I'm Daniele

Cat Sitting in Jamaica Plain, MA

My name is Daniele! I have two cats, Sol and Chibiusa! I adopted both after rescuing them from a feral cat community. I fell in love with both of them and have found so much emotional support in their unconditional love! I also recently just adopted a new cat, Emily, after her owner passed away and was in need of a home. Emily was in hiding for weeks! But finally after patience, I was able to build rapport with her and get her to trust me as a caregiver. She is a wonderful addition to me and my small family!

My main job outside of Meowtel is a Resident Services Coordinator for a affordable housing community. I find myself to be a very kind, empathetic person who loves working with others. I value being reliable and being held accountable! It is important to me to work hard and do what I can to help others...

In the past, I have experience cat sitting. I have experience with administering basic medications and feel comfortable with learning new skills and strictly following directions. I also love cuddling and play time too :)

During a visit, I will feed, play with, and administer any medications to your feline family. I also will do some light cleaning and litter box maintenance.

I am vaccinated and will wear a mask at all times when in your home if asked to. I also am comfortable with disinfecting areas if needed and doing some light clean up when it comes to your babies!

Since my day job is on site and I am usually traveling around the city by the T/bus, I am able to stop by after work as long as the residence is easily accessible via public transportation. I am able to do morning or evening visits during the weekends. Please inquire if you need a morning visit during the week and maybe we can make something work!

Let's connect and set up a meet and greet! :)

Learn More About Daniele

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Getting to meet all the new cats!! I love interacting with the cats and learning more about cats personalities! Also a great stress relief for me is getting to pet all the soft cats!

What is your favorite cat toy?

I love watching cats play with spring toys! It is so fun to see them wiggling their booties before they pounce! Also love any toys with cat nip!

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

I like to give them their space to show them they can trust me. I also like to sit on the floor and give them the option to approach me! If not interested, I make sure to respect their boundaries!

We continue to be so grateful to have found Daniele to care for our cats. With an older cat with medical issues, it’s very stressful to leave him. And I never worry that he is being taken care of compassionately. She keeps in constant communication while we are away so that we know that nothing is being overlooked. We hope to continue to work with her as long as she is available!

This is the second time we’ve used Daniele, and I can’t say enough about how fantastic she is and how pleased we are. We recently moved after more than 20 years and had always used the same cat sitter, so we were nervous about trusting someone new. Daniele has been unbelievably kind, thoughtful, and professional, and I am so grateful we found her. Both of our cats are seniors, and one has some minor health issues that require daily medication. Daniele has been incredibly patient and careful to make sure he gets his meds properly. She’s also extremely communicative, sending regular texts and videos to keep us updated on how things are going at home. I trust her implicitly and hope she’ll continue to be available for us to work with for many future trips.

Daniele was incredibly patient with my shy cat, taking the time to administer medication and even making sure she got some playtime. Her thoughtful updates gave me real peace of mind while I was away.

We were so lucky to find Daniele! After 25 years of relying on a neighbor to care for our cats, it was stressful to find someone new—especially right after a big move and with two aging cats who have very different personalities and needs. Daniele was incredibly patient at our meet-and-greet, took the time to really listen, and made it clear she doesn't offer one-size-fits-all care. Throughout our trip, she kept us updated with messages, photos, and even videos, which gave us real peace of mind. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again for our upcoming fall trip!

I super appreciate how thorough Daniele was with her reports from the house while she was there taking care of my baby. It helped me to have a good sense of how he was doing and what things were like at home while I was away. She took great care of my kitty, my home, was an excellent communicator, and followed my asks perfectly. Will definitely re-book!

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.

Jamaica Plain 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!
