I'm Eleanor
Cat Sitting in Ocean City, MD
I have experience with cats who are shy, slow to warm up, or particular about their routines, and I know how to respectfully manage their space, body language, and environment to keep them feeling safe and stress-free... I’m new to Meowtel, but I’ve been caring for cats my whole life! I grew up with cats and am comfortable caring for them at all ages, temperaments, and comfort levels.
I have experience with cats who are shy, slow to warm up, or particular about their routines, and I know how to respectfully manage their space, body language, and environment to keep them feeling safe and stress-free.
I’m currently based in the Ocean City area as a seasonal member of the National Aquarium’s Marine Animal Rescue Team, so caring for animals is quite literally what I do every day!
I’ve cared for kittens through senior and hospice cats, and I’m comfortable administering medications, trimming nails, and supporting specialized care needs. Whether your cat is playful, reserved, reactive, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I’m experienced in tailoring my care to match their personality and routine.
I love enrichment play, slow trust-building, and making sure your cat feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away.
Learn More About Eleanor
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve had cats my entire life growing up and have always been very comfortable caring for them. I also regularly looked after friends’ and family members’ cats and dogs throughout middle school, high school, and college, which gave me experience with a wide range of personalities, routines, and care needs.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have one cat named Moose. He’s black and white in a cow-pattern way! I met him while I was living in Honduras for three months this past summer for diving, and completely fell in love with him. I ended up bringing him back to the US with me, and he’s been the best adventure buddy ever since.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
I take both cat and home safety very seriously while cat sitting. I’m very mindful about entry and exit routines, making sure cats are accounted for before opening doors, and I never leave doors or windows open. I also double-check that food, plants, cords, or small objects that could be unsafe are out of reach. I closely follow each owner’s care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, and any specific safety notes about the home or cat’s behavior. I keep litter boxes clean, monitor appetite and behavior, and will flag anything unusual right away. On the home side, I respect the space as if it were my own, keeping things tidy, bringing in mail/packages, adjusting lights or blinds, and ensuring everything is locked up. Communication is also a big part of safety for me, I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their cat is doing well while while they’re away.

Eleanor was great with my kitties! I got lots of pictures and updates. it’s comforting to be able to go out of town and know your cats don’t have to spend that entire time alone. I will definitely be using Eleanor for cat sitting in the future.

Ellie has always loved animals and has a special bond with them. Some people are natural animal whisperers and I feel Ellie is one. Ellie is very responsible and takes excellent care of animals in her charge, treating them as though they are her own. Ellie has had cats her entire life and has a soft spot for them. She adopted an undernourished kitten from Honduras and in months had him flourishing. I highly recommend Ellie as a cat sitter as she will do an excellent job caring for him/her/them. Sally K.

Ocean City cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
