I'm Marisa | Cat Sitting in Tampa, FL

Hi, and welcome to Sassy Cat Concierge! Having owned multiple cats consecutively since I was 6 years old, I have learned much on how to be an exemplar cat guardian! I am currently a guardian to a rescued feral cat that I have named Lucy. As I work from home doing Telepharmacy, this gives me a little extra time to work with Lucy on becoming more domesticated. The following are just a few reasons I could be the most purrfect cat sitter for your feline!: - One must always jump to your cats every demand....as Felis catus are descendant from ancient and royal lines. This makes purrfect sense! - Never tell your cat no, …why would one? Cats are always right, even if they are knocking things off a table or dresser, or using your favorite chair as a scratching post! - Cats should always be given their own luxurious bed to sleep in, (even if it is your actual bed) and it should be kept clean at all times, ... remove cat fur, shed nails, and occasional fur ball. - Litter boxes must be kept in a place that kitty prefers it to be, even if, it is in the middle of your dinning room. (Its the cats prerogative) Boxes should be kept clean at all times, as well as the overall environment. -...

Learn More About Marisa

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

I have cat sit for friends, family, and co-workers on and off for about 20 years. I love getting to meet new cats and learning all about them. Cat personalities can definitely vary, and can be challenging to learn their quirks. - but, also very rewarding when the sweet kitty gives you a slow blink💜

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Cats can have widely varying personalities. It can be challenging to learn all the kitties quirks…. But also very rewarding when the kitty finally gives you a slow blink💜 Gaining a super shy cats trust is also rewarding, no matter how long it takes.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have one cat named Lucy. She came into my life 2 weeks after my 21 year old cat Holly died in 2023. I kept seeing a cat, covered in weeping sores run across my yard. I trapped her, and took her to the humane society for treatment. The vet was not sure if her fur would grow back from the massive weeping sores……but after several months and medication , her fur came back! Lucy has the TNR (trap, neuter, release) ear cut to identify that she has at sometime been caught, spay, and given rabies shot. For the last year I have been working with this older cat to domesticate her. Lucy has definitely taught me lot! I thought domesticating a feral cat would be quick and easy…..Lucy reminds me that is not true in her case!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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.
