Cat Sitting in Livonia, MI
In 2024, I spent six months volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I cared for cats of all ages and... Hi! I’m Abby, a lifelong cat lover and experienced pet caregiver. I currently share my home with two sweet rescue cats I adopted in 2020. I’ve been around cats my whole life and understand how unique and particular they can be.
In 2024, I spent six months volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I cared for cats of all ages and temperaments. From shy kittens to senior cats with medical needs, I’ve worked with them all.
I’m happy to follow your specific routines, keep you updated with photos, and make sure your kitty feels safe and loved while you’re gone. My goal is to create a low stress, comfortable environment so your cat feels as relaxed as possible.
Learn More About Abigail
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love that every cat is different, so getting to know each one and learn their personalities and quirks is a very rewarding experience. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets so I love to be able to give photos and updates.
Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?
My favorite cat sitting reservation was with four cats - Mogli, Flower, Duke and Tito. Their personalities are all so different so it was fun to get to know them and spend time together. Mogli is an early riser who wakes me up at 8 am for breakfast and loves to snuggle throughout the day. Tito, on the other hand, is a little more shy and takes some time to warm up. Flower and Duke are both easy going and low maintenance making for a really balanced group. It was such a fun and fulfilling experience!
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I’m available during the holidays! I know how important it is to have a reliable sitter when you’re busy with holiday plans so I’m happy to make sure you cat feels comfortable and cared for during that time.

We had such a wonderful experience with Abby as our cat sitter. From the very first meet-and-greet, she made us feel completely comfortable and at ease—not just with us, but with our kids as well. She took the time to include them in the process, which meant so much to our family and helped build trust right away. Our cat, aptly Houdini, is quite anxious and notoriously stubborn about hiding. While Abby only briefly saw him during the initial visit, he chose to stay hidden and not come out to play during the rest of her visits. Despite this, Abby never missed a beat. She provided consistent updates, clear communication, and reassurance throughout our time away, which made us feel completely comfortable leaving him in her care. Abby’s attentiveness, patience, and understanding of anxious cats truly stood out. Knowing she was there checking on him, caring for him, and keeping us informed gave us such peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful for her excellent care and communication and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, reliable, and compassionate pet sitter.

Abigail is so sweet, caring, and attentive to my kitties. She was my first experience using a pet sitter and I couldn’t be happier I found her. She was extremely communicative throughout our time and I greatly appreciated it as an anxious cat mom. She gave me tons of updates, photos, videos, and cared for my cats as if they were her own. She went above and beyond what I asked of her in caring for my pets. She was respectful of our home and made me feel confident and comfortable that my cats were in good hands. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced cat sitter and will 100% be using her services in the future.

There is not enough space allowed on here, to put into words what meeting Abby meant to our family. This went from, we moved and needed to find a home and fur babysitter. A mutual friend told us about Abby so, we messaged her, she adjusted her schedule and we met us within less than 24 hours. Before she left, we already had her booked for her first stay with us. She shared photos with us, she communicated with everything. (Disclaimer JOKE - I really don't want to say how amazing she was, because then everyone is going to want to book her services) But I have to tell the truth!!! Whether it's a wellness check, a quick stop visits, a drive by feeding, a walking, a belly rub, an overnight, or even longer stays. Abby is by far the right choice for our family, so I know she's the right choice for your family too. We knew within 30 minutes of her arrival that she was the one! How? She shared photos with us of 2 of our feral cats sleeping on her. That was all we needed to see, to know she won over their hearts, they trusted her, which means so do we! Thanks again Abby we can't wait to plan our next trip away. Howes Family - Mogli - Flower - Duke - Tito!

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.
Livonia cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
