Learn More About Stephanie

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

I’ve cared for my best friend’s cat multiple times while she was out of town. During those times, I’d visit her cat every other day for about 2 weeks, and I did that about 3-4 times.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy learning the personalities of different cats and what they like, whether that’s a specific toy, receiving pets/cuddles, or a favorite treat. For one of my visits with my best friend’s cat, I learned she loves to brush her teeth! It was the funniest and cutest sight.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I really like to know the routines or follow instructions left by cat parents. For example, my friend would leave detailed instructions of what a day to day looks like with her cat. I learned that she likes to drink out of a bowl over her fountain, or that she may be curious and eat unknown things. That last point helped me know to keep an extra eye on her and keep the floor clean/throw away any trash immediately!

Stephanie was very patient and understanding with my cat. Even though he can be a bit of a handful, she was still very caring and sweet to him. I will definitely have her cat sit again for me.

I love my cat Lulu and I hate leaving her when I go on vacation. Stephanie eased my anxieties with her updates and I knew Lulu was safe and in good hands. She is truly great and gave Lulu lots of love and care in my place.

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 $31.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 cat sitter on Meowtel has been background-checked and reviewed. Every Meowtel reservation may come 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 may come with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
