I'm Ava
Cat Sitting in Miami, FL
Iām reliable, trustworthy, and detail-oriented, and Iāll follow your care instructions exactly to help keep your catās routine as consistent as possible while youāre... Hi! Iām a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a home with two cats, two large dogs, and several small animals, so caring for pets has always been a part of my life. I have experience cat sitting and genuinely enjoy getting to know each catās unique personality, whether theyāre playful, independent, or somewhere in between.
Iām reliable, trustworthy, and detail-oriented, and Iāll follow your care instructions exactly to help keep your catās routine as consistent as possible while youāre away. From feeding and fresh water to litter box cleaning, playtime, and plenty of affection (on their terms!), Iāll make sure your cat receives attentive, loving care.
Iāll also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy, safe, and well cared for. As a college student, I value responsibility, communication, and punctuality, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I look forward to meeting you and your feline family!
Learn More About Ava
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
Iāve been pet sitting through Rover for the past 5 years and have cared for many cats with different personalities, routines, and needs. In addition to cat sitting throughout college, I also grew up with two cats of my own, so Iām very familiar with their daily care and behavior. Iām comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, administering oral medications if needed, interactive playtime, and providing companionship while respecting each catās individual preferences. I understand how important it is to keep cats on their normal routine, and I always follow ownersā instructions carefully. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while youāre away, while keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Your catās safety and your homeās security are always my top priorities. I make sure all doors, windows, and screens are securely closed before leaving, and Iām careful to prevent curious cats from slipping outside when entering or exiting the home. I follow your care instructions closely, keep food, water, and the litter box clean, and pay attention to any changes in your catās behavior, appetite, or health. I also treat every home with the utmost respect by locking up securely after each visit, keeping the space clean and tidy, and only using areas necessary to care for your cat. Iāll send regular updates and photos so you know your cat is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve while youāre away.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I let every cat set the pace. I know that some cats warm up quickly while others need more time, and Iām happy to be patient. I never force interactions or try to pick up a cat that isnāt comfortable. Instead, I move slowly, speak softly, respect their space, and let them come to me when theyāre ready. I focus on keeping their routine consistent, providing a calm environment, and using play or treats (if approved by the owner) to help build trust. My goal is to make each visit as low-stress as possible so your cat feels safe and comfortable while youāre away. Even if a cat prefers to keep their distance, Iāll make sure theyāre well cared for and closely monitor that theyāre eating, drinking, and behaving normally.

Miami cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
