Learn More About Adam

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

I started cat sitting as a kid by helping out neighbors and family friends when they traveled. What began as a small favor has grown into something I genuinely enjoy and take pride in. Now, I cat sit professionally and have had the opportunity to care for many cats in a variety of homes. Each one has their own personality and needs, and I always do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable. I treat every cat I care for with the same attention and compassion I’d want someone to give to mine.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is getting to know each cat and figuring out their personality. Every cat is different. Some love attention, while others are happy just having someone nearby. It’s especially rewarding to earn the trust of a cat who might be a little shy at first and to know they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. There’s something really peaceful about it, and I genuinely enjoy being part of their little world, even if it’s only for a short time.

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

When I’m caring for timid or anxious cats, I focus on being gentle and patient. I give them plenty of space and never push for interaction. Instead, I let them come to me when they feel ready. I’ll usually start by simply being in the room with them, speaking softly and moving slowly. I avoid direct eye contact and pay close attention to their body language so I can adjust my approach as needed. Sometimes, just sitting nearby and offering a treat can help build a little trust. I always respect their boundaries and see even the smallest signs of progress as something worth celebrating.

Adam did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. I was away camping and my responses were delayed, but he was patient and understanding throughout. He went above and beyond to make sure my cat was well cared for, which gave me such peace of mind. I truly appreciate the extra effort he put in—it made all the difference knowing he was in such good hands.

Adam was excellent with my cat. He took a really good care of him and even he’s a old cat and kind of shy, Adam was able to make him feel comfortable.

Adam took great care of my cat and my home. He communicated effectively both before and during his stay. I would use Adam again as a sitter.

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 $29.00. 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.
