I'm Pennie | Cat Sitting in Melbourne, FL
I am now accepting new clients! If a date is blocked on my calendar that you need, please message me to see if I can accommodate your request. Please continue reading this section so that you will be informed of what we can expect from each other. Each visit includes: Fresh food and water in clean bowls, water fountain monitoring, topping off as needed and treats. Litter boxes scooped daily, adding additional litter as needed. I do not have time to empty completely, wash and clean out, so for extended sitting, please start off your reservation with clean, fresh litter boxes. Administer meds to non-aggressive cats. For spicy kitties, please have a protocol in place for the meds to be taken along with the use of pill pockets, some sort of treats or churu that the kitty will eat on its own. Pictures and/or videos along with a written update for each visit. Last, but not least, lots of pets and some playtime! Wands are especially handy for this. It safely engages them, gets them moving, playing and brings kitties so much enjoyment. Please note that 20 minute visits do not allow much time for this part. If this is a priority for your cats, please consider 45 minute visits. Additional information: My first morning visit will be at approximately 9:30-9:45, depending on your location.

This is very helpful, as I cover such a large area and can be available for more reservations verses picking up and dropping off keys. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. I will only confirm and accept reservations that include daily care for your cat or cat's. All cats should be observed in person and have human contact daily. Accidents and/or health issues can happen, water bowls can get knocked over, f...

Frequently Asked Questions
Melbourne cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $22.00. 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.
