What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy playing with the cats and getting to pet them. I love it when cats want to cuddle and start purring when you play with them. I enjoy their floofs a lot.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 adult cats- Frenchi: orange cat, DMH and a big mamma boy. Professor- tuxedo cat, a shy cat that warms up quickly. Loves treats and laser toy. Foster kitten- Sally 6 months old Torbi, super sweet. Will likely adopt her

What is your favorite cat toy?

I like the teaser toy, laser pointer, and mice. I think the laser is a good way to interact with the cats.

Aya was an absolutely amazing cat sitter! She took such great care of our beloved Tink man while we were away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made sure he got his medications on time, showed him so much love and attention, and really went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and cared for. Aya asked thoughtful questions to ensure she fully understood Tink’s needs, and she kept us updated with the sweetest photos that gave us so much peace of mind. She even offered to spend extra time with him beyond what we had originally planned β€” such a kind and generous gesture! We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be calling on her again. Highly, highly recommend!

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. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oak Park cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $36.00. 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.
