I moved to the area 3 years ago and have fallen in love with North Carolina. In university I worked at a vet clinic for years taking care of cats and dogs during boarding stays and after medical procedures. I grew to love animals and all of the love and care that pets provide to their owners, and that owners provide to their pets! Now I work in education and continue to care for pets. I care for my own pets and look forward to helping you care for yours!

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

I worked at a vet clinic for several years caring for cats and kittens during boarding and after medical procedures.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love how much personality cats express to us right from the first time we meet them. It's fun to get to know them and their unique mannerisms.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I want to make sure I understand ALL of the specific needs of each cat or kitten and of their owners so that you can feel comfortable leaving your loved ones in my care.

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.

Chapel Hill cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
