Cat Sitting in Hudson, MA

Hi! I am so excited to love your cats like my own. I grew up with multiple amazing cats my whole life, and all cats tend to instantly warm up to me. Call me a cat whisperer!

I started cat sitting with Meowtel 5 years ago in NYC, and after moving back home, I'm ready to take on new clients in Central MA and I'm looking forward to caring for your cat(s) and making lasting client relationships. My friends and coworkers would describe me as caring, responsible, and detail-oriented...
Hi! I am so excited to love your cats like my own. I grew up with multiple amazing cats my whole life, and all cats tend to instantly warm up to me. Call me a cat whisperer!

I started cat sitting with Meowtel 5 years ago in NYC, and after moving back home, I'm ready to take on new clients in Central MA and I'm looking forward to caring for your cat(s) and making lasting client relationships. My friends and coworkers would describe me as caring, responsible, and detail-oriented. I do have experience caring for kittens and multiple cat households, as well as blind cats, deaf cats, tripod kitties, cats who may be scared, skittish or feisty, and administering various medications in powder, gel and liquid form.

Outside of my love of cats, I also love theatre, traveling, and learning languages. I recently earned my Masters degree abroad, and I currently freelance in the travel industry. I also love caring for plants. If you are away from your home and need some of your plants to be watered, I am happy to arrange that as well.

Please don't hesitate to reach out with any specific questions or concerns. I look forward to working with you and your feline friends!

Learn More About Alison

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Pippi - (like Pippi Longstockings) is a 6 year old calico with no teeth, who is a total lap cat and is scared of tinfoil Russell - a 3 year old typical orange boy (HUGE and fluffy, crazy and feisty, but oh so sweet) My childhood cat Dusty was a black cat who lived to 19 years old. A former outdoor cat, she loved our trips to Central Park in her carrier.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

Once your reservation is confirmed, I will connect with you to schedule a complimentary meet and greet. I find it's important for your cat to be introduced to me prior to the reservation, so there is less stress and anxiety for your kitty when you're away, because they already know me. And of course it's great to meet you, too! ;) I sometimes like to visit around meal time, so you can show me exactly how you feed your cat. I always take notes on the details of the portion and any other specifics, to replicate exactly for your cat(s) while you're gone. After some playtime with your cat(s), we will exchange contact information so you can reach me, then I always test the key in the lock before I leave the meet and greet. During your reservation, expect lots of pictures and videos each time I visit!

Are you usually available during holidays?

With advance notice, I can be available for most holidays. You can travel with the peace of mind knowing your cat is in good hands while you're away.

Alison was wonderful caring for my cat! She communicated consistently and took great care of my cat and my home while I was gone for a weekend trip. Alison confirmed the dates I needed early and was very responsive any time I reached out. I would definitely recommend her!

Alison was incredibly thorough and provided timely, detailed updates throughout her time caring for my cat. She made sure my cat’s food and water were well taken care of and spent quality time playing with him. My cat clearly enjoyed her company, and I could tell she made him feel comfortable. Alison’s care and attention truly eased my anxiety, and the pictures and videos truly made me so happy knowing my fur baby was well taken care of while I was away. I can’t recommend her enough! I’m so glad I met Alison through Meowtel!!

Alison was a great cat-sitter! My two cats are very shy at beginning. Alison patiently found them from their hiding place, made friendly contact to gain their trust. After a few visits, my cats started to greet her when she visited and followed her around! Alison took great pictures of both cats for every visit and sent to me. She communicated timely for questions or concerns. One of my cats needs daily insulin injection. Alison quickly learned it during our meet&greet session and did it for my cat while caring for them. This was a big relief for me. overall, I am very happy with Alison's work! My cats also became more and more attached to her near the end of my vacation 🙂 I highly recommend Alison to anyone who is looking for a loving and responsible cat-sitter!

Alison is incredibly caring and thoughtful. My cat clearly enjoys her company! When I returned, I noticed my cat was much more relaxed. Alison even brought him some toys, which was such a kind and personal touch. She also helped by trimming some matted fur, ensuring he was as comfortable as possible. I also got timely updates with photos and videos which really helped me feel comfortable knowing my fur baby was doing okay. Overall, she did a fantastic job. I highly recommend her for her excellent and attentive care!

Alison took fantastic care of my 2 cats over a week and a half! She was able to win over my cat who is verrrry wary of strangers on her first visit. Her updates and pictures/videos of my cats were perfect and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away.

Alison was a FANTASTIC catsitter for my 2 little dudes! My very anxious cat who usually hides whenever someone comes over, he ran right up to Alison and warmed up so quickly. I really appreciated receiving lots of pictures/videos and updates while I was away. It was clear when I got home that my cats were extremely well taken care of.

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.

Hudson 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 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!
