Learn More About Nicolette
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have 3 kitties! My first and most special is my soul cat “Jolie”. She loves to be left alone and wants love on her terms. Although she is stubborn, she has me wrapped around her little toe bean. My next kitty is “Sweeney”, he is considered my teenager. He loves to get into a lot of trouble and will require all the affection that you can give. Last but definitely not least is my little baby girl “Wednesday”. Wednesday is a precious and sweet girl that will never do any wrong, when you are looking.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I typically start with discussing the details, how many cats, how many days, etc. I then will recommend and in person meeting so I am able to possibly meet your furry child and introduce myself to the cat parent. I like to do in person introduction to also see where everything is located, food, medication, etc.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I typically stay in town during holidays. So, If you are looking for someone to take care of your furry friend while out of town for that Christmas family reunion that you are required to attend, I’m here for you.

This was the first trip we took without our son being home to take care of our cats. Nicolette eased our minds from the time of our meet and greet. She sent us daily updates when she was at the house with pictures of our babies. She even watered our flowers. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was taking care of them. Nicolette is the best!

Nicolette was wonderful! I was so grateful to find someone who was comfortable giving injections to my diabetic cat. She came over to meet me and my cats and go over things beforehand. Then she sent photos while I was away which made me feel better about leaving my cats. They were totally fine and comfortable while I was gone. I'm so glad I didn't need to make my cats stressed out by boarding them somewhere. I highly recommend Nicolette!

Nicolete did a fantastic job looking after my cat Dashiell. She sent me pictures and videos every day, and even managed to trim his nails! I would absolutely use her again and recommend her highly.

I can't say enough about how Nicolette helped me. After my aunt passed away, I was in charge of rehoming her cats to their new family in another state. Since I don't have my own cats, I wasn't confident I could give them their medicine or even get them in their crates. Nicolette did both quickly, and we were able to drive this bonded pair to their new home with minimal stress.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
If it doesn't feel like a purrfect fit after a Meet & Greet or during a reservation, our support team is here to help at 1-844-Meowtel (1-844-636-9835). We'll take time to understand what happened and help you consider next steps, which could include help with a new reservation.
Lockport cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. Prices depend on visit duration (20, 45, or 60 minutes) and whether you need drop-in visits or overnight stays.
Every cat sitter on Meowtel completes a background check. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can feel comfortable with 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. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend booking daily visits to keep your cats in their routine and help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each visit typically includes: feeding, refreshing water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, and any special requests. Ask your sitter about a Meet & Greet!
