she was with Luna and how much she genuinely cared about getting to know her personality and making her comfortable. I came home to a happy, playful kitty and everything was well taken care of. Thank you so much, Jessica!

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!
