Learn More About Joellen

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love just being around cats. I love all their different personalities, no matter if they’re more aloof & too themselves or more cuddly and playful. I love playing w them and being around happy cats.ith

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I don’t have any kitties right now and I am disappointed about that. I cannot wait to have one again when I get my new apartment!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would say go forward with one that shows compassion and empathy and also great communication.

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

I don’t mind this at all. I accept the cats for whatever personality traits they have. I will sit on the couch or floor and just stay still mostly while reading. But also after awhile I will try to find them, call their name and call for them. Give them a play toy.

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.
