I'm Roos | Cat Sitting in Chicago, IL

My name is Anneroos (call me Rose), and I have moved with my lovely cat Sammy (and husband) from the Netherlands to Chicago (May '23). I have had cats my entire life (almost 30 years). This particular one was rescued from the animal shelter, about 13 years ago. I love having her around, cuddling and playing with her. It makes our house feel like a home. There is no way of leaving the house without cuddles and goodbyes:) My main education is in childcare, in which I have been working for the last 11 years. Before that I worked part time taking care of elderly, so you could say that caring for other people (and animals) suits me well. I have mov...

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.

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

Chicago cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $35.00. 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.
