I'm Samantha | Cat Sitting in South Boston, MA

Meow kitty parents! My name is Samantha but I go by Sophie! I’ve been a cat mother and cat lover my whole life. I currently have three lovely cat babies that have been with me for over five years. Throughout my life I have taken care of many kitties for friends, relatives and neighbors. I worked for a cat sanctuary as a volunteer and had many rewarding experiences. I assisted in rescue of feral cats, delivering kittens, and administering medications such as insulin (oral and intravenous). I can also bathe cats if necessary or requested. During this volunteer process I bec...

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

I have not used Meowtel before, but during working all my full time jobs I also volunteered at various cat shelters across New England. I previously through word of mouth of friends and family was sitting cats and kittens throughout Boston and Rhode Island.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Every cat is different! I love all their unique personalities!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I helped baby sit a friends cat while she was traveling, and the kitty was very pregnant! While I was sitting for the evening I had to help deliver her 3 healthy kittens and get her through labor! This is such a rewarding and special experience.

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.

If you are not fully satisfied with your sitter after the Meet & Greet or during the reservation, please call 1-844-636-9835 so we can help you re-book with a new sitter to ensure we can deliver on our purrfect hospitality promise.

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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.
