I'm Riley

Cat Sitting in Hattiesburg, MS

Hello! My name is Riley. I adore cats, and have been around them since I was 4 (I’m actually planning to take in a cat in January!) I’m 26 and have pet-sat for at least four years. I semi-regularly cat-sit for friends and colleagues. I have my own car and have a flexible schedule... Hello! My name is Riley. I adore cats, and have been around them since I was 4 (I’m actually planning to take in a cat in January!) I’m 26 and have pet-sat for at least four years. I semi-regularly cat-sit for friends and colleagues. I have my own car and have a flexible schedule currently as I’m in graduate school (as opposed to a 9-5 job). I am super comfortable with cats and would love to give them love while you’re out of town! Alternatively, I’d also love to give them space if they prefer, haha! Happy to refresh food/water, clean litter boxes, etc.

Learn More About Riley

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

My favorite thing about cat-sitting is meeting so many different cats and seeing all of their unique little personalities. If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that they really all do have their own personalities and quirks and are all unique!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I recently cat-sat for one of my professors, and I absolutely fell in love with one of their cats. She was so shy the first few days I visited, but after she warmed up to me she was so curious and social and would follow me around with her big eyes. She LOVED playing and pets on the top of her head!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

The cat that I’m currently planning to take in is one of my family’s cats, Winnie. I absolutely adore her, and my parents have offered her to me partially because of our close bond and also because she and my parents’ other cat are at WAR.

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.

Hattiesburg cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $21.00. 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!
