I'd Rather Hang Out With Your Cat

I'm Kori

Cat Sitting in Wesley Chapel, FL

Hi, I’m Kori! I’m a cat owner, lifelong animal lover, and someone who genuinely prefers hanging out with cats over most humans. Honestly, getting paid to do it feels a little suspiciously close to cheating the system.

I’m also an avid traveler, so I know what it’s like to be seven days into a trip and have a minor mental breakdown wondering if your cats are okay. Are they eating? Are they lonely? Did someone actually scoop the litter box?! I get it. I want you to enjoy your trip without spending half of it worrying about what’s happening at home...
Hi, I’m Kori! I’m a cat owner, lifelong animal lover, and someone who genuinely prefers hanging out with cats over most humans. Honestly, getting paid to do it feels a little suspiciously close to cheating the system.

I’m also an avid traveler, so I know what it’s like to be seven days into a trip and have a minor mental breakdown wondering if your cats are okay. Are they eating? Are they lonely? Did someone actually scoop the litter box?! I get it. I want you to enjoy your trip without spending half of it worrying about what’s happening at home.

I know every cat is different, and I’m happy to meet them wherever they are. I’ll follow their routine, keep their space clean, make sure they have fresh food and water, and actually spend time with them—not just check a box and leave. Playtime, cuddles, treats, or simply hanging out? I’m in.

You’ll also get photos and updates, because “your cat is fine” is technically an update, but it’s not exactly what I’d want to receive.

My goal is simple: your cat feels happy and cared for, your home is respected, and you get to relax knowing someone is genuinely paying attention. Plus, I get to hang out with cats. Everybody wins. 🐾

Learn More About Kori

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

Most of my cat-sitting experience has come from caring for the cats of friends and family, but I also have plenty of hands-on experience from having eight cats of my own over the years (not all at once—I’m not THAT crazy 😂). Between them, I’ve experienced a pretty wide range of personalities, preferences, routines, and needs firsthand.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Honestly? The cats themselves. I love getting to know their individual personalities and figuring out what makes each one happy. I especially enjoy the little moments—when a shy cat finally decides I’m trustworthy, a playful cat gets completely obsessed with a toy, or a cuddly cat decides it’s time for attention. I also love knowing that I’m giving both the cat and their person a little peace of mind while they’re away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have 3 kitties of my own, each with a very different personality: 🐾 Titan — 6: Confident, athletic, and affectionate. He’s always ready to be part of whatever is going on. 🐾 Atlas — 6: Titan’s littermate and his complete opposite. He’s a shy boy who takes a little time to warm up, but once he trusts you, he loves BIG. 🐾 Beans — 5: Our Velcro boy. We accidentally named him Beans after repeatedly calling him “just a little bean!” when he was a kitten. Apparently, we said it enough times that it became his name. He has never outgrown the need to be touching you at all times and considers personal space completely optional.

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.

Wesley Chapel 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 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!
