I'm Mohammad | Cat Sitting in Palatine, IL

I remember the first time I saw a kitten in front of my school when I was eight years old. It was meowing loud in the bushes and shivering in cold weather. I brought my whole community of family and friends to save it and get it a home that night. Since then, I have had about three cats, two orange-haired and one calico with spots. In every household I have visited, if there are cats, then the cat and I will bond. I love cats in books, movies, and in my life. I enjoy how therapeutic their purring can be after a long day. When I check on my friends, I always ask them how their cats are doing, and they usually respond with a cute picture. One time, I met a feline nutritionist at a pet store and found her job so cool that I thought about becoming one in the future. I love hanging out with cats and working alongside them on my laptop. I have worked in healthcare and am transitioning to the tech world. Working remotely allows me to travel and hang out with beautiful cats! Traveling is my favorite thing of all time, and I would like to visit every country in my lifetime. The next country I like to visit and r...

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy how happy the cats are to see me at every visit, even if it's only during the feeding time.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats, Phoenix and Simba.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Feel free to reach out by casually messaging me and introducing yourself and your awesome kitties. In the beginning, I always ask if you can share three things: any dietary restrictions, medications and their use, and the behavior around new humans. If you have four or more cats, please choose a reservation for a minimum of 45 minutes. From experience, this allows feeding, cleaning, and playtime with all the cats, especially if they have special dietary needs, medications, or need to be separated or monitored when eating. If a cat needs to be monitored when eating, please time it along with all the tasks to determine visit times (20 minutes may not be enough). If your cat requires two insulin shots per day at a certain time with a twelve-hour period in between, I highly encourage overnight visits. Please ensure you have stocked up on all the supplies.

My husband and I needed an express visit late at night (after 7pm) since we were traveling and out of 3 sitters we wrote, Mohammad was the only one to answer and he did within 10 minutes, he was fast at opening a space for us with such a short notice. he was super diligent and punctual picking up the keys and then dropping them off after visiting our cats, we did a video call and he was very easygoing and did everything just as we needed. Very kind and respectful, we will definitely write him again for a next time. Highly recommended!

Mohammad was amazing! He came on time each and every day and when he was running late he notified us right away. He was very through and we greatly appreciated all the detailed updates. It was wonderful to know our cats were in such great hands. Cannot recommend Mohammad enough!

My cat Bean can be a little difficult with new people and often tries running into the hallway of our building, which caused some problems with previous sitters. Mohammad, was great with Bean and there were no problems whatsoever, I felt confident she was in good hands!

Mohammad was a wonderful caregiver for our fur baby. From the moment we met Mohammad, we felt completely comfortable with him. It's hard to find someone that has experience with giving injections to a diabetic cat, but he put our mind at ease and was a pro. We were so impressed with the detailed updates and photos. I think it our cat considers him his new best friend. And I think he left our place cleaner than when we left! We absolutely trust him 100% and will use him for all future bookings.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $35.00. 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.
