I'm Samantha | Cat Sitting in Crystal Lake, IL
I have been a cat mom for most of my life! There is nothing I love more than my fur babies :) At the most, I had 5 - currently have 2: Gracie and Benny. I have worked in education for the last 16 years, both as a middle school teacher and literacy specialist. I first began teaching in Arizona, as there were few openings in my home area of Crystal Lake for a new teacher with a double degree in teaching and English. I moved to Arizona with one cat, Alley, and returned with 4! There is a large stray population there, and I went from feeding them on my patio to letting a few in the apartment to claiming them as my own quickly. My goal is to ease your mind that a cat person is taking care of your babies while you're away from home. There's nothing worse than having to teach your animal sitter ...

Samantha did everything I requested regarding taking care of my two cats while I was gone for period of time. Her text messages along with some accompanying photos gave me the confidence that all was in good hands. Highly recommended cat-sitter!

Samantha did a terrific job taking care of my two cats on two separate occasions. She did exactly what I had asked her to do regarding the cats and always provided a text message report following each visit. I would highly recommend her Meowtel service to anyone looking for a really good and responsible cat sitter.

Samantha is wonderful with our cat. I feel so much better when I travel knowing that she is stopping by every day.

We appreciate Samantha so much. She was wonderful with Niles while we were gone, spending time with him and sending us photos and updates.

I'm so glad to have found Samantha on Meowtel! I travel a lot & have two highly social cats who need human interaction & meals specific to each. Samantha takes care of everything - no problems! I get a daily update & return home to happy cats & a clean litter box. Reliable -- and also a cool person. 100% recommended.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
