I consider myself a Senior and Shy Cat Specialist!
I have been in the veterinary field for 20 years, a Registered Vet Nurse for 15 years and I am both Fear Free and Pet CPR & First Aid certified.

Currently, I work at a Lenexa Vet Clinic full time Monday, Tuesday. Wednesday and half a day Friday, but my schedule can be flexible to accommodate your pet's needs!

Aside from cat sitting, I'm well qualified to treat any of your older kitties, or cats with medical issues that require subcutaneous fluids, medications and/or insulin injections.

I love cat sitting because it allows me to use all my cat behavior skills in a more fun setting! I get to be your cat's buddy when you're away, and help make sure they're well-cared for. It also is so rewarding to gain a cat's confidence in their home and just relax with them.
I can't wait to be your cat's new best friend!

Learn More About Ashley

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

I have been cat sitting for 25 years! From just watching kitties when their owners were out of town, to coming multiple times a week to give subcutaneous fluids and medications. I have a ton of experience being a "cat's confidant" while their parents are out of town.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to make new cat friends! I love cats (I have three of them myself!), but cat sitting allows me to include more cats in my life without filling my own house with a ton of cats! Also just gaining the trust of both the cat and the cat's family, and sometimes even becoming a small part of their family myself.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

For 3 years, I gave subcutaneous fluids 3 days a week to a senior Siamese with kidney disease named Frannie. She continues to be one of my favorite cats I've ever cared for, and I am still friends with her mom. Frannie's mom says she had a much more comfortable life in her last days because I was able to provide her with the care she needed. I even came over and supported her mom when it was time to let her pass on. Being a part of any pet's life, especially in their last days, is an honor and a privilege.

Ashley was amazing! My 15-year-old cat recently lost her brother and has been very anxious, but during our trip she had no stress-related accidents — a huge relief. Even with just a 20-minute daily visit, Ashley provided the calm, reassuring care my senior girl needed. Her photo updates were awesome, and it was clear my cat felt safe. I’m so grateful for the wonderful care!

Meeting Ashley and knowing her background gave us immediate confidence in choosing her to look after Sunny while we were out of town. She kept the agreed upon schedule, entertained Sunny and made sure all was well at our home. She sent pics and videos every day. We are delighted with Ashley and look forward to hiring again.

Reservation process was great and Ashley was awesome with our cats. Our very shy calico even came out to visit with her! Our other cat is special needs with medication and she handled him with care. We will 💯 use her again.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.

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.

Overland Park cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
