My Clients Call Me The Cat Nanny

I'm Jenna

Cat Sitting in Sanford, FL

What can I say, my passion for all things cat started as a child and has grown to be stronger than ever. I have exclusively been a cat owner my whole life; there has never been a time where I haven't had at least two cats in my home! Each of my cats, those here with me now and those who have passed on, have imprinted on my heart and taught me such valuable lessons for their care. I've considered it an absolute honor to be apart of my cat's lives, as well as the lives of my clients!

My biggest asset to you? l am certified by the American Red Cross to administer Feline CPR and First Aid as of April 2025. I'm also well-connected with all urgent and emergency veterinary clinics in the Central Florida area. If the unthinkable happens, you can rest assured that I can administer life-saving treatment and know where to take your beloved cat to receive the top emergency care in the area, with no hesitation.

I am trained and experienced in administering medications, pills, and performing full health and wellness checks...

My biggest asset to you? l am certified by the American Red Cross to administer Feline CPR and First Aid as of April 2025. I'm also well-connected with all urgent and emergency veterinary clinics in the Central Florida area. If the unthinkable happens, you can rest assured that I can administer life-saving treatment and know where to take your beloved cat to receive the top emergency care in the area, with no hesitation.

I am trained and experienced in administering medications, pills, and performing full health and wellness checks. While I do not have experience with SubQ fluids or inhalers, I am happy to learn with the right owner and cat if your kitty's medical needs require it. I love every life stage of cat - from crazy kittens to super seniors! While care for cats at every age is important, there is a special place in my heart for providing the utmost quality care for senior and special needs cats. I have missed out on my fair share of life events and family vacations due to a lack of available and qualified sitters for my senior cats, and I've made it my mission to assist in filling that need for others. Don't get me wrong, though, I love my clients of all ages and breeds, so please do not hesitate to reach out!

On the day-to-day, there's nothing I can't do. Scooping litter boxes, scheduled feeding, brushing, nail trimming, you name it, I can do it! I'll even deep clean your cat water fountain for you. I also understand the importance of play time, so if your kitty wants some daily exercise and fun, I love sticking around and engaging with them for playtime!

No mess big or small intimidates me. Accidents happen, and our pets get sick. If there's a tummy ache or potty troubles, I am always happy to clean up the mess and keep your home in tiptop shape while you're away.

I would consider it an honor to care for your kitty in your absence. I love and care for all cats as my own, as I would want mine to be treated when I'm not there to care for them. I'd love to connect with you to learn more about your cat sitting needs, after all, that's why they call me The Cat Nanny!

Learn More About Jenna

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

I've been doing this for 10+ years. It's in my blood! I started out with neighbor's kitties, networked my way through the Sanford/Lake Mary area, and have found myself on Meowtel trying to help kitties and their parents every day!

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

My best advice? The sitter must click with the cat as much as they click with you. Humans are social beings, but we forget that the kitty is the beneficiary of our relationship. No matter if it's me or another sitter, never underestimate how your cat feels about their potential sitter. Make sure the kitty likes them just as much as you do! Read their body language, gauge their interaction levels, and trust their instinct on who is the right fit to care for them in your absense. It will help you and your cat in the long run!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes I am! I do not travel during the holiday season, and love to be able to take the pressure of the holiday festivities by being an available sitter for your kitties!

What is your favorite cat toy?

A great friend of mine makes these awesome hand-sewn puzzle mats. So I have to say that is my favorite!

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

Cats, like people, have boundaries that must be respected. My job is to keep the environment in the home as stress-free as possible for your cat(s) in your absence. While I always love to give kitties the attention they deserve, if petting an anxious kitty is too much for them, I never force the issue. Instead, I choose to have conversation with them! I'll talk to them, say their name, all in a calming voice so they know I am not a threat. I find that my timid kitties really enjoy it, they never feel left out while respecting the boundaries they gave me to stay in their comfort zone. It's a win-win!

Jenna is an extremely attentive, conscientious and caring cat sitter! She took the time to meet my cat and I to overview my cat’s needs and care prior to our reservation. She also sent me frequent updates during the reservation, including photos and videos of my cat. She kept me at-ease, and I was fully confident that my cat was well taken care of during my absence. I HIGHLY recommend Jenna!

Jenna is a wonderful pet sitter. She went above and beyond to look after my two cats and the house while I was away for three weeks. She has amazing skills with cats (she managed to make herself accepted by my super shy cat!), is attentive to details, communicates well and is very kind. Jenna: so glad I found 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.

Sanford cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
