Cat Sitting in Chicago, IL

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable cat sitter who truly understands that every cat has their own personality, routine, and preferences. I love taking the time to get to know each cat so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their humans are away.

Hi! I’m a caring and reliable cat sitter who truly understands that every cat has their own personality, routine, and preferences. I love taking the time to get to know each cat so they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their humans are away.

I’m very attentive to the little details—making sure feeding schedules are followed, litter boxes stay clean, medications (if needed) are given correctly, and your cat’s behavior and mood are closely monitored. Whether your cat loves to play, cuddle, or just have quiet company, I adjust my care to what makes them feel most at ease.

I know how important consistency is for cats, and I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own. You can count on me to provide thoughtful updates and dependable care so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands.

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

I have been cat sitting for friends and family for many years and love it! I never thought I’d be a crazy cat lady…but here we are! 😹

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to interact with all their different personalities and of course playing, petting, and if I’m lucky…cuddling with the fur babies!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Carmela, 5 (aka mamas), a tuxedo tortie who’s a little skittish due to her rough start on the street. She loves head scratches and pets while she eats. Oscar, 3 (aka buddy), gray tuxedo. From runt of the litter to my healthy big boy. He loves playing, watching cat TV, and snuggling with mom at bedtime.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I usually stay local during holidays.


Medication Experience:

Marisol was the best and will absolutely be requesting her in the future. She somehow got my very shy kitty to come out of her kennel on day 1 for all the love and scritches, and I am not exaggerating when I say my cat does that for NOBODY. She took wonderful care of the kitty and I came back to a very tidy home with a very happy kitty, and eased all the anxiety I had about leaving my kitty alone. Can’t recommend enough!

Marisol took such good care of our boys while we were gone. One of our boys needs multiple medications and Marisol handled it with ease. She kept us well informed as to what was going on and sent pictures and videos after each visit. I highly recommend Marisol!

Marisol took really great care of our cats!! One of them is very shy, and Marisol was so patient & gentle with her that she got very comfortable & stopped hiding! Marisol’s communication is great; she sent lots of pictures & I felt very comfortable having her take care of our kitties. Would definitely recommend her!

Marisol was so warm and caring for our cats. She followed our instructions and kept us in the loop on how our kitties were doing and sent lots of pictures while we were away. I felt I could trust her and would totally have her watch them again.

Marisol did a great job for us. She clearly loves cats. It was wonderful to get her pics and videos of our babies while we were away and we could rest easy and not worry about them. We came home to happy cats. We will definitely hire Marisol again.

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.

Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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!
