Cat Sitting in Baltimore, MD

Every cat is different! My wife and I currently have 4 at our house of diverse age and personality. Some of our cats do better separated from the rest and prefer it that way, others are playful and love as much attention as possible. I would want anyone taking care of my own cats to know every quirk and detail about them.

Every cat is different! My wife and I currently have 4 at our house of diverse age and personality. Some of our cats do better separated from the rest and prefer it that way, others are playful and love as much attention as possible. I would want anyone taking care of my own cats to know every quirk and detail about them.

Before the Covid times I was a Graphic Designer in a workplace with a very large Spanish speaking crowd, for which I also translated very technical instructions for 4 years. Currently I work as an artist, and work primarily on game projects.

I currently live in Charles Village, my schedule is very flexible and can be around anywhere within the city from 9am to 7pm.

As for Covid precautions I am fully vaccinated and boosted and always mask up.

My senior kitty became sick while I was out of town, and Rodrigo immediately contacted me (and my emergency contact, when my phone was off) and stayed with her for hours. He spoke with a vet, and his wife joined him to help cajole Misty out from under my bed. He is amazing and thoughtful, and I’m so glad I can rely on him to watch over my girl.

Rodrigo displayed exceptional attention to detail and was very responsive to our questions. We appreciated his thorough updates that included pictures of our cats and the care he provided for them. We would happily hire him again for our next trip.

Our flight was canceled and we weren’t able to make it back home in time to take care of our cats food. We reached out to Rodrigo and he generously came and took care of our cat’s needs so we didn’t have to worry about Him while we were dealing with how to get home.

Rodrigo was amazing with my two cats while I was traveling for work. Rodrigo immediately won over my shy cat, who normally takes days to get used to a new person, and gave my other cat her daily medication with no problem. The updates I got were thorough and full of fantastic pictures. Rodrigo really went above and beyond!

This was our first time using this service and we are very happy. Rodrigo is an excellent communicator. He sent pictures and a play by play of the entire visit. He followed my instructions to the letter. I was very at ease during our trip knowing that the kitties were in good hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:


  • More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any 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.

Baltimore cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
