Cat Sitting in Boston, MA

I recently moved to the Boston area for work with my boyfriend. I wanted to take up cat-sitting in my free time because I understand how difficult it can be to juggle the craziness of life and still give your cat the attention and care they deserve. I’ve spent so much time worrying about my cat while traveling, and I’d like to help anyone who might be in a similar situation. Speaking of my cat, I have a brown tabby named Strudel (but when she’s acting up, we call her Larry) and I love her more than anything... I recently moved to the Boston area for work with my boyfriend. I wanted to take up cat-sitting in my free time because I understand how difficult it can be to juggle the craziness of life and still give your cat the attention and care they deserve. I’ve spent so much time worrying about my cat while traveling, and I’d like to help anyone who might be in a similar situation. Speaking of my cat, I have a brown tabby named Strudel (but when she’s acting up, we call her Larry) and I love her more than anything. I don’t remember what my life was like before her!

My cat sitting style is almost completely dictated by your cat! I strongly believe in the importance of positive reinforcement and I want to let your cat decide what we do. Whether it’s playing, cuddling, or just sitting in the same room as each other, I’m happy to do it all.

I also understand the importance of clear communication in any relationship but especially between a cat sitter and client. I will always do my absolute best to be transparent about my schedule and will send you all the pictures and updates you could want!

I look forward to meeting your furry friend!!

Learn More About Jessica

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have one brown tabby named Strudel, but when she’s acting up I call her Larry. She turns five in October!

What is your favorite cat toy?

My cat and I love using small colorful springs. They keep her very engaged and it’s so fun to see her run around and play fetch as she brings the springs back to me!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I will never try to force an immediate connection between me and any cat. For friends that are more shy, I want them to move at their own pace and do whatever makes them comfortable. As long as I’m sure they are safe and have all the resources they need, I am happy to give them as much (or as little) attention as they need.

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 $31.00. 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!
