I’m a cat lover with one Tortie girl of my own (Idgie) & have a passion for cat care as someone who understands how precious our feline familiars are to us! I have over a decade of professional pet-sitting experience including caring for cats with special dietary, medical, or behavioral needs. As a cat parent myself, I deeply understand how important a loving, trustworthy, and reliable care taker is!

I understand each cat is unique & deserving of the utmost respect & attentive care catered to their particular needs, whether that means visits with lots of play & snuggles & chatter with more social kitties or quiet visits making sure their needs are met & offering a calming, steady presence for shy or more nervous kitties. I want to get to know your cat(s) and their unique personalities & routines. I’m here to make sure you can travel & know your family member(s) is in trustworthy, capable hands. ☺️

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What is not to love about getting to spend quality time with cats? My favorite part is getting to know each cat’s unique personality and bonding with them over the course of the pet sit, always letting the pace & boundaries of each cat lead the way. I am especially delighted when I get to work with repeat clients & continue fostering that bond!

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

Safety of your cat(s) and your home is of the utmost importance to me. I keep all personal information private. I work with whatever methods each client is most comfortable with including physical key copies or key codes for home entry. As a cat parent myself, I am familiar with quick, focused, and cautious entry if there are any escape artist kitties in the home. It is very important to me that pet parents communicate any behavioral or other safety concerns they may have for their cat(s) while away.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am available most major & minor holidays, but often book up in advance with regular pet sitting clients so I recommend booking early when possible.

As the mother of 3 very attention-seeking cat children, having someone reliable and friendly is very important any time i go out of town. The cats and I LOVE Jess. Whether my plans are short or long, Jess is always willing to try and pencil us in. I have been working with Jess for years and have never had any issue or concerns--i know that the cats are in good hands with her. She is our #1 choice any time i need to leave town. In fact, the cats seem to love her more than they love me. She is always quick to respond, sends photos of the babies, and helps out with small things around the house. I trust her inherently and the cats and I consider her to be family.

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.

Saint Louis cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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 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 Meet & Greet!
