Sheila is a great cat sitter. She administered medications, gave snuggles and provided detailed updates after every visit. We will definitely book with her again in the future.

Sheila took such great care of Oscar! She was attentive to his needs and communicative throughout our time working together. I appreciated the regular updates and pictures she provided during each of her visits - it was incredibly reassuring to know he was in such good hands. I hope to work with her again!

Sheila did a wonderful job caring for our older cat right from the start. He is on two meds twice daily; one oral liquid and one oral pill. She was on time and spent quality time with him each day. She took photo's and sent them to us after each visit. She took the time to get to know his favorite things and incorporate them into her time with him. Would definitely hire her again. :)

Sheila did a wonderful job caring for my cat, Tripp. She followed all of the instructions I left for her, and when I got home I could tell he was well cared for. She even left me a cat toy for him, which he loves. I appreciate coming home to a safe, happy, cat. Thank you, Sheila!

We couldn’t be more grateful for Sheila and her incredible care of our three cats Marvin, Archie, and Stanley, while we were away. She was always on time, extremely attentive, and truly went above and beyond to make sure each of our cats was not only well cared for but also genuinely loved in our absence. Sheila is incredibly detail-oriented and followed all of our instructions perfectly, even tending to the unique needs and quirks of each cat. Knowing they were in such capable and compassionate hands made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our time away as a family. We came home to happy, calm cats and that says it all! We highly recommend Sheila to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.

Sheila was so amazing with our two kitties, one of whom has asthma and gets an inhaler. They can be timid and they warmed up to her right away and are happy and calm. We can’t recommend her enough!!

Sheila was great. Totally felt our cats were safe, well taken care of, and in good hands. Also felt she was respectful of our space and was helpful in brining in our mail and packages. Loves the daily updates and videos of our cats. She also took care to learn about each out our cats and understand their personalities. 10/10 would recommend!

Sheila is GREAT! Knowing that she was checking in on my little girl allowed me to enjoy my time away. I had perfect peace that she would be on time to administer time-sensitive medication and give my furry friend the attention she needed to feel supported and loved. I am SOOO grateful for Sheila! :-)

Sheila went above and beyond when caring for my cat. She spent time keeping my (quite social!) cat company and entertained in addition to taking care of the necessities. I would absolutely ask Sheila back again, and recommend her very highly to others!

Sheila is an amazing cat sitter who cared for my cat as well as if she were her own. When I told her that my cat was incredibly social, she made sure to play with her and spend time with her daily. She was an amazing communicator, sending me updates once or twice a day, and even let me know on her last day that I should pick up more cat litter on my way home so that I didn't come home to a surprise. I would recommend Sheila to anyone in Grand Rapids who is looking for a dependable, attentive, and caring cat sitter.

Frequently Asked Questions
Grand Rapids cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.
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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
