Cat Sitting in Baltimore, MD

Hi, my name is Marcy! I was born & raised in Baltimore, & Iā€™m a lawyer by day.

In my spare time, I love snuggling with my kitten, Frankie šŸˆā€ā¬› I LOVE CATS, as anyone who knows me can attest šŸ˜» You can trust that I will be loving, diligent, & playful when caring for your fur babies, and Iā€™ll send you plenty of pictures!

I have 20+ years of cat care experience. I grew up taking care of my longhair Persian, Bebe, and my family's cats - Holly, Ginger, and Roxy... Hi, my name is Marcy! I was born & raised in Baltimore, & Iā€™m a lawyer by day.

I have 20+ years of cat care experience. I grew up taking care of my longhair Persian, Bebe, and my family's cats - Holly, Ginger, and Roxy. I also help my friends take care of their cats - Castiel, Crowley, Leo, Hobie, Malenia, Thomas, Ernest, & Oscar ā¤ļø

I have experience with cats with medical concerns, especially thyroid & kidney diseases. I am CPR-trained for cats & dogs, and can administer oral medications, topical ointments, & ear drops. I have experience administering injections in humans, and I'm happy to learn how to do so with animals.

I take health & safety seriously. I remain updated on all my vaccines, and I hope your cats do, too!

I have a minor allergy to lavender, so I would appreciate if you could let me know if you use lavender litter, soap, trash bags, air fresheners, etc. so I can prepare!

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

I started Meowtel in 2021 as a pandemic side hustle, but Iā€™ve been catsitting for friends and family for 20+ years!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I get along well with cats, and itā€™s rare to meet one who doesnā€™t warm up to me (eventually). I enjoy making cats feel safe, and there is nothing better than kitty snuggles! Best feeling in the entire world.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My cat's name is Frankie! He is gray with a white tuxedo on his chest. He's a little anxious, but very sweet and snuggly. He is 4-years-old. I met him when he was 4-weeks-old after my friends found Frankie, his mom, and his siblings on their porch! They were hiding under a tarp to stay dry during a thunderstorm. I helped take care of all 4 cats for a few weeks, and adopted Frankie when he was 3-months-old. My friend adopted Frankie's mom and we are planning a reunion!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! My family lives in Baltimore, so I usually stay here during the holidays to celebrate with them. I do ask for some timing flexibility on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and Easter, so I can plan around my familyā€™s celebrations.

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

I have a lot of experience with anxious cats because Iā€™ve had 2 cats with acute anxiety who needed medication. When I cat sit for an anxious cat, I sit still for at least 15 minutes to allow the cat time to warm up to my smells without making noise or quick movements. I always let cats sniff my hand before I attempt to pet them. I speak in very soft tones. If treats are available, I will either hold them in my hand or put them next to my feet so the cat can feel more comfortable approaching & being physically close to me. I also encourage parents to use pheromone sprays or plug ins. Some cats also respond well to daily gabapentin when their family is away, and I can administer that.

Marcella was amazing with my baby Yana! She needed extra special attention as she needs meds each day. And we were gone a really long time out of the country. Marcella was great about sending me pictures and texting me updates so I wouldn't worry. I will definitely have her back!

Marcella was a wonderful sitter for my two cats while I was out of the country. I received frequent updates and pics (if the cats came out). When Marcella had an emergency and needed to reschedule for one visit, she made sure that meowtel found a replacement and kept me in the loop the entire time. It was great knowing that she's taking care of the cats in every situation. I will hopefully work with her again in the future.

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.

Baltimore cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
