Cat Sitting in Addison, IL

Hi! My name is Gabby Juskey and would love to help take care of your fluffy friends. I grew up with cats my whole life and absolutely adore them! At the moment, I have four girls at my parents house named Pandora, Lilith, Harpurr, and Rhea. They all have such unique personalities that always makes me and my family laugh and smile. After moving out a few years ago, my boyfriend and I were thinking about getting an animal as well. Because of unfortunate circumstances, we just recently took in a friends 1 year old tabby named Salem. Even though she’s still young, she is such a lover and is a very good girl. She loves her food and surprisingly likes getting in the shower with you? There’s never a dull moment with her around.

Hi! My name is Gabby Juskey and would love to help take care of your fluffy friends. I grew up with cats my whole life and absolutely adore them! At the moment, I have four girls at my parents house named Pandora, Lilith, Harpurr, and Rhea. They all have such unique personalities that always makes me and my family laugh and smile. After moving out a few years ago, my boyfriend and I were thinking about getting an animal as well. Because of unfortunate circumstances, we just recently took in a friends 1 year old tabby named Salem. Even though she’s still young, she is such a lover and is a very good girl. She loves her food and surprisingly likes getting in the shower with you? There’s never a dull moment with her around.

I graduated from Elmhurst University in 2023 with a degree in general music and plan on continuing my education to get a masters in music education! At the moment, I am also teaching voice, piano, drums, guitar, ukulele, and a few group classes at Bach to Rock music school in Arlington Heights. I have a fairly flexible schedule and am very easy going. Though I eventually want to find a full time music teaching job, taking care of feline friends would be like a dream to me.

With having cats for as long as I can remember, I have learned how to take care of them and understand their needs. Some of my previous cats have had some health issues (kidney disease, IBS, anxiety, gum/teeth issues) and have learned how to provide for them. I have learned how to give cats fluids and medication to help with these types of ailments. Seeing and caring for fur babies always brings me happiness and stress relief.

Not only am I a musician, but I love to craft. Crocheting is my main hobby that I picked up years ago, but I enjoy knitting and tie dying as well. Because of this, I love making kitty toys! Also, when I am crocheting, I make sure the cats are safe around the yarn, while still letting them have some fun.

I hope your furry friends find comfort and companionship with me and help ease your mind when it comes to looking after them while you’re away😸

This was our second time using Gabby and we will use her again! She takes the best care of our two boys 🐈 🐈‍⬛. She sends pictures and gives very detailed updates of each visit (our cats literally greet her at the door in her pics 😻). we trust her in our home and would highly recommend Gabby for your fur family needs.

Gabrielle was fantastic in caring for our cats while we were out of town. I have a 10 year old with kidney failure who needs subcutaneous fluids and a daily pill, and Gabrielle handled this tremendously well. There was an issue with Gabrielle getting in to our home and she handled this quite well with her communication and quick action and was ultimately able to resolve the issue no problem. When we got home, our pets were in great condition and had clearly been well cared for. We really appreciate Gabrielle and Meowtel and would be thrilled to work with her again. She was wonderful!

Gabby did a great job and even went above and beyond by quietly sitting in our living room hoping to coax our scaredy cats out for some love and attention. We will definitely book her again!

Gabrielle is the best! We’ve hired her more than once, and will continue to do so, as she’s great with the cats, sends updates with pictures, and always spends time with them too to make sure they’re happy and get some play time.

Gabby was amazing! This was the first time I had to leave my little guys with a sitter instead of friends and she was incredible! Great photos and updates! They clearly were super comfortable with her and my shier guy even sat in her lap! Loved the photos of them running around the apartment with their favorite wand toy! They were happy and healthy when I got back and clearly got lots of love and head pets while I was away! Will absolutely ask Gabby to help out again!

Gabrielle is great. This was by far the longest I have been away from my fur daughter after we both had a very difficult past few years with relocating a million times whether we wanted to or not. But Emory clearly loved seeing Gabrielle and I have a few awesome pictures saved now. She provided updates immediately and let me know about Emory’s little skin condition (which I obsess over and is a bit of a mystery to her vets). Cat people know cat people. Very anxiety relieving. Can’t thank her enough.

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.

Addison cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
