Learn More About Matt

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Sallie and Kendrick live with family friends. No one in the family is willing to cat sit because Kendrick has a propensity for violence. I’ve found long sleeves, patience, and a soft demeanor work wonders. “Kendrick Time” has become a great little escape for me and he now greets me at the door with a leg rub. He and I read together while Sallie sleeps nearby. He has grown accustomed to my presence and is an entirely different little guy when I am over.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

The current Cat Coven is led by feral-turned “still feral” unapproachable gremlin, Edith Bouvier. Now 10 years old, she has been witness to quite a big home: Milea, Miso, Moby, Jack, Lila, Bill Murray, and Screaming Mimi. Sadly she’s lost those friends over the years, but a foster fail brought her a new batch of minions! She has (begrudgingly) welcomed Fern, Wolfie, Sailor, Winnie, and Francie into her cottage. Their days are spent on the screened porch when weather allows, bird-watching, squirrel-teasing, and keeping an eye on those pesky ferals in the neighborhood that dad is always trying to save. They LOVE cat tv on YouTube, playing with tail-toys, fuzzy mice (but dad removes all the tails), balls, crinkly things, and each other. I don’t love the idea of indoor/outdoor kitties but I know some are too stubborn to accept domesticated life. All of mine are 100% inside cats.

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

My ❤️ belongs to Little Edie, aka Edith Bouvier. She was brought to us as a kitten by the neighboorhood Tom (neutered). My 1st foster-fail, she never really outgrew her feral tendencies. After a few failed attempts at “kitty Zoloft” I came to terms w/ living w/ an indoor feral. I’ll sit near her & we will have long chats (they seem a bit one-sided) & I’ll get slow blinks & purring & kneading, & all the things that a cat does when they are happy. Those times have become so special to me that I, too, have accepted our arrangement. Just being NEAR a cat may be enough to get them to trust you. When I have to give Edie meds, cut her nails, or groom her, she reluctantly allows me to “trap” her - once she is in the lap getting her “spa treatment” she turns to mush.

Matt was really good with my kitty and all my other animals. He is very knowledgeable about cats and made sure to spend time and give health updates with my elderly kitty while I was away which helped me relax more on vacation.

Matt did a fantastic job caring for my kitties! He sent detailed updates whenever he visited them and lots of pictures! All my anxieties were erased having him take care of my cats and whenever I need a cat sitter again I hope he is available!

Matt was very concientious and knowledgeable, and has a clear love for cats. I would certainly recommend him as a sitter for my friend's cats. He made us feel very secure that our cats were being well taken care of.

Frequently Asked Questions

Orlando cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $25.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
