I'm Jackie | Cat Sitting in Somerville, MA

DISCOUNT FOR NEW CLIENTS 😻coupon will be applied at checkout😻 Hello everyone! I am a full time cat sitter and absolutely love what I do! I grew up with cats and have had multiple cats as an adult. I currently have three cats, Harley(8), Peachy(3) and Bonks (1). I volunteer as Feline Manager at a local shelter. I started on their cat care team 3 years ago and started working with the adoption team a little over 1 year ago. I have really enjoyed my time volunteering at the animal shelter and...

Learn More About Jackie

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

I started catsitting for neighbors and friends about 10 years ago and have been doing it professionally for about 5 years. I have been a volunteer at a local animal shelter since 2021 and working with the cats there has helped me learn so much more. I have been able to learn a lot about cat behavior, body language and reading their cues which has become so helpful as a cat sitter.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 3 cats myself. My oldest is 8 and her name is Harley. I adopted her about 4 years ago and she is the sweetest snuggle bug. I also have Peachy (3 years old) who I adopted in 2022. He is a big goofball who loves to play, snuggle and eat. Bonks is about 1 old and the newest addition to my little family. She a bit shy, but once she gets comfortable she so snuggly and loves to play and wrestle with her brother Peachy.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I am usually available during holidays. I love spending the holidays cat sitting. I am usually very busy during the holidays so definitely a good idea to book early 😉😻

Jackie has watched our two cats twice (with more visits to come!) and we can safely say the anxiety of leaving has completely gone away. our babies need medicine and unfortunately a lot of things ‘checked off’ and Jackie always succeeds. she is super responsive and helpful and has even gotten our cat, who is known to be aloof, to start warming up to her. we are really grateful to have found someone we trust to take care of our babies and be in our home.

Jackie has taken care of my cat Maddie a few times now and she is fantastic. She goes above and beyond communicating updates, sending videos and pictures throughout. I never worry about Maddie when I am away because I know she is in great hands with Jackie. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a cat sitter. She is the best!

Jackie was so sweet and was very intuitive when getting to know our cat Juno. She spoke to her so softly and somehow knew exactly how Juno likes to play! she got belly rub permission very quickly! Jackie is a safe, sweet and cat-knowledgeable pet sitter.

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

Somerville 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.
