Learn More About Carolyn

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I've been pet sitting and walking dogs full time professionally for the last 4.5 years both via Rover and private bookings. Before that I was the sitter of choice for friends/family's kitties since I "get" cats more than the average person and can accurately follow special directions for them.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Probably an obvious answer, but the kitties! They're such unique creatures, and I love figuring out their little quirks and personality traits. Even when they're pretty hyper, I still find hanging out with kitties to be very calming. I also really enjoy how grateful clients are for just doing a good job- a lot of sitters out there are "dog people who also watch cats" and just fill food bowls/scoop litter then play on their phones or leave visits early, and that's just neglectful. Not everyone understands that cats are also social creatures and need stimulation, so I love being the person that exceeds expectations!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I've only seen this particular kitty twice now since his mom isn't out of town often, but his name is Kurt! His mom initially said I "probably wouldn't see him" during the booking but I've heard that before so I had hope! She did mention he loves being brushed, and that was basically all I needed to win him over! He was still a lil shy when I got there on the first day, but she showed me where to look for him and I sat on the couch after doing his food/water/litter where he could see me. I grabbed the brush and he basically came right over- after that he would come out the moment I walked inside and meow at me for attention! His mom was so amazed too since he's never come out for any guests she's had, only her. And he's been soo affectionate since!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes, their names are Benji and Nelly! I talked about them a bit above, but Nelly is extremely orange- we have to keep the trash can outside or she'll find a way into it (or just shred the bag if she can't crawl inside), and have a weight on top of the dog's food bin to keep her out of it! She's only 7lbs (concentrated mischief), loves to scream, and gets very sweet and snuggly at night/in the sunlight. Benji is a 12 pounder, and has never met a stranger. He wants to lay on/be pet by someone at all times, and is surprisingly the picky eater of the two. It's especially a struggle getting him to eat wet food! He used to be an indoor/outdoor barncat, but has acclimated maybe a bit too well to his cushy house cat life!

Carolyn went the extra mile with my 3 cats. She is the only sitter I’ve had who made an attempt at finding my 2 shy cats. She was super communicative throughout the process. 6 stars would be more accurate.

Carolyn went absolutely above and beyond, taking the time to get to know each of our little guys. She sent regular pictures of the boys, as well as their food, water, and litter, which kept our minds at ease. They both loved her, even our shy baby was rubbing on her and happy as a clam. Couldn't recommend her more :)

Carolyn is great. She is reliable and kind. My cats are very shy around people and they were not scared of her at all. I had a very positive experience using the website. I will definitely use the booking service in the future.

Carolyn was excellent! This was the first time we had to leave our two senior cats for a extended time since they've started new twice daily medication. Carolyn did a great job communicating, getting to know our cats, applying medicine timely, and taking great care of our kitties! Very appreciative for her detailed communication and asking questions on their care. Would definitely book with Carolyn in the future!

Carolyn is simple amazing! From day one she’s been awesome around my very shy and timid cat. She picked up her quirks pretty quickly. I can’t recommend her enough!

Carolyn is exceptional. She is a good friend, and we are both full-time pet-sitters. In addition, Carolyn has been my own cat-sitter! She gives just as much love to her clients' cats as they do. She cares for my skittish, terrified cat in a gentle way that suits and doesn't scare my cat, while also caring for my Velcro cat in a loving way that suits him and satisfies his need for constant attention. Carolyn is gentle, compassionate, and able to administer medication orally, with or without syringe. Carolyn is thorough, informing me when one of my cats had an upset tummy (which Carolyn cleaned up upon discovery). Carolyn pays attention to every detail, as I see in the funny observations Carolyn texts me about each cat's distinct personality. She really is the best. As a fellow pet-sitter, I look up to her for her level of customer service, professional knowledge, and devotion to pets. As a client, I am grateful to her for the top-notch love and care she gives to my kitties. As a friend, Carolyn is a cool person, both kind and professional, who loves working with cats and their humans. Just go ahead and hire her. You'll be grateful for the peace of mind, knowing that your kitty is in the best possible hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Saint Louis 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 $23.00. 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.
