Cat Sitting in Annapolis, MD

Hi, my name is Karen! I have an adventurous spirit, and spent most of my 20s/early 30s traveling and working all over the world. A year and a half ago I slowed down my life, and I have been grateful to find the rewarding job of cat/house-sitting while figuring out how I want to spend the rest of my life.

Hi, my name is Karen! I have an adventurous spirit, and spent most of my 20s/early 30s traveling and working all over the world. A year and a half ago I slowed down my life, and I have been grateful to find the rewarding job of cat/house-sitting while figuring out how I want to spend the rest of my life.

My love for cats runs very deep. I've had cats since I was a kid, and I love nothing more than to sit on the floor and earn a stubborn cat's trust. My most recent cat was a long hair, so I am also excellent with a brush. A couple years ago I fostered four kittens while working on a ranch, and it was heaven! I also worked at a cat daycare right after college. I am comfortable administering eyedrops and medication.


I am neat, organized, and a proactive communicator. I also like to make sure you get pictures of your cat while you're away. I hope to hear from you soon!

Learn More About Karen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love everything about cats! I enjoy snuggling with them, playing with them, and spamming my loved ones with pictures of them. I also love the way they will join in when I do yoga!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My most recent cat passed away a couple years ago. Her name was Lady Macbeth and she was a rescue. She had the most obnoxious meow you've ever heard, and I miss it very much.

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

I am quite patient with anxious or timid cats. I never try to force them to interact with me. I will work quietly nearby or even sing songs while I wait for them to get used to me.


Medication Experience:

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills

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.

Annapolis 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!
