Learn More About Roos

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

I have been a catsitter since September '23 and I love it. I enjoy meeting the cat owner during the meet and greet and introducing myself. The very best part is making sure the cat gets all the love they deserve, cuddling, playing and taking care of. The hardest part of the job is saying goodbye.

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

I come over for a Meet & Greet to meet the cat, the cat owner and introduce myself. During this meeting, I go over the cat's routine and like to hear background information of the cat. I also ask about wishes and special instructions that will allow me to provide the best care for the cat. I ask for a phone number so I can quickly and easily contact the owner and send updates with (lots of!) photos and videos during each visit.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am pretty flexible and almost every holiday available.

I had a family emergency and without hesitation Roos took a last minute reservation and went so above and beyond to give me peace while I spent time with my family. She’s more than a great cat sitter, she’s a great human!!

We have asked Roos to sit for our kitties a few times now, whenever we go out of town-and as usual, she does a fabulous job!! She goes above and beyond, and my cats absolutely love her!!! My usually shy-with-strangers boy even rolled on his back and showed him her belly…which is unheard of with anyone besides me and my husband! We love traveling, but the huge downside has always been leaving the cats. With Roos as our cat sitter, it brings back a sense of ease and enjoyment to our traveling, and I know our kitties are in the best hands! Thank you, Roos!!

Roos was absolutely the best sitter. I was very nervous leaving my 6 month kitten alone, especially since the little guy had Giardia and needed medication. Roos went above and beyond and was able to administer his medication. She provided countless updates and reassured me a lot.

Shy Greyson appears for his friend Roos who takes good care of him and updates me on how he is doing. It makes both of us happy we can rely on Roos particularly since Greyson is fearful of anything outside his routine. Roos has taken time to make friends with Greyson and he responds by making an appearance rather than hiding under the bed which he does with others.

Roos was amazing with our kitties as we expected! This was our second time booking with Roos and we wouldn’t trust our cats with anyone else while we’re away! We’re a bit of anxious cat parents you could say😅 and Roos calms our anxieties with her reassuring updates and fantastic videos/photos! We came home to happy kitties who I’m sure were wishing it was Roos walking through the door to come play with them. You’re making a great choice when booking with Roos!

Anneroos did an amazing job! She kept us updated with numerous photos and videos of our cat throughout our time away. Even our usually shy cat warmed up to her quickly. Anneroos followed all of our care instructions perfectly. She even took the time to play with our cat and made sure he was happy and comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and will definitely be hiring her again in the future.

We love Roos!! Enough positive words cannot be said! From the meet and greet to the visits and updates, Roos was fabulous! My husband and I are those crazy cat parents and treat our kitties like our babies. The thought of leaving them for a week stressed us out…but that was all before we met Roos! Roos made us feel reassured and at ease from the beginning. We could not get enough of the fantastic photos and videos she sent us throughout the trip!! This trip was actually for me and my husband’s wedding so while we already had so many things on our plate to stress about, the kitties weren’t one with Roos watching over them. We knew they were getting great care! I think they were actually a little bummed when it was us who walked through the door and not Roos 😂Book Roos and you (and your kitties) will not be disappointed 💕😊

Roos took great care of my cat. She did all the essentials (cleaning litterbox, checking food/water) and spent some time playing with her. I felt a bit nervous to trust someone new with keys to my place while I was away, but Roos had proven very trustworthy. Next time I'm out of town I'll be sure to call her again.

I cannot recommend Anneroos enough! she is so kind and sweet, my babies loved her. I’ve tried various cat sitters and sadly had to cancel some mid reservation but Anneroos is honestly top notch. she not only did everything I asked but also went the extra step and did things that weren’t expected of her. she often stayed longer and just really engaged with my babies , played, cuddled. she also sent tons of sweet updates and photos / videos. she made me feel so much less guilty for leaving! can’t recommend her enough ❤️

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.
