Cat Sitting in Orange Park, FL

Hi, I’m Val! I’ve had cats almost my entire life, and even now have 6! My very first best friend was a cat named Thomas that I got when I was two years old.

I’ve had cats almost my entire life, and even now have 6! My very first best friend was a cat named Thomas that I got when I was two years old. I have experience with a wide range of kitty needs including administering medication, knowing critical signs that a cat may be sick where others may misinterpret as behaviors.

Because I’m an avid cat mom, I ensure I provide the highest level of care! I always wash cat dishes, deep clean water fountains, scoop litter and clean up litter tracking! I want to ensure your kitty feels safe and comfortable while you’re away!

Learn More About Valerie

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 6 kitties! Two orange boys named Cain & Bain, two brothers named Maynard (cow print) & Serj (tuxedo), my two girls are Princess Bagel (long haired black cat) & Poppy (white/grey tabby).

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

The advice I would give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter is to do a trial visit before you go on a long trip. You want to make sure the person you have in your house is going to take care of your pet adequately and to your standards.

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

I like to start with an in person meet & greet to ensure I have a clear understanding of how to care for the kitties and so I can answer any questions you have for me!

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

I ensure the safety & security of the cats and home by being mindful of my surroundings, getting eyes on each cat every day and always being cautious opening doors.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am usually available during the holidays! If I’m ever going to be away I can give lots of notice.

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

With timid or anxious cats I try to respect their space and be a calm gentle presence. Sometimes if I sit very still and talk gently after a few days they get curious!


Medication Experience:

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills Injections / Diabetic Management Subcutaneous Fluids

Valerie helped to make our vacation stress free as we knew our kitties were in safe hands with daily updates. They both loved her, even our shy boy warmed up on the first day! She made sure they were well fed, watered, and kept their litter box clean and asked questions to make sure everything was done perfectly. Thank you!

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.

Orange Park 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!
