Cat Sitting in Newton, MA

Hi there - I am a lifelong cat lover who started cat sitting simply because I adore being around cats! I grew up with cats but unfortunately I can't have one in my apartment right now :(

I am patient, reliable, and truly enjoy getting to know each cat and their quirks.

Hi there - I am a lifelong cat lover who started cat sitting simply because I adore being around cats! I grew up with cats but unfortunately I can't have one in my apartment right now :(

I am patient, reliable, and truly enjoy getting to know each cat and their quirks.

During my visits, I will:
- Feed your cat(s) according to your instructions
- Ensure that your car(s) have access to fresh, clean water
- Scoop/change the litter box
- Provide playtime and cuddles (if they're into that!)
- Send you regular updates and photos

I look forward to meeting your fur babies and providing them with attentive, loving care while you are away!

Learn More About Pearl

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

This is my first time cat sitting professionally, but I have cared for my friends' cats several times over the last few years. I've done short drop-in visits and overnight stays.

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

I would take the time to learn as much as I can about your cat's routine, personality, and preferences - such as favorite toys, hiding spots, and medical needs or quirks. During each visit, I will follow instructions closely and ensure your cat feels safe and comfortable with me. Communication is key to me and I plan on sending you regular updates with photos so you can see how things are going.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I take safety of both your cat and your home very seriously. I ensure all doors and windows are securely locked during and after each visit. When it comes to your cat, I will make sure they are safe and accounted for before I leave. I follow all instructions closely, ensuring that their environment is clean, calm, and comfortable. I plan on treating your home with the same respect and care that I would my own.

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.

Newton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $32.00. 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!
