Cat Sitting in Tampa, FL

I know firsthand how much personality, routine, and reassurance cats need when their parents are away — and how much peace of mind a trustworthy sitter can bring.
When I visit, I take time to really connect: gentle play, quiet cuddle time if that's their style, fresh food and water, and a clean litter box every visit. I'm patient with shy or anxious cats and happy to follow whatever routine keeps your kitty comfortable. I'll send photo updates so you can relax knowing your cat is safe while you're gone.
I'm currently a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I'm able to offer consistent, reliable visits at the times that work best for you.
Learn More About Heather Dan-Vy
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have two tuxedo boy cats, Hazel (3) and Zorro (1). I adopted them both from the same mom, but different litter. They are best buds!
What is your favorite cat toy?
My favorite cat toy is one that is very interactive. I like the cat wands with teasers on them where cats can chase and play. My cats also love bubbles from the bubble machine!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I move slowly, let them come to me on their own terms, and never force interaction — sometimes the best care is just quietly tending to food, water, and litter while respecting their personal space.

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.
Tampa 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 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 Meet & Greet!
