Hello fellow cat lovers! My name is Elisabeth and I can't wait to help you with all your cat-related needs! I've been a cat lover all my life (forever missing my childhood tuxedo kitty!) and since living in Chicago, I've fostered multiple cats through PAWS, with experience ranging from older cats to kittens.

My skills include the basic neccessities such as feeding, litter box cleaning, socialization, and lots of affection/snuggles if your cat is comfortable! Whether your cat is outgoing or more on the shy side, I approach each one with patience and respect to build comfortability and trust. My number one priority is to make sure your cat feels safe and taken care of while you're away!

I also have experience with administering oral medications if need be. I would also love to send you picture and video updates of your cats to make the time away less stressful!

I'm looking forward to meeting you and your purrfect companions!

Learn More About Elisabeth

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

I've fostered cats through PAWS Chicago since 2022 and have experience with all types of cats from older seniors to kittens. I have also cat sat for numerous friends over the years!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The cats of course and the feeling of offering help to others! It gives me great joy to be able to provide care to your cat(s) while you're away and ease the experience of travel, knowing that your feline friend is well-taken care of.

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

I follow any rules set out for me by the cat owner to ensure the safety of the cats and the home. I make sure to take caution when entering/exiting the home in case we have any escape artists! When inside, I make sure to check for any part of the home that might be a danger to your cat(s) such as closed doors or knocked over objects.

Elisabeth did a great job checking in on our cat Lola during our extended trip. She let us know promptly each time she got there and left, and sent pictures. I look forward to booking with Elisabeth again in the future!

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!
