Cat Sitting in Roxbury, MA

Hello fellow cat lovers! 🐾

Hello fellow cat lovers! 🐾

My name is Selina, and I’m a passionate and experienced cat sitter with a deep love for all things feline. I’m also the proud cat mom of a sweet 5-year-old ginger kitty named Mums, who keeps me endlessly entertained every day.

I understand that every cat is unique—with their own moods, routines, and quirks—so I always let each kitty lead the way. Whether your cat is shy and needs gentle space or playful and craving interaction, I’ll meet them where they’re at with patience and respect.

What truly sets me apart is the thoughtful care, attention, and intention I bring to every visit. I treat your cat like I’d want Mums to be treated: with love, presence, and genuine affection. From fresh water and food to litter duty, brushing, playtime, and cuddle sessions (if welcomed!), I aim to make your kitty feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away.

If you’re looking for a sitter who truly gets cats, you’ve found one. I’d be honored to care for your fur baby!

Learn More About Selina

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I love most about cat sitting is discovering the unique personality of every cat I meet. Each one is special in their own way—some are bold and curious, others quiet and reserved—and I find real joy in getting to know what makes them tick. I take the time to understand their individual quirks, needs, and comforts, and I tailor my care to suit them, not the other way around.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have one cat, whose name is Mums. Mums is a shy but playful cat who enjoys playing with the laser pointer and wand toys!

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is an oldie but a goodie, the laser point. I find that most cats enjoy chasing after the laser and it’s a great way to get some good exercise in while also simulating them.

Selina was amazing. She sent videos and photos with updates everyday. My shy kitty was very comfortable with her and when I returned home my kitty looked healthy and very well cared for. I’m grateful that I can go on vacation and feel confident that my cat is safe and happy. Strongly recommend!!

My reservation with Selina went really well. This was my first time away from my cat Peri since I adopted him. Before I left, I already had separation anxiety. Selina assured me that she'd send lots of pics and videos, which she did. Peri loved her, and I could tell she enjoyed taking care of him. I'll definitely book Selina again. She's a fantastic sitter.

  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
  • 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.
  • Within 24 hours of the reservation start date (or after it has begun): No refund. The sitter will earn 100% of their planned earnings.

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.

Roxbury 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 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!
