This was my first time using any sort of pet-setting service - I’ve always been hesitant about strangers in my house or around my babies - so pulling the trigger on this took some research. I originally booked Cynthia just based on her close proximity vs other sitters in the area, but we got so lucky with her! You can tell immediately how passionate Cynthia is about taking care of kitties. As soon as she walked in the door, I felt safe and confident leaving her in charge for a few days. She sent so many pictures and videos while we were gone, and gave us updates of which flavor foods our kitten suddenly wasn’t liking anymore. I don’t even think she ever turned our TV on for her own entertainment because she was so excited just to play with our cats for the full time 😂 We ended up booking her for 3 or 4 weekends before she unfortunately had to move away from the area, but I’d book her time and time again if I could. Bean and Crew are going to miss her! 😻

Cynthia is the best catsitter/cat whisper! My four cats loved her - even Jasmine who hides from everyone. It usually takes 4-5 visits for new ppl to be able to see Jasmine but it took a minute for Cynthia. The cat feeders and camera in the room were turned off for some reason and but she fixed the problem at her visit. She played enough time with the cats and did everything as requested - feeding one cat seperately, opening the backdoor, and checking the curtains to make room for them to get in. She took many videos for me (almoost as many as I would in a day), so I felt relieved that everyone was enjoying her visit. The videos are different from the footage by homecams. She took care of our cats as her own. Now I know who to call when we travel!

Cynthia did a great job taking care of my cat. Cynthia sent regular updates, including pictures and videos, in addition to taking out my cat's litter and checking the mail. Cynthia is kind, trustworthy, and according to my cat is a real cat-person. I'd be more than happy to have Cynthia cat sit for me again. Thank you!

Cynthia was great! This was my first time using Meowtel and I’m a bit of an anxious cat dad, so I was a little nervous having an unfamiliar person take care of my (also somewhat anxious) boy over Thanksgiving break. Cynthia made sure to send plenty of photos and videos of my Gary being happy and well fed, and I definitely felt less guilty leaving him alone for most of the week. She doted on Gary more than I do most days! I would 100% hire her again and recommend her to other cat parents.

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.
Morton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!

Cynthia was awesome. I was nervous to leave my cat for the weekend because I'm new to the area. After I met Cynthia at the M&G before the trip, I felt much better. My cat was in good hands. Cynthia was reliable. I would warmly recommend.

Cynthia devotes her life to loving & caring for her kitties. They are considered children to her. She would bring that same energy to caring for others fur babies. She has a special way with kitties. She loves to baby talk with them and cuddle/play with them. They will never feel alone in her presence. She will SPOIL any kitty she watches! I would absolutely trust her to watch my 3 kitties!
