I will follow your instructions carefully, and along with my extensive veterinary knowledge, can ensure that the health and safety of your fur fam are top priorities. Knowing the depths we can miss our pet, I will communicate via text, sending photos and updates daily.
My schedule is flexible providing the ability for the availability of same day cat sitting, emergency care, as well as long term pet care. Available for multiple daily drop ins, weekly, and monthly care, or we can customize a personalized care plan special for your needs.
I have over two decades of experience in conventional and holistic veterinary medicine, fear free certification, training in animal massage, certified in animal CPR, and passionate about hospice and end of life transition. Your cat's behavior at home, routine, schedule, and health history are learned and taken into consideration by me at each visit.

I had really great experience with Nicole. She came twice a day to administer insulin shots to one of my cats. She was on time took care of both my cats. Everything went smoothly. She was responsive, attentive, and very kind and I felt at ease during my vacation time. I’m glad I found her here.

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.
Sarasota cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
