I am a longtime lover of cats, and have spent the last 4-5 years fostering strays and ferals across Detroit! I have a lot of different experiences with very different cats and all their personality quirks and health specificities. Through my time fostering cats old and young, I've grown to have an affinity for the process of socializing them- meaning spending tons of time caring for them, and just hanging out. Cats have become a core part of my heart and my life, and I'm always happy to meet and care for another fur baby!

Learn More About Reid

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

I have had extensive experience cat sitting for both my parents and many of my friends, for both short periods and long vacations.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a 14 year old fluffy blonde cat named Breslin, or Lil B. He is very loud and demanding, but also my son.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I have a care checklist that I create in collaboration with the cat parent to ensure that everything is clear and written down for both parties.

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.

Detroit cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
