I'm Maureen | Cat Sitting in Chicago, IL
My career in animal welfare began in 2012 with a fully immersive internship caring for rescued farm animals at a sanctuary in upstate NY. Since leaving the sanctuary I have continued working full time in animal care, covering many aspects from direct action rescue work to coordinating foster homes to managing a dog daycare. In 2021 I began working as a veterinary technician...

Maureen and the kitties got along great- even our shyest one warmed up to her! She updated us each visit with plenty of awesome photos. We had such a good experience with her that we immediately booked her again for our next trip. Highly recommend!!

Maureen was an excellent sitter for our cat Beanz. She took great pictures and came over before the booked time to ensure she knew where everything was and what Beanz liked! We will definitely book with her again!
Stephanie
I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Maureen. She was an excellent communicator and was so attentive to our cats needs. It brought such peace of mind to know they were in good hands while we were away!

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.
