Learn More About Justine

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to spend time with animals that are (hopefully) not feral, unlike the wild animals I help at the Wildlife Hospital. I also love giving peace of mind to pet parents when they have to travel. Knowing my pet is in good hands when I'm gone gives me such peace of mind!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have four cats myself who are all rescues. The oldest is a 16 year old calico named Marley. Blaze is a medium-haired orange menace we got my daughter for her 9th birthday. He rules the house! Moon and Mittens are both timid ladies who are around three years old. You would think they would get along but they regularly throw paws.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am unfortunately not available for overnight stays as I have two children (Alise and Thomas) who are my priority above all else. I am available for most holidays given enough notice.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I like laser pointers myself. My cats usually prefer the boxes the toys come in. Typical cat behavior, I guess!

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I like to respect a cat's boundaries by giving them the time and space to come to me whenever possible. Typically I will sit on the floor and pointedly NOT make eye contact with said cat until they approach. I then let them smell my hand and give ear scratches if allowed. Moving slowly and cautiously helps. Hopefully, we can build a relationship from there.

Justine was very thorough about every task. She went above and beyond, showing up even when the weather was terrible. Our cat isn’t easy to deal with, but she was very patient with her as well.

Justine is the person you can rely on and know that your animals are well taken care of. Her entire attention is to putting the needs and wants of the animals first. To working at an animal rehabilitation, to rescuing wild animals in Mexico, to caring for animals domestic and wild in her own backyard, she is a person you can trust wholeheartedly with your home and animals. She's the best there is!

Frequently Asked Questions

Minneapolis 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 $28.00. 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.
