Cat Sitting in Cary, NC

I can't remember a time in my life when there wasn't a cat or two around and I really do enjoy their unique personalities, even the grummy ones, lol

Weather is bottle feeding a tiny kitten, training a young cat with a strong toy or gently encouraging and elderly cat to eat, to me it's been a pure joy to get to know each one.

Not every cat is ...

Not every cat is the same, so I love to get the pet parents advice on what their baby would like best and take care of their needs based on what they are use comfortable with. I have worked with cats who needed medications, eye drops or had special needs, so please just let me know what is needed.

I am new to this app, but have plenty of referrences upon request.

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

I have taken care of 100's of cats over the years. Did my first paid cat sitting job when I was only 10 or 11, was a cat parent to many and kept many fosters over the years.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

No matter how sassy or shy a cat is they all just want to feel loved and safe, when they do their true charactor comes alive.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I was in Texas and had never met the cats, the pet parent told me that two of the three cats were super shy and I migh not even see them in the 2 weeks I was to be there. The people had left earlier in the day and I arrived well after midnight, dead tired from a long journey, I got in bed and within minutes all the cats were laying on me. They all followed me around all day, every day I was there. We had great fun. Got some really great photos and the pet parents were amazed.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I don't have any kitties right now, but my last kitty was named Bubbles and he traveled all over the United States with me.

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

Go with your gut. Everyone in this app has been vetted, but not everyone will be the right for for you.

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

Every cat is different, but in general I let them come to me. I never knew a cast that didn't eventually do so.

Lillian is awesome. I had two cats I left for 5 days and she took very good care of them. They're very shy cats and I was surprised she made friends with them very quickly. She even gave me daily updates of when she gets to the house and sends pictures of the kitties. She did all I was hoping for and more.

Lillian has helped both my father and I with our pets for several years. She made fast friends with my VERY shy cat and is completely reliable on all fronts. She has also assisted my father with his giant birds. Birds can be very difficult to deal with and she is always so calm and helpful. My father finds her invaluable. I highly recommend Lillian for any of your pet needs. She is very clearly an animal person - she loves them and they love her back!

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.

Cary 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!
