I'm Bonniejean

Cat Sitting in Kissimmee, FL

Hello Kitty Moms and Dads,

My name is BonnieJean and I am a fellow "kitty-owned human". I certainly come kitty approved. My furbaby, ZoeeMarie, has made sure that I am 100% kitty-trained in the art of num‐nums feeding (both canned food and dry food), treat-treat distributing for good kitty behavior, fuzzy mouse tossing, feather wand waving, fur petting, belly-rubbing (exactly two or the biting will commence), kitty brushing, and litterbox cleaning. I am super cat friendly and usually am befriended quickly by other feline babies. Many of my friends have had me cat-sit their furbabies throughout the years because their kitties accepted me so quickly.

Being cat certified also means I am familiar with giving shots and drawing blood (one of my last furbaby was diabetic), administering eye drops, ear drops, oral medication, and subcutaneous (SQ) fluid. I have been taking care of senior and special needs kitties for so long that I even have silly ways to get the most finicky kitty to take their medicines...
Hello Kitty Moms and Dads,

Being cat certified also means I am familiar with giving shots and drawing blood (one of my last furbaby was diabetic), administering eye drops, ear drops, oral medication, and subcutaneous (SQ) fluid. I have been taking care of senior and special needs kitties for so long that I even have silly ways to get the most finicky kitty to take their medicines.

I became kitty and kitten-certified when I was a child and lived on a home-based farm. My love for kitties and my kitty-guided experience were an asset the years I helped foster abaondoned kittens and feral cats. I happily bottle fed and "mommy cleaned" kittens until they were old enough to be adopted into their furever home (though it is bitter-sweet to have them grow and leave the nest 💓) I also helped rejuvenate and socialize adult kitties.

I recently became recertified in the kitten care of bottle feeding and "mommy cleaning" when I rescued a tiny ball-of-fuz from the middle of the road (a thorough search found no other littermates or mommy cat). Grayson-Dash has now become a sweet, but crazy, part of our feline-contolled family. 😸

I drive for Uber/ Lyft; when I am not spoiling my fuzzy, fluffy, feline overlords. ZoeeMarie and I travel a lot, so my Adventure Kitty is amazing and keeps me well trained. (Yes, she has ME trained enough to put her on leash and travel to different states with her.) I am currently working on socializing Grayson-Dash and our first trip away was a success. My schedule does change a bit, but I always make sure to complete my promised kitty appointments. Because I drive all day, my times to cat-sit are flexible. I also believe in keeping the kitty parents updated while they are away from their feline babies - nothing is sweeter than a picture or message during the day when you are missing their crazy antics.

You have many choices on who can help take care your furbaby, however, if you would like a pawesome and purrtastic cat sitting for your treasured feline furbaby, schedule meow; both you and your kitty will be happy you did.

Kitty-trained services you will receive:
* Complimentary 'first meet & greet' is requested so you can show me the exact way your furbaby/furbabies likes to be spoiled.
* Dry and/or canned food given per your exact instructions. Low food reminder sent if needed.
* Cleaning of used food bowls and utensils, so your baby/babies have clean diningware and you come home to a clean house.
* Check, clean, refill of water as needed. Exact water requested will be used.
* Cleaning of litter box/boxes and removal of waste and trash. Low litter reminder sent if needed.
* Cuddle-bugging, fur pets, belly-rubbing, ear or hindquarter scratches; whatever your furry housemate(s) desire, like, or request shall be my top priority while in your home.
* Playing, cat-fishing, and other silly kitty games will be played with pleasure.
* Pictures and updates sent per visit, so you can enjoy your trip without worrying about your precious feline baby/babies. Plus there is nothing better than receiving pictures of your beautiful fuzzy baby/babies while you are away from them.
* Medicines can be given, with prior agreement - subcutaneous (SQ) fluid, insulin injections, blood/sugar test,, oral pills/drops, eye and/or ear drops given as needed (even wound care if needed). You won't have to worry about your kitty's special needs while you are away.
* Many of my furbabies have enjoyed the hypnotic display of a fish tank, so I have been kitty-trained for fish feeding.
* I'm a green thumb, so indoor plants can also be watered while you are away. You should come home to happy and healthy kitties and plants.
* Mail and/or package retrieval an added bonus from home mailbox.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry, fuzzy, feline baby/babies. 🐈

Learn More About Bonniejean

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

I have been with Meowtel for almost 4 years. However, I have kitty sat for my friends, neighbors, and coworkers (and all their friends and family) since I have been old enough to drive. (About 35 years) I also grew up on a farm, so animal care has been part of my life since a very young child. I was born into a Cat Family, so I like to say that I was "Born to be a Cat Person".

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

THE KITTIES! (I personally feel that anyone that says anything different shouldn't be a kitty sitter.) I am such a cat person! So much so, that I have been to other states and countries to see and experience some amazing things. But when a kitty is found, I will stop what I am doing, just to pet and talk to the kiitty. Feral or humanfied, I stop, sit on the ground, and give my time to that kitty or kitties. I love each unique personality and character. I will, and have, given up my personal meal to feed a hungry kitty. I can honestly say that every cell of my body loves cats and only want what's best for them.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Can I tell you about my favorite kitty sitting reservation? I honestly can not, because every and any sitting where the kitty or kitties interact with me is my favorite. I have had all different types of kitties and kitty situations. I love being able to pet and cuddle with your kitty. If they are more standoffish, I will still do my best to befriend your kitty. I have had parents tell me that their kitty never likes people and a few days later, I am sending pictures of us cuddling. My favorite reservation is the one that the kitty deems me worthy of their attention! 😻

