I'm Jocelyn | Cat Sitting in Chicago, IL
I understand how busy life can be, which can sometimes make it hard to give your pet all the time and attention they deserve. That's where I can step in! I have over five years of experience providing reliable dog walking, dog sitting, and cat sitting around the Chicagoland area. When I'm not with animals, I spend my remaining time working as a Realtor. I've had the pleasure of not only helping my clients buy and sell their homes, but I've also been able to provide them some peace of mind by taking care of their pets while they are at work or on vacation. While I do not currently have any cats of my own, I absolutely love spending time with them! I grew up around a lot of dogs and cats and have always felt very comfortable with animals. While they may not provide the same type of companionship as a dog, cats can be just as sweet and loving in their own special way....
Jocelyn's Reviews
Wendy
Jocelyn has been caring for our cats while we are away many times now. She never disappoints because she is in regular communication with us. We come home knowing our cats were not suffering and the house has no kitty messes. We are forever grateful for her putting up with our cats, maybe they are even friends now!
Beth
Jocelyn is amazing! 🤩 I have booked her multiple times and she is the best! She responds quickly, is dependable, sends timely updates and my kitties are comfortable with her which is incredible. I highly recommend Jocelyn!
Beth
Jocelyn is amazing! I was able to leave out of the country for two weeks knowing my kitties were in the best hands. Jocelyn charmed my shy little one, who hides from everyone, and gave my older kitty his meds which she did right on schedule. She sent plenty of photos and was consistent with her communication which allowed me to relax and I could tell from the pictures that they were very relaxed and not stressed. I highly recommend Jocelyn and am so grateful to have found her.

this is the 3rd time we have asked Jocelyn to take care of our girls. I could not be more happy with the care that they recieved.. My former feral loves her. when I returned, both cats were happy and content, no signs of stress. would work with her again in a heartbeat.
Beth
I’m so lucky to have found Jocelyn! She somehow charmed my little one into not hiding and even got her to eat. She provides great updates with photos so I don’t have to worry about how they’re doing. I trust both my cats are in great hands with her! 😺 this is my second booking with Jocelyn and I’m sure there will be many more.

Frequently Asked Questions
Chicago 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. 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.
