Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Rue is my 3 year old tuxedo cat who was found by my little brother. He found her curled up near the motor of his car, trying to stay warm. I took her to help find a home, but kept her myself! We also have a female tabby cat named Toast. She’s less than a year old and she’s also foster fail from a litter of 5 we were fostering. All of her other siblings found great homes as well!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Making sure all doors are secured while entering and leaving the home. Making sure to not leave anything out that the cats can get into such as medicine, human (or other) food, harmful plants, etc. Being sure to follow the human directions on what the cats can or can not do or eat as well as their instructions for locking the house or leaving on lights.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

One of the most timid cats I’ve met is my own. She is anxious and really only comes out at night when the house is empty, dark, and quiet. When people visit they always as about her/if they can see her but I kindly explain she is shy and likely hiding. I think it’s important that we don’t force cats into doing anything, especially in their own homes. For cats I will sit - I would enter quietly and make slow movements. Give them time and space to approach, or not! As long as they have what they need, if they prefer not to be touched, that’s ok. It’s their house!

I met Jacki when she was a teen and I thought she was much older because of her level of maturity and ability to communicate with people older, she is very wise beyond her years

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 $23.00. 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.
