Emily

Amanda is a truly wonderful cat sitter. She is warm, attentive, and incredibly patient with cats of all personalities. My cat can be shy with new people, but he felt comfortable with her right away because of her calm and gentle approach. She takes the time to understand each cat’s needs and makes sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. One thing that really sets Amanda apart is her experience with cat health care. She is very comfortable administering medications, including pills, liquid meds, and syringes. She also has experience giving insulin shots to diabetic cats and administering subcutaneous fluids for cats with kidney issues or dehydration. Knowing she can handle complex medical needs with confidence and care gives me total peace of mind when I’m away. Amanda is reliable, communicative, and treats every cat like her own. She always sends thoughtful updates and photos that show how happy and relaxed my cat is with her. I highly recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a sitter who will go above and beyond to provide excellent, loving care.

Amanda is an incredible cat sitter and an awesome cat parent. She’s been owner to a diabetic senior cat so she’s experienced with issuing medication and making sure she’s providing felines with the best care. My cat is a beast and hates people but Amanda is incredible at accommodating her special temperament. She makes sure my baby is fed and played with when I’m out of town, even at the expense of her shoes (my cat loves attacking feet). You couldn’t ask for a better kitty care taker!

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.
