I'm Jennifer | Cat Sitting in Jacksonville, FL

I’ve loved cats as long as I can remember, and they love me back! I’ve been owned by a total of 6…so far. Life with my current 3 cats is quite an adventure, and they keep me on my toes! They’ve even learned to do tricks & follow basic commands. Maybe I can teach yours a few? My cat Tazzie has forever changed what I thought I knew about cats. Learning about feline behavior and enrichment is very important to me so that I can provide the best environment for my cats, improve our relationship, and be the best cat sitter I can. I’m looking at becoming a certified cat behaviorist and have started taking classes and attending conferences towards that goal. My experience has included young kittens, elderly cats, sick cats, shy cats, scared cats, “spicy” cats and just about everything else in between. I’m experienced at giving eye/ear drops, transdermal medications and pills. I’ve administered meds(including an asthma inhaler) to several cats I’ve sat for in the last year. I’ve been cat sitting for friends and family since I was only 9, and with Meowtel since Oct. 2022. I foster kittens (mostly socialization) for the Jax Humane Society when I can, but my specialty is volunteering with the Great Lakes Bengal Rescue/Bengal Rescue Network. I’ve fostered several adult Bengals and a pair of kittens with medical issues (now thriving!) who all needed help until they could find forever homes. Since I’ve had to leave my cats with a sitter myself, I understand EXACTLY how worrisome it can be! No question or concern is too silly. No request is too much or t...

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

I’ve been sitting for Meowtel since Oct 2022, but I’ve been cat sitting for pretty much my whole life. I got my first job with my brother when I was about 9 sitting for our neighbor’s indoor/outdoor cats.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

CATS!!!! I just love meeting, caring for, and getting to know different cats. No matter how stressful my day has been, playing with, talking to, and cuddling cats always makes it better! I also really enjoy talking to other cat people.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Hemi (12): a fluffy, silly, energetic flame-point who loves to be brushed & can jump like you wouldn’t believe for a big boy; he also knows how to open my cabinets Mateo (8), a shy, sweet tabby who loves to snuggle & is a momma’s boy Tazzie (8), a very smart, energetic, bossy little Bengal girl who I adopted from a rescue; she loves to run on her cat wheel All my cats are in my pictures, including my 3 previous ones: Kitty (tabby), Bear (white & black) and Angel (grey & white).

Jennifer is the only cat sitter we have had that was able to our sweet, shy, previously feral Kitty to open up - and she did it within 1 day!! we are so happy to have her taking care of our three cats and seems to really enjoy her time with them. She was also able to do some training with our youngest cat which is super fun! I would highly recommend Jennifer 😻

We love having Jennifer as our regular sitter. She tries to work around the time change between home and our travel location as much as is reasonable possible to provide updates. Her extra efforts like this are always noticed.

Jennifer is amazing! She took detailed notes during the free meet-and-great and was very kind and patient with my kitties. She took amazing photos and sent very regular updates, which I really appreciate. An excellent experience!

Frequently Asked Questions

Jacksonville cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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.
