Learn More About Jenelle
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
First, I love meeting new kitties. I’ve never met a cat I didn’t like ☺️! Second, I like helping kitties feel at ease and cared for while their pet owners are away. Lastly, as a cat mom myself, I enjoy connecting with pet owners and providing them with a sense of ease while they’re away.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
Yes, I have two cats - Charlie & Finnegan. They’re my world and my babies 🥰! They have very different personalities. Charlie is more shy, but also very playful and food motivated. Finnegan is very cuddly and social! He had health issues in the past, so I’m familiar with giving medications and an inhaler. Having cats makes me more equipped as a cat sitter and more aware of what typical cat behavior is.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?
I know that entrusting a sitter with your cats can be scary and anxiety-producing! One great thing about Meowtel is that the vetting process for cat sitters is pretty thorough! You have to do a video interview as well as have at least a few references. Beyond that, I encourage you to take time to look at the sitters’ reviews, learn if they have cats themselves, and prioritize a meet and greet so you can see if you’re comfortable with them. If something feels off, see if you can find other options and trust your gut so you’re not worried while you’re away!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I like to schedule a meet-and-greet to make sure we’re both comfortable and to get to know your kitties. During this time, I’ll want to learn about things like their feeding schedule, favorite activities, any special needs, and what’s important to you in a cat sitter. This includes learning how many updates/photos you would like me to provide you with while you’re away!

I’ve seen firsthand how great Jenelle is with cats. She’s patient, calm, and naturally attuned to what cats need, whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking closely to a routine. Cats seem to warm up to them quickly, and that says a lot. I have one cat who is a hider and he came out when she was there! I would absolutely recommend Jenelle to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring cat sitter.

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.

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!
