I'm Rebecca
Cat Sitting in Naperville, IL
Whether your kitty loves to sprawl on laps and receive belly rubs or runs and hides when they hear the door, I try my best to be a calm and pleasant presence without encroaching on their space. Cat comfort and communicating on their terms is one of my highest priorities.

Whether your kitty loves to sprawl on laps and receive belly rubs or runs and hides when they hear the door, I try my best to be a calm and pleasant presence without encroaching on their space. Cat comfort and communicating on their terms is one of my highest priorities.
I have experience with administering ear and eye drops, liquid, pill and powder medicine, minor sanitary cleaning, topical ointments, cat inhalers, and subcutaneous fluids. If there are further needs, I'm always happy to learn!
I'm also happy to water houseplants/gardens if I have a schedule for them and take out the bins on trash day! Let me know how I can go the extra mile; want a cute picture every day? Want me to add a sprinkle of catnip every once in a while? Just let me know and I'm there.
Detail oriented, cheerful, and communicative; that's me!
Learn More About Rebecca
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have house/kid/pet/garden/houseplant-sat in most imaginable combinations for about 20 years. If I have a list of instructions, I'll follow them to a T!
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
Getting to spend time with cats and giving pet parents the peace of mind that their cats not only have their physical needs met, but that they're happy and cared for.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes, I currently have 4! 2 middle aged girls who both love belly rubs so much they drool; Dot who's a roly-poly tuxedo and Wynne who's a sweet orange tabby. And also Nifl (Niffy) and Jotun (Yoyo), who are goofy teen torbie-simese sisters that reach up and tap you with their paws to get attention.
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Once we confirm a reservation, I reach out via private message on the app to ask for a good time to come over and get the lay of the land! It's usually a 10-30 minute meeting where I learn the desired schedule, see where things like litter, toys, and cleaning supplies are, meet the kitties, and establish expectations. I always ask if they want an update each time I visit, if they want pictures, and whether they prefer to communicate through the app or text. Easy peasy!
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I make sure to lay eyes on each kitty every visit, double check any automatic feeders to make sure they're still functioning, report any changes in kitty behavior, and double check the door is locked behind me each time.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Barring any major trips planned far beforehand, yes! All the family I visit for holidays is local and I have no trouble taking a break to go visit kitties.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Absolutely let the cat take it in their own time. I'll make sure I see them, so I know they're okay, but generally I sit across the room or down the hall not facing them directly so they can get a peek at me without me looking back at them. If they approach, I'll probably make quiet encouraging noises and move at their pace, but even if they never come out for pets, I putter around the house and talk quietly or hum without me being intrusive. I might park myself somewhere central and read for a while so they can have company! I'm also not above a treat bribe or two 😸

Becky is a lovely pet sitter. Our two cats were very shy so she took quite a bit of time patiently working to earn their trust. They were well cared for and well fed while we were on our trip. We would definitely work with Becky again for our next trip.

Rebecca was an absolute pleasure to work with! She’s friendly, very conscientious and reliable. Most importantly, she took great care of my two cats, spending time playing with them, and of course, feeding and litter cleanup. She messaged me updates and pics during and after each visit. I really appreciated that she provided me with feedback about them, as well as, checking and reporting on conditions in my home while I was away. We had quite a bit of correspondence, and she responded to my messages promptly, and was cheerfully accommodating with requests and changes. I highly recommend Rebecca for your cat-sitting needs!

Rebecca was so kind and positive from the moment we met, and I had no doubt she could easily care for my older cat who requires oral medicine. She was responsive and stayed in touch during our trip. I’ve already booked her again!

Rebecca took great care of our four cats while we were away on vacation, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Managing one cat can be a lot, but four is no small task — and each of ours has their own quirks and personalities. Rebecca made sure everyone was well-fed, happy, and loved. She kept the litter boxes clean, played with the cats, and sent regular updates so I could relax and enjoy my trip. When I came home, my cats were calm, healthy, and clearly very well cared for. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves animals, I highly recommend Rebecca. I’ll definitely be booking her again for future trips!

I was so pleased that Rebecca was available to care for my two cats, Link and Zelda, while I was away last week to visit family. She had provided such care and attention to them last Fall, that she’s who I wanted again to care for them. She’s wonderful, and always goes the extra steps. With Rebecca, I’m always assured that my two cat babies are in great hands!! Thank you Rebecca!!

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.
Naperville 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!

Rebecca is a responsible, caring, knowledgeable, and experienced cat-sitter. They are obviously a cat-lover and have always treated our cats with love and affection in addition to giving them top-notch daily care, including medications. I would recommend Rebecca with absolutely no reservations, and we feel fortunate that she has helped us with cat-sitting for so many years.
