I'm Heather
Cat Sitting in Wenham, MA
I’m comfortable handling a wide range of temperaments — from shy and timid to strong-willed or reactive personalities. I understand feline body language and believe trust is earned, never rushed. My visits are always centered around helping your cat feel safe,... For 30+ yrs I’ve cared for my own kittens and cats as well as fostered rescued cats — including elderly cats, mama cats with newborn litters and stray kittens.
I’m comfortable handling a wide range of temperaments — from shy and timid to strong-willed or reactive personalities. I understand feline body language and believe trust is earned, never rushed. My visits are always centered around helping your cat feel safe, respected, and understood in their own home.
Whether your cat wants energetic playtime, quiet company, or simply a respectful presence, I adapt to their individual needs.
I also prioritize communication with you, and provide updates, photos and observations so you feel fully informed and reassured while you’re away. My goal is always to ensure both the cats and their parents feel secure, supported, and cared for.

Wenham cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!
