I'm Suzanne
Cat Sitting in Bowie, MD
I enjoy playing with kitties (where did the dot go?) , and I am an enthusiastic fan of lap kitties, giving kitty scritches, and kitty snuggles. Not all of my cats are lap kitties - some pr... Hello! I am our local 'cat whisperer', with 5 rescues at home plus a feral that we feed. I have had cats my whole life and really enjoy their company and care. I have experience with medication administration in addition to day to day feeding, cleaning, and other cat care.
I enjoy playing with kitties (where did the dot go?) , and I am an enthusiastic fan of lap kitties, giving kitty scritches, and kitty snuggles. Not all of my cats are lap kitties - some prefer sitting close but not on me, so if your feline is standoffish, that's okay.
I would love to care for your kitties when you need a cat sitter - as a cat mom, I know the anxiety (both human and feline) when our pets' regular human isn't home to feed and care for them. I am reliable, and my main job as a director at a local small business allows flexibility in my schedule. I am in the Bowie area on the border of Glenarden and have reliable transportation.
Learn More About Suzanne
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I am cat mom to Stormy, Freddie, Pinky, Serrano, and Salume. Freddie recently joined us when my Mom became ill - she's a bit anxious and shy. Last year we lost Miss B, Pinky's long time bonded sister, to cancer. Salume and Serrano are sisters. All are rescue kitties.
What is your favorite cat toy?
My favorite toy is the fishie game (it's a YT video game for cats) - we put it on a tablet and put the tablet on the floor so the kitties can try to catch the fishies.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
Timid or anxious kitties need whatever time they need to get acclimated to a new person. I generally sit on the floor with an approved treat and see if they will come to me. If they are hiding and I can see them, I try slow blinks. I move slowly and speak softly so that I don't startle them. Our cat Freddie is anxious, and she has warmed up to sitting near me while I work on my computer.

Suzanne was so attentive to my kitty while we were away. It was my first time leaving Leo with a sitter, and Suzanne sent multiple pictures of my baby and updates with each visit. I appreciate her so much and would absolutely book again!

Suzanne did a wonderful job with my two kitties. One of my cats is very anxious and spicy around strangers, and she did such a great job with him. She really took her time getting to know him and what he needs! Her communication was also stellar—I always knew how my cats were doing. I can’t recommend Suzanne enough! :)

Suzanne went the extra mile to keep our very senior (and often cranky) Balinese happy for the 10 days we were gone.. Her photos from her visits to our home eased our worries, so we could devote all our time to vacation.

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.
Bowie cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!

Suzanne is hands-down, the best person ever that I’ve had to watch my fur babies. She goes above and beyond to ensure that all is well with your fur babies As well as your home. Just recently after the loss of a loved one, Suzanne was amazing and how she took care of everything that gave me the peace that I needed to plan an unfortunate funeral before Christmas. I will be forever grateful.

Suzanne was a great choice for overnight pet sitting. I had a bit of an unusual and challenging case, but she handled it really well. You can tell she genuinely loves cats and has a lot of experience with different scenarios. She gave me good updates and gave me a good sense of how they were holding up, good and bad. she also figured out how to get meds into them, which was great. I would definitely trust her with my cats again.
