I'm Alli | Cat Sitting in Laurel, MD

*** To my beloved repeat clients: refer a friend my way and get a 10% discount on your next reservation with me! See below for details! *** Hello! I have been an animal-lover all of my life. I've pet-sat for friends and family for as long as I can remember, and also volunteered at animal shelters from time to time and worked at a vet's clinic. I had the pleasure of adopting my first cat, lofi, in 2020. Converting to the Cat Mom religion was destiny. I have since adopted another cat, Boba, and continue watching cats for friends and loved ones. I hope to meet your furry ones and dote on them as they deserve while you're away! During the day, I work as a Registered Nurse. My foundation in a career in healthcare was built in the Emergency Room - I have extensive experience recognizing signs of distress and giving oral and injection medications. I would be happy to accommodate for your cat's special needs. Additionally, I also work remotely and have a regular schedule through the work-week. I also have a car. This reliable schedule and transportation means availability to come check on your cats is very easy to coordinate. My own cats enjoy ext...

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

For approximately the last 10 years I've been responsible caring for my friends' and family's cats. These are cats with diverse needs - cats requiring eye drops, oral medications and even subcutaneous fluids, kittens with lots of energy and curiosity, meticulous dietary needs and puzzle toy enrichment, or even a simple couch snuggle. I try to send daily pictures of cats to my friends while they are away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Absolutely! Lofi, the calico in my pictures, is my very first cat, adopted in December 2020. In a past life I believe she was a lady, because she is very well-mannered and has a singsong-y meow. Lofi was such a good cat I adopted another cat the following year, Boba. She's nearly the polar opposite of lofi - she is a black slug-shaped cat with a taste for mischief. I got lucky and both cats love extensive cuddling, and typically follow me all around the house.

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

The objective with these cats is not to win them over, but to make sure to go at their own pace. Give them space, avoid eye contact, and provide all of their favorite things in surplus so that they know they are safe. I respect all cats' needs, even if that means they don't want them from me.

Alli did an amazing job taking care of our two cats! I'm genuinely impressed that in her short visits she was able to keep up with giving medication, keeping the litter boxes clean, and even washing the dishes she used. I also really appreciated that she didn't stress out our especially shy cat just to take a photo. I'm hoping to hire Alli again the next time we need a cat sitter.

Alli was amazing with Ellie! Alli sent so many adorable pictures and videos interacting with, playing with, and taking care of Ellie. I could not recommend Alli highly enough as a cat sitter.

Good cat sitters are hard to come by and I was very lucky that Alli was available. She is the perfect kitty whisperer and treated my Binx like he was her own. Great addition to the Meowtel family ❤️

Alli is an amazing cat sitter. We have 4 cats. She remembered their names and their little habits and idiosyncrasies. She was able to coax out our shy guy, Bart. The communication and photos were great. We highly recommend Alli.

Frequently Asked Questions

Laurel cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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.
