Learn More About Michelle

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

I’ve been a trusted cat and house sitter for a friend with two cats over the past 10 years. Now that I no longer have senior pets of my own requiring most of my time and attention, I’m excited to branch out and offer cat-sitting services to others on a regular and professional basis.

Are you usually available during holidays?

With at least one week notice I should be able to make myself available over Thanksgiving and winter holidays. The only exception is New Year’s Eve and New Years Day.

What is your favorite cat toy?

It’s a little old school and simple but Cat Dancer. I’ve never met a cat who can resist this piece of springy wire with cardboard attached. Only caveat is it requires supervision and needs to be tucked away after use for safety.

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

Since many cats respond to the energy around them being calm is important. I’ve found playing a little cat-friendly music (it’s a thing!) or a video of bird sounds will often lure a cat out. Bribery by way of favorite treats or gentle brushing if they like that are also time-honored techniques.

My cat loves visits from Michelle. Especially the playing and brushing. When she comes over, he leads her straight to the toy/brush bin. I love that she sends me messages with their interactions. It is great that the cat has food and water, but even better that I know he has a friend in Michelle.

Frequently Asked Questions

La Grange Park 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.
