I'm Damian

Cat Sitting in Winter Park, FL

My name is Damian, I’m a biology teacher and the dad of two wonderful kitties, Bilbo and Merlin. I’ve had them for 5+ years since they were kittens so I’m experienced in kitten care and adult cat care. I love every cat that I meet and have helped friends and students with cat care and advice. Since staring Meowtel I’ve cared for cats from Kitten to 20 years old!

My name is Damian, I’m a biology teacher and the dad of two wonderful kitties, Bilbo and Merlin. I’ve had them for 5+ years since they were kittens so I’m experienced in kitten care and adult cat care. I love every cat that I meet and have helped friends and students with cat care and advice. Since staring Meowtel I’ve cared for cats from Kitten to 20 years old!

When it comes to cat sitting I like to give cats their space and let them warm up to me on their own terms. This approach has helped me become best buds with plenty of cats, giving them chin scratches and playing together in no time! I’m consistent with routines and understand how important your cats are to you so they will be my top priority.

As a Biology teacher, out of school hours, I have a whole bunch of time to care for your pet. I’m reliable, polite and ready to be helpful to you and your cats!

Learn More About Damian

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new people and new cats, it’s my favorite part of cat sitting. Building community with pet parents is such a fantastic experience and I love the experiences that this affords me.

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

It’s important to pick someone who shares a similar vibe with your cat. My vibe is pretty relaxed which is great for watching birds out the window or just hanging out on the couch. That being said when my cats are ready to play I light up with energy to match them to get the most out of play time.

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

I’m super cautious when it comes to safety and security of cats and the home while cat sitting. Double and triple checking locks on doors and windows, outlets are safe and there’s nothing hazardous out that could hurt the cats is super important. I know my cats usually have places they sit when I’m about to leave for work so just checking that they are in those places and keeping in eye on them during the check in times are just some examples of how I ensure their safety.

My 3 cats are very averse to strangers. They used to be feral so they hide (extremely well). Damian was able to get one of my girls to come out of hiding, which is amazing. I think he has a calming presence which is great if you have shy cats. He fed them wet food and cleaned up after himself. No notes.

Damian has cared for Mimi twice now, and he continues to do an exceptional job. Mimi is an older cat who is very selective with people and can easily become irritated around someone new, but with Damian it was the complete opposite. From day one, she was comfortable with him as if she had known him forever. Damian is incredibly attentive to details, he makes sure she’s fed, gets her supplements, has a clean litter box, and keeps her space tidy. He also takes the time to play with her and keep her engaged. I really appreciate how he always keeps me updated from the moment he arrives until he leaves, sending photos and notes about how she’s doing. I trust him fully with Mimi’s care, and without a doubt I would choose him again every time. Mimi will definitely miss him!

Damian was great with my babies. He's truly a cat person, and even my shy guy Louis warmed up to him immediately. He sent a ton of photos and videos, and the kitties got plenty of playtime and care. Their spaces were tidy when I came home, maybe cleaner than I left them. It was such a relief to see them happy while I was away.

Damian was an excellent sitter for my cat Mimi. He followed all instructions carefully—fed her as directed, cleaned her litter box, and kept the surrounding area tidy. He was very gentle and affectionate with Mimi, even played with her and kept her company. Mimi is 15 years old and usually doesn’t trust strangers easily, she tends to hide or act shy, but from the very first moment she met Damian, she felt comfortable and at ease. I could tell she really enjoyed his company. It gave me a peqce of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I will definitely choose Damian again in the future. Thank you for taking such great care of my girl!

I am so happy that we found Damian to watch our two cats! He visited our house before our vacation to meet the boys, and bonded with them immediately. He sent pictures and videos each day that he dropped in, took care of their food, water and litter box and spent a long time playing with them. I will definitely hire Damian again!

Damian did a great job taking care of our senior kitty. He followed instructions perfectly and kept her company. also sent pictures of her doing her favorite activities. Thanks so much. We were able to enjoy our vacation she was being taken care of in her own home.

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.

Winter Park cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
