Sylvia was very nice and attentive during the meet and greet. She sent an update and pictures during each visit. My shy kitty came out for every visit. She is a great sitter!

Sylvia was great! Took great care of our cat while we were gone over Thanksgiving, with really great communication. I'd absolutely trust her to sit for us any time!

Sylvia was very friendly during the initial walkthrough and made sure to note all of the little quirks about feeding and playing with my two cats. I received daily updates and photos from her which put my mind at ease knowing my cats were well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Sylvia, and will request her in the future!

Sylvia was wonderful! My 2 kitties can be very needy in their own ways and they were quick to get in her lap and ask for belly rubs. She followed my directions perfectly and communication was excellent throughout the week. Thank you again, Sylvia!!

I was pleased with the care Sylvia provided for my two cats. She followed all instructions and sent me daily reports with pictures! She also went the extra mile and brought in some packages from the lobby of my building into my apartment. Thank you, Sylvia!

Sylvia was a great sitter for my little Dave while I was out of town. In addition to all the kitty duties (incl. cleaning the box) she even watered my plants! Sylvia is very responsive. Grateful for the updates from her along the way. Would definitely recommend.

Frequently Asked Questions
Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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. Meowtel sitters 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 we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 will include 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. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
