I'm Samantha
Cat Sitting in Palm Bay, FL
I’m a calm and patient person, which seems to make cats fee... Hi, I’m Sam! I absolutely love cats and have even volunteered at the Humane Society of South Brevard, a cat-only shelter. I spent my time there caring for the kitties, cleaning up after them, and of course giving them lots of love and playtime once the work was done.
I’m a calm and patient person, which seems to make cats feel comfortable around me. I always let them come to me on their own terms. Earning their trust is the best part! I also like to keep their routines as normal as possible, so if you leave me clear notes on feeding and care, I’ll follow them exactly. My goal is to make sure your cats feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.
Learn More About Samantha
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Meeting the cats personalities. I have met different personalities from shy and timid to chaotic and hyper. I love all of them.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes, I myself have cats. I have 1. Buddy came to our door as a dumped kitty in his teens, around 2015. He told us he’s living here and we don’t have a say! My other cat was put down in June. A medium haired tuxedo girl named Sugar. Sugar was 15 years old. I had her since June of 2010, when she was just a kitten. She passed of seizures and old age.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes. My family aren’t so big about holidays so I’m usually free and willing to take care of your cats!
What is your favorite cat toy?
As someone who’s had cats for years, I’ve realized the best toys aren’t the fancy ones from the store. They’re the random things lying around your house. Kittens love everything at first, but grown-up cats usually couldn’t care less about those pricey toys. Hand them a shoelace, though, and suddenly it’s the best thing ever.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I usually let them approach me. I sit down so my height isn’t a scary thing to them. I put out my hands to let them sniff me if they please. I understand that some cats don’t want to be alone but also don’t want to be touched. They are the dominant ones so they feel safe.

Meowtel is a great option if you have to leave your furry loved one alone for a few days. My sitter, Samantha, was very caring and conscientious. She not only fed my kitty and changed his litter, but sent me photos and updates each day.

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.
Palm Bay cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $23.00. 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!
