Learn More About Autumn

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

I’ve taken care of cats all my life, but I’ve been pet sitting others’ cats for about 7 years. I started out by watching a coworker’s cats when they went on vacation. I ended up with a few clients through word of mouth. Then I ended up joining Rover as a side gig while I worked in corporate, but I absolutely loved pet sitting. I quit corporate about six months ago to pursue pet sitting full time. I started my own business, got business insurance and some formal training and certifications. I’ve taken care of many cats over the years and while I watch all animals, cats are my preferred clients. I’ve taken care of friendly cats, shy cats, feral cats, and special needs and elderly cats. I have given cats oral medicine, and have injected fluids. I’m also a volunteer at Friends of Strays cat shelter!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have three kitties, all rescues. I have Allura, who was a pregnant stray I took in, her former kitten (now adult), Ares, and a former stray I rescued named Athena. My roommate also has two cats, they are named Oliver and Mimi.

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

I would ALWAYS recommend a meet and greet before hiring a sitter. Someone might be good with dogs, but not cats. Or someone might be good with cats, but they aren’t reliable. It’s important to built trust with cats AND be a reliable sitter, and that combo can be hard to find. The customer should watch how the sitter interacts with the cat. The sitter should allow the cat to come to them on their own terms whenever possible (sometimes this may not be possible for ones who are extremely shy but need meds). They should never be loud, have quick, sudden movements, or aggressively force the kitties into interactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Saint Petersburg cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
