Learn More About Heather

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

I've grown up around cats and dogs and I've watched my friends and family's animals for more than 20 years

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love being able to give your fur babies the love and attention they crave while you're away. I take pride in making sure their needs are fully met—whether that means feeding, brushing, snuggling, playing, or simply keeping them company. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

One of my favorite cat sitting experiences was with a senior cat who needed a little extra TLC—daily medications, special meals, and lots of gentle affection. Over the course of the reservation, she went from hiding under the bed to greeting me at the door and curling up in my lap. It was incredibly rewarding to see her grow comfortable and trust me. Moments like that remind me why I love what I do—earning a cat’s trust is truly special

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes, I’m a proud cat parent myself! Over the years, I’ve cared for cats with a range of medical needs. One of our cats (Yoda) had pancreatitis and required multiple wet food meals a day, oral chemo pills, and topical medications. Our sweet Russian Blue (Princess Leia) lived to be 16 before passing from chronic kidney disease, and she also needed subcutaneous fluids, frequent wet meals, and topical treatments. After their passing, we recently adopted two wonderful siblings from a local shelter—Mando and Bo-Katan—who are keeping our home lively and full of love. Our local veterinarian, Dr Schrank, at West Orange Veterinary is one of my references. We also highly recommend All4Pets 24HR emergency.

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

Find someone that "checks the boxes." Will this person treat our pet like family? Do you have a special needs kitty? How much does cat behavior experience mean to you? Does the pet sitter have cats themselves, do those cats look happy?

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

My typical process begins with scheduling an in-home or virtual 'meet and greet' to get to know you and your cat(s). During this meeting, we’ll review all the important details—what to expect during my visits, your pet’s specific needs, and any preferences or routines you’d like me to follow. This helps ensure your cat receives the best possible care and that you feel confident and comfortable with my services

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Ensuring the safety and security of both your cat and your home is a top priority for me. I follow all care instructions closely, double-check doors, windows, and litter areas during each visit, and make sure your cat is safe and accounted for before I leave. I’m also respectful of your home—securing it properly after each visit and keeping everything as you left it. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates to give you peace of mind while you’re away

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available on certain holidays, depending on my schedule. The more advance notice you can provide, the better the chances I’ll be able to accommodate your needs before any personal plans are made

What is your favorite cat toy?

One of my favorite cat toys is the interactive wand toy—especially ones with feathers or bells. They’re great for engaging cats in play, helping them get exercise, and strengthening the bond between us. It’s always fun to see each cat’s unique hunting style come out during playtime

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

When caring for timid or anxious cats, I always take a calm, patient, and respectful approach. I give them space to adjust at their own pace and avoid forcing interaction. I use quiet movements, soothing tones, and positive reinforcement to help build trust over time. My goal is to create a safe, stress-free environment where they feel comfortable and secure

Heather is a fantastic cat sitter. She is friendly, punctual, relatable and dependable. She treats our cats as if they were her own. Not afraid to play with them or provide meds to them. I use her all the time exclusively and don't plan to change. Best cat nanny ever!

Frequently Asked Questions

Winter Garden cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
