I'm Onyx | Cat Sitting in Kensington, MD
Hello! My name is Onyx. I currently have two cats, Mr. Kittykins and Adina. Mr. Kitkins is a domestic shorthair tabby who we estimate to be about 16 years or older. He is brown, but turning more gray as he ages. He’s an indoor/outdoor cat who used to be out on the prowl, but now prefers to relax under the patio furniture. Both of my cats were found on the streets but love having a home for themselves! Adina is a young adult, aged around 3 years. As such, she is a little ball of fire and refuses to stop trying to get on the banister. Adina is a tuxedo cat, so she has a lovely black-and-white pattern on her fur. She can often be found in a “Gangnam style” position with her paw...
Onyx's Reviews
Shyla
Onyx was on time everyday for an early visit and helped us get peace of mind when we were away. Onyx sent us pictures and face-timed with us, played with Billie our shy cat, all in all a great experience!
Mckenzie
Onyx was a great help over the holiday, both with my two cats and spot checking things like apartment temp and safety!
Arielle
Onyx was wonderful with our kitties while we were out of town! We had a last minute cancellation with another sitter and Onyx saved the day. We had great communication, lots of pictures and updates, and best of all we returned home to 2 happy and well cared for kitties. Thank you!!
Steffi
Onyx was super responsive and easy to communicate with. I got written and photo updates after every visit and knew my cats were well taken care off.
Emily
Onyx was a great cat sitter for our Tilly while we were out for a little over a week! Our cat loves cuddles and Onyx patiently let Tilly climb and sleep in her lap every visit. Onyx is also very observant and found some small scars on Tilly's neck that we hadn't noticed before.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kensington cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $28.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
