Cat Sitting in Ellicott City, MD

My name is Jenni and I love cats! I've been obsessed with cats since kindergarten and I have two of my own. I'm a pretty quiet person (unless you get me to a karaoke party), so cats and I have always been on the same wavelength.

My name is Jenni and I love cats! I've been obsessed with cats since kindergarten and I have two of my own. I'm a pretty quiet person (unless you get me to a karaoke party), so cats and I have always been on the same wavelength.

When I take care of your cats, I will treat them as my own. I will pet and cuddle them (as much as they wish). I will play with them until they're tuckered out. I'll watch them eat to make sure they're eating normally. I'll get to know them and love them. I can't wait to meet them!

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

I've done catsitting for friends and family for years, and I've been sitting for Meowtel since August 2025. I love it!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

The relationships I formed with my repeat kitty clients is my favorite thing about catsitting. When I come in and they instantly recognize me, it makes my heart soar!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My parents would never let me get a cat when I was a kid. (the nerve!) After years and years of waiting, my dream came true and I adopted two young cats with my then-boyfriend in 2011. Jack and Pippa have been with us through a lot. Marriage, the birth of three children, and five different homes, including two international moves. They are members of our family and life wouldn't be the same without them.

What is your favorite cat toy?

Da Bird is my favorite cat toy, because I love to see how HIGH cats are willing to jump to try and get it, and how it activates their prey drive instincts.

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

I sit on the floor, speaking calmly and sweetly. I try to tempt them with a toy or treat, and keep talking so they can get used to my voice and scent.

What a blessing it is to know that Jenni is taking care of our furbaby. Jenni is easy going, reliable and a great friend to Nala. Nala needs insulin shots morning and night and Jenni is able to give the shots while becoming besties with Nala! Jenni sends lots of photos - frequently with Nala on her lap in different areas of the house. She also brings in any packages and our mail. What a relief to know that things are fine at home while we are gone and our best photos of Nala are from Jenni!

Jenni was amazing!! We never had a cat sitter before and were nervous about leaving for vacation since both of our cats have special needs one being blind and deaf and the other having wobbly cat syndrome. But Jenni treated them like her own kitties and gave us daily updates with some of the best photos of them!! We will definitely go with Jenni again 😻😻😻

Once again, Jenni took great care of our Nala. I received photos and information about how she was doing daily. I could see that our kitty was comfortable and sitting on Jenni which has not always been the case. When we returned home, Nala came immediately to greet us which showed that she had been well tended and was not mad with us for leaving as has been the case in the past. Will use Jenni as long as we are able!!

This was my very first time using a cat sitter, and Jenni made the experience absolutely wonderful. I was away for a week, and when I came home my cats were healthy, happy, and full of energy. They looked great and were eager to play and “talk” with me, which tells me they felt safe and loved while I was gone. Jenni went above and beyond—she played with them, kept things fair between them, and even made sure their toys were charged and ready for fun. She kept their space clean, took adorable pictures, and gave me peace of mind by showing me videos of her interacting with them. It was clear she truly cared about their well-being. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Jenni’s dedication, professionalism, and genuine love for animals shone through in everything she did. I will certainly be using her again for my next cat sitting, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter!

This was my first time using Meowtel and hiring a professional cat sitting service. Working with Jenni made the entire experience seamless and worry-free. She was absolutely wonderful with my four cats! Her communication was great from start to finish, and I loved getting her daily updates and pictures while I was away. She even managed to win over one of my most shy cats, which speaks volumes about her gentle approach. I will definitely be rebooking Jenni for my future travels!

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.

Ellicott City 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 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!
