I'm Heather | Cat Sitting in Wesley Chapel, FL

Hello! My name is Heather, and I am a proud cat mom and sister. Yes, you read that right…cat sister. LOL! First, let me tell you about the kitties in the gallery. The calico kitty is Daphne, my fur-baby, and the brown tabby is Pinky, my cat sister. Daphne is a rescue who is the older and more chill of the two. She can be quite shy and timid, and once you have passed her kitty tests (that she only knows about) you will then be able to see this elusive feline. Seriously though, she went through some things before I got her and I don’t know what, but I know that I’m still earning her trust and I’m thankful for every day that I can make her life a better one. Pinky is my cat-sister (my mom’s cat), and much like Daphne, she is also a rescue; however, that is where things end. Pinky is significantly younger, loves to play ball, can be a vocal singer, and loves lap time and attention. You know you are doing right by her when the biscuit factory opens. As you can see, we have the ying and yang of kitties in my household. Now about me. I’m a U.S. Air Force Veteran where I served for 27 years in the career equivalent to that of Human Resources. I’ve always had cats in my life for as far back as I can remember which translates into well over 40 years of experience. My experience has come from not only caring for my own cats, but also from volunteering as a Cattery Assistant in various animal non-profi...

Learn More About Heather

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 kitties in my household, Daphne and Pinky. Daphne is my pandemic kitty who is a rescue that is shy and timid; however, once she knows you and feels as though she can trust you she will show her loving and playful self to you. She may even give you lap time, which speaks volumes coming from her. Pinky is my Mom's cat, who is also a rescue, she is the younger of our two girls and is loving and rambunctious.

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

Meet your sitter in person before you commit. This will allow you a chance to get a feel for the sitter as well as provide an introduction for your kitties.

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

Give the cat plenty of space and speak in a calming voice. It also helps to have their favorite treats or food available as well as any of their comfort items such as a blanket or something with the owners scent since that may help to alleviate their anxiety. As for a timid cat, you want to give space, speak in calm tones, no sudden or quick movements, and never make the cat feel trapped.

Responsible, high-energy caregiver that loves all animals but especially cats. She currently owns one cat and fosters another, but always has room to love on one (or three) more!

Frequently Asked Questions

Wesley Chapel cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. 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.