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Do I have kitties myself? Well... there are two kitties that allow me in their home to pay the bills and spoil them. Let's be honest - I work hard so my kitties can live the good life! LOL ZoeeMarie is my 14-year old long-haired Tuxedo. She is our travelbug when we're in the RV. Grayson-Dash is our "newest" addition, having rescued him from the road. He is already bigger than Zoee. His blue coat is gorgeous and he knows it. (I call him the Monster. Trust me, if you knew him, you'd agree.) I have only been without my own kitty for one year of my life and that was because the loss of my 17-year old Rajah-Lynn broke my heart - she had been with me for so much in my early life. My heart needed to heal, so I helped foster kitties during that time instead.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Read their reviews and profile well, look through their pictures. Don't be afraid to message them and ask questions. Even ask to talk with them on the phone. When you find the sitter you think is the one for you, setup a Meet & Greet in advance enough, that if you do not feel comfortable enough with the sitter's knowledge or do not like them, then you can cancel and find the correct sitter for your furbabies. You are stressed enough getting ready for your trip, you shouldn't be stressed about the person you are entrusting with the care of your sweet babies. Your kitties deserve the best care.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

My first is always being friendly and honest. I work hard to be as quick as possible when answering questions posed to me. I read what they have posted in their kitties' profile and reach out as soon as a request comes in and start planning our Meet and Greet. I take notes during my visit, especially if the kitty is a special needs kitty, ask questions, and make sure to review all the care expected. I also give suggestions, if possible, from my years of having and working with sick kitties. I make sure to interact with the kitties with the parent onlooking to develop trust between all of us.

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

Not to be cliche, but the safety of your kitty starts with you. I am a stickler about your kitty's vet information. I am an outdoors girl and you learn fast that it's "Best to have and not need, than need and not have". I tell all kitty parents that when an emergency happens that is not the time when I need to try to figure out where to take your kitty. I WILL take them to the closest vet or my vet (if they are close) if it is not filed out. Your cats health is my top priority. I also work daily to be able to pickup your kitty - your kitty has to feel safe enough to let me pick them up in an emergency. Even if the Kitty only lets me pick it up for a second, at least your baby knows the I am gentle.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Well, Meowtel considers just about everything a Holiday, so I'm a YES on over 90% of their holidays. I am from the Tampa Bay Area, so if we are going "home" to visit family (2 hours away), I usually take care of all my kitty sittings early in the morning (before heading West), spend the night away, and then take care of all my kitty sittings late the next evening upon my return. If you have a Holiday in mind, contact me and I'll let you know my availability. 😺 Also contact me if you need Overnight Sittings for your special-needs kitty - I will approve them on a case to case basis. Thank you for understanding.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Whatever toy the kitty, or kitties, I am caring for will play with. It's about the kitties and not me. Though I have found that most kitties respond best to a wand toy - gives you and them enough space to play, even of they are too shy to let you touch them. Usually, even the most shiest of kitties will overcome their fear and play. This builds trust and friendship. THAT is my favorite cat toy!

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

I talk to them and play with them. I will take the time to get to know their personality. I have sat next to a kitty while she was eating, showing her I was kitty-friendly. I have laid on the floor, playing with a kitty while they hid under the bed. I have sat on the floor, gently talking to a kitty that growled at me. I will show them that I am trustworthy enough for their time. Most kitties warm up to me. If I feel that a kitty and I did not bond well, I will ask the parent for a new meeting the next time they book. This way the kitty can interact with us both and be less stressed.

BonnieJean is AMAZING! We had a cat sitter in the past but they weren’t as transparent and sharing of information as BonnieJean is. She’ll meet with you first to let you know exactly what to expect. She sent us pictures of our Ragdoll babies everyday, washed their dishes and fountain, changed the litter robot bag, and, most importantly, loved on our girls the whole time she was there. We felt so relaxed that they were being so well taken care of! When we got home, packages were brought inside (and there were ALOT of them!) and there was an adorable crayon picture “from the kitties” welcoming us home. I already have another trip booked and will definitely be requesting her…no questions!! I can’t imagine anyone else taking care of our babies!

Bonniejean took such good care of our kitties while we were in Germany. I never had to worry about someone not showing up, or not following the instructions I left. She went above and beyond what was required! She is knowledgeable about cat behavior as well, which is a plus. They were very happy with her as well. I would definatley have her take care of the fur babies again!

We love BonnieJean!! This was our first time using Meowtel and we are so grateful to have found her. She was able to care for our diabetic kitty while we were out of town and took excellent care of him. She gave insulin shots 2x/day and kept him on his usual schedule. He was in great hands! We look forward to calling BonnieJean in the future.

Bonniejean is a Godsend! she really is the cat whisperer! I was terrified of leaving my kitten and going on a trip for an entire week. My kitten is very timid and not used to different people in the house but Bonniejean not only was able to break the ice with her but soon enough they were cuddling! She took time with my baby, fed her, played with her and made sure she wouldn’t feel as much us being away! She made my trip so much better knowing my baby was in great hands! She is 1000 out of 10! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Bonniejean made going away so much easier and gave us peace of mind. She was very thorough (took notes @ the meet & greet as well as the actual care given), responsible, kind, and respectful. We received detailed reports and the pictures she sent helped assuage our fears of leaving our cats behind for a week. We are truly grateful and will definitely use her services again as well as recommend to others.

Kissimmee cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
