I'm Ashley
Cat Sitting in Boston, MA
Outside of being a loving cat mom, I am a school psychologist and work with children with disabilities.
I am off for the summer and am looking for some part time work!
I live in the North End in Bosto... Hello. My name is Ashley and I am a proud cat mom. I have grown up with cats my entire life and have always enjoyed their fluffy presence. I currently own a calico cat named Daisy. While Daisy is very outgoing, I also have experience with timid or shy cats.

I live in the North End in Boston, but I have a car and am willing to drive around the city to help care for your kitties! I hope to be a source of comfort while you are away from your home and cat. I am reliable, responsible, and enthusiastic.
I am increasing my rates because when I factor in the meet and greet and the percentage that Meowtel takes out, it ends up being insignificant pay for my time. If you live in the North end or close by I can drop my rates for you/give you a coupon! 😊
Learn More About Ashley
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have owned cats my entire life, and have been cat sitting for about 10 years now.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes I have two kitties. Their names are Captain and Daisy. Both are rescues. Captain is a shy scardy cat and Daisy is a crazy outgoing cat.
What is your favorite cat toy?
My cat loves her fake mice and pole with a fluffy string on the end.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I think being present in the room before attempting to interact with them is very important. That way the cat begins to become comfortable with your sent. After a little bit of time, use a toy or treat that the cat really likes, and calmly/slowly walk over to them.

Ashley helped me out on a last minute request, and went out of her way to make sure we had our meet and greet despite the quick turnaround. She did a great job taking care of my two cats and making sure they both got playtime and attention despite them both being a little shy. Thanks so much!

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.
Boston cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $30.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
