I'm Kristin
Cat Sitting in Westland, MI
During visits, I make sure your cat has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention. I never rush in and out — I like to spend real time with them so they feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your cat wants playtime, cuddles, or just someone calm to sit with them, I’m happy to match their vibe.
I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and easy to communicate with. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is in good hands.
What sets me apart is that I truly enjoy this. I’m patient with shy cats, attentive to routines, and I treat every cat like they’re my own. My goal is for you to come home to a happy, relaxed cat — and have peace of mind while you’re away.
Learn More About Kristin
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love getting to know each cat’s unique personality and building trust with them over time. It’s rewarding to see shy cats become more comfortable and playful cats excited to see me. Cat sitting never feels like work to me — I genuinely enjoy spending quiet time with them and making sure they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have one cat, Cora, who is five years old. She was found in a hotel parking lot when she was 4 months old and then taken to a shelter. She has been mine ever since. She has a BIG personality and is not shy at all. She lives with my two dogs and loves hiding around corners to surprise them despite how much larger they are than her (one dog is a Saint Bernard). Prior to Cora I had Riley who lived until he was 15 years old. For several months before he passed away, he was on kitty hospice. So I am familiar with complex medical issues and dealing with medication/ointments/etc.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I take a calm, patient approach with timid or anxious cats and always let them set the pace. I move slowly, keep noise and activity low, and give them space to feel safe without pressure to interact. I stick closely to their normal routine and spend quiet time nearby so they can get comfortable with me. Over time, even shy cats often warm up, but I’m happy just making sure they feel secure and well cared for.

Kristin did a phenomenal job watching my cat while I was away. Not only did she provide pictures and updates, she took in my mail for me. My cat warmed up to her at his first meeting and he has a good sense of one’s energy.

Kristin watched my cat for a full week while I was away on my honeymoon, and I truly couldn’t have asked for better care. She was incredibly thoughtful, professional, and considerate throughout the entire stay. She kept us consistently updated, sent the sweetest pictures, and really went above and beyond to make sure our cat felt comfortable and loved while we were gone. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. If you’re looking for someone reliable and caring, book her, you absolutely won’t regret it.

I’ve had Kristin sit for two different cats. First an old senior cat who passed away and now our newly adopted four year old cat. Kristin has done an excellent job with both cats and caters to their specific needs (and each has/had their own car quirks!). She is responsive and trustworthy. 10/10 definitely recommend!

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.
Westland 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!
