I'm a cat lady through and through and currently share my home with two rescue babies, Bill and Paco.

I've grown up with cats and have cared for them through all life stages. I have experience administering all kinds of medications, including insulin and subcutaneous fluids and have found success with even the most impatient cats.

How I conduct my visits often depends on the cat(s) for whom I'm caring. I'm just as happy participating in active play with a cat who likes to move as I am curled up with a certified lap cat. I like to bring a hobby, such as a book or knitting project, that never fails to get a cat interested.

Learn More About Jess

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to establish a relationship, no matter how short, with new cats. I find the quirks each personality has to be so fun to learn and experience. Of course, giving fellow cat parents peace of mind that their babies are taken care of is an added bonus.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I have been an ongoing, dedicated sitter for two sisters who I fostered as kittens back in 2023. It's been so fun continuing to get to see them and watch them blossom into beautiful adult cats over the years!

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes! I tend to stay in the area during most holidays and am happy to help care for your kitties while you're away!

Jess was awesome! She took great care of our two cats, made sure each of them got their correct dinner portions, and spent extra time playing and cuddling with them. We also received daily cat pictures from her visits. She left the house just as clean as it was before our trip. Would strongly recommend!

Jess went above and beyond for my kitties’ needs. I had an extended work trip and one of my cats required daily pills and she was able to assist no problem! She also tackled issues with my apartment elevator being out and never once made me feel like me or my cats were a burden. I HIGHLY recommend. 🥰 I felt at ease that my cats were in good hands.

Jess was amazing. She handled everything we asked and more. One of the cats required medicine and was fussy about it, and she handled it like a pro. Highly recommend.

Jess was great, did everything she said she would. one of my cats is very very avoidant of new people, however after only a few visits she would stay near Jess for food and not hide! Trxt updates were consistent and clear. Thank you Jess!

Everything was purr-fect! Jess showed up at agreed upon dates/times and took great care of my babies. She even got my shy girl to come out from under the bed!

Jess did a great job taking care of Lucy! She was much more mellow after we got back than usual, meaning she felt loved and cared for while we were away. Would definitely book again!

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.

Charlotte 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 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!
