Learn More About Philip

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

I've been taking care of friends cats since for nearly 30 years. I've had cats for 20 years and I'm the first one to look for cats wherever I go in the world. I even carry cat treats with me wherever I go.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Listen. 🤣 I LOVE CATS. ALL CATS. Even the crabby, hiding, weird cats. I just love cats and cat sitting is so much fun.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I was a cat sitter in Oakland, CA for 2 weeks taking care of Ramona and Beezus! Ramona would purr if you just looked at her and Beezus took some warning up, but after a day, she was following me everywhere, sleeping on me and my new best buddy. It was the best possible situation.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 very very very cute kitties named Carl, a medium small tuxedo cow cat who is bonded forever to me, and Penny, a tiny, tiny calico cat that is attached to my partner, Anna, but is obsessed with me regarding mice and mice.

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

Find someone who you feel really loves cats and isn't just trying to make a quick buck.

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

I visit and show them that I pay a lot of attention to the cats and I pay attention to instructions. I also assure them that I'll take lots of pictures and videos to send them.

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

I make sure all doors are closed and locked. I double check food and water and make sure there aren't harmful wires or plants or anything that could make a cat unwell.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Depends on the holiday

What is your favorite cat toy?

Carl's Platypus. Carl has a tiny furry platypus that makes him do some cirque de soleil moves in the air. It's quite spectacular to watch!

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

I'm especially good with cats like this. I let them approach me and don't try and swoop in to pet them. I sit and wait. My calm energy draws them to me. Works every time.

Second time working with Philip, and while my cats continue to be weird little guys Philip did a great job of taking care of them while I was away.

Another amazing reservation with Philip. He has managed to charm my Delia who is standoffish with many others. He took great care of Buddy and Delia and provided me with thorough updates for my peace of mind. Thanks Philip!

Philip was fantastic. Buddy loved him from day 1. Delia gets mad when I leave but it didn’t take long for her to warm up. He is thoughtful and took great care of my babies. thanks Philip!

Philip did a great job with my shy 16 year old kitty. He left plenty of food, water, litter, and feedback, and gave extra attention so my cat wasn’t lonely. He even took great photos! I will be sure to request Philip for any future cat-sitting needs.

Philip went above and beyond taking care of our kitty Maisie! Not only did he spend quality time with her, he also gave us the peace of mind as a trusted friend. On top of being a high quality cat whisperer, Philip helped trouble shoot a problem we had at the apartment and went above and beyond, fixing the issue with a great attitude. Would highly recommend Philip to anyone who needs a cat sitter!

Frequently Asked Questions

Orlando cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
