Daniella's Kitty Care

I'm Daniella

Cat Sitting in Chicago, IL

My name is Daniella, and I have been a certified cat mommy for more than 15 years. Kitties are the best, and each one is unique. Some are shy. Some are playful. Some are little love bugs, and some let you know that you’re just there to serve them. No matter what personality a kitty has, they are all adorable and deserve the best life possible that you can give them. Just ask our furry little nugget, Tommy. He keeps us on our toes, but we wouldn’t have it any other way!

I have successfully completed Pet First Aid and CPR from the Anti-Cruelty Society and have a good relationship with primary care and emergency vets who specialize in kitty care.

I work from home part-time as a freelance social media marketer, so my schedule is flexible. I have a car and will visit your little love bug(s) during daylight hours.

The health and safety of you and your family are very important to me, so I will adhere to all the latest health and safety protocols and defer to your preferences.

Daniella was very patient with my sassy boy cat. She was able to work with him and feed him in a kind way, even when he was not kind back to her. Then my easy chill cat loved snuggling and playing with her. I greatly appreciate Daniella.

Daniela was fantastic with our skittish cats. She showed them so much patience and kindness while we were gone. We have never used a service like this before, and we feel very fortunate to have had such a good experience. We would love to hire her for future trips and highly recommend her for others.

Daniella was fantastic without cat Norman. I was in a rush to get 2 kids out the door and fully packed for a week long trip. As you can guess, there were a few things that were non car related that Daniella was able to take care for us and put our mind at ease. I highly recommend her services!

Daniella is great. She watched our two kitties twice and they love her. I can tell because she sent little videos and I could see how warm they are with her. she also answered every single text right away and hunted down my shy kitty who was hiding when I was worried about her health a bit. and she watered my flowers too. I felt assured all was well at home with Daniella taking care of things.

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 $29.00. 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!
