I am so happy to write a glowing review for Jessica! I first had the pleasure of supervising Jessica during her Master's practical hours at my in-home daycare. Right away, I could see she was an incredible employee—so professional, dedicated, and just wonderful with all the kids. But what truly stood out to me was her compassion for animals. My home is busy; we have three dogs and one cat, and Jessica always included feeding them as part of her routine. I watched her form an immediate, loving bond with our pets. It was clear she treated them with the same kindness and responsibility she showed the children. Because I saw how responsible and genuinely caring she was, I continued to rely on Jessica for pet-sitting over the entire following year! She regularly cat-sat and dog-sat for me whenever I went on vacations or traveled out of town. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my furry family was in her dependable and loving hands. I highly recommend Jessica to be your cat-sitter. She is trustworthy, responsible, and will shower your pet with the love and attention they deserve!

I've known Jessica for a while now; we actually went to school together! But our paths crossed again when we ended up working at the same Law Firm. While we worked together, I saw firsthand her professional dedication. Jessica is incredibly dependable, meticulous, and trustworthy—all qualities you want in someone looking after your home and, most importantly, your cat! Knowing how reliable she was, I asked her to start cat-sitting for me when I was out of town, and she quickly became my go-to person. Even though she's now gone back to school for her Master's and we don't work together anymore, she still regularly comes over to cat-sit my beloved furry friend. Jessica is always great about sending updates and ensuring my cat is happy and well-cared for. I always feel completely secure leaving my cat with her. She treats my pet like her own! If you're looking for someone professional, completely reliable, and full of genuine love for cats, I highly recommend Jessica!

Frequently Asked Questions
Arlington Heights cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.
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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
