I'm Nicole | Cat Sitting in Evanston, IL

Meow there! My name is Nicole, and I have owned and worked with cats all my life. Growing up, in my family we had about 10+ cats in my immediate family. I loved helping out with the kitties and also playing with them all day. For the past 2 years, my grandmother has also raised several barn cats and I have always helped out with those babies. I currently am the proud mother of Maple and Misu, 2 stray cats I brought in and have loved ever since. After losing my sweet baby Belle this year, I knew I wanted to save some more babies. Belle also passed with FelV- I am very familiar with FelV positive cats. I always include in my updates to you: the weather for the day, water/food/litter box update, in...

Learn More About Nicole

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

I have 5+ years of professional cat sitting experience. I do it all for the babies that I am watching- playtime, cuddle time, birding watching time, and give you the confidence to leave your fur babies, knowing they are in the best care :)

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 kitties- Maple and Mr Mans. We got our babies on Halloween of 2023. They were street cats who were super sweet- they got taken in by a neighbor who we got in contact with and now they are my children!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I am almost an expert at this- my first cat, Belle, who was horribly abused was very nervous when she was first adopted. Honestly the best thing I think one could to is to be patient and never force anything. I give the more anxious kitties time to warm up and space. Usually I will sit near them and let them start getting use to my smell and then work forward from there!

Nicole does a great job taking care of our two cats, giving detailed updates and photos. She also managed to charm our extremely antisocial orange tabby.

Nicole is great. This is the second time she sat for me and I will use her again, is she's available. From the notes and pictures she left, it's clear my cats remembered her and they give her 5 stars.

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $32.00. 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.
