Learn More About Rae

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes, she’s an orange tabby named Mimi. She’s curious, loving, and a little goofy. We adopted her from the shelter, and we estimate she’s about 3 years old.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I’m happy to have a virtual meeting before the visit. I’ll maintain close communication with the cat parents to learn about their cat and any special instructions. If possible, I like to arrive a little early the first time for a quick walkthrough with the cat parent to make sure nothing is missed and to become familiar with the space.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I’ll be in the neighborhood during most holidays (Christmas, Thanksgiving etc) and I am usually available to provide help while you are away 😺

Rae has experience giving medication, handling shy or nervous cats, and keeping owners updated with thoughtful check-ins. She has a calm, reassuring presence that pets instantly warm up to, and she always treats them like her own. Anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and genuinely animal-loving sitter would be lucky to have Rae.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
