Cats are my special interest, and I’m often called a “cat whisperer.” My own cat, Hazelnut, is a sweet tortie tabby, and I understand the importance of making your cat feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I respect their space, greet them slowly, and provide care based on their personality. Whether it’s playing, petting, or just giving them space, I tailor each visit to their needs. Your cat’s happiness and safety are my top priority, and I make sure everything is perfect before I leave. Let’s make your cat’s time at home feel as purrfect as possible!

Learn More About Reece

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

I’ve been professionally cat sitting for almost 4 years, and it’s been an amazing experience! I currently care for two cats, Clara and Sprinkle, who I see frequently. Clara has some special needs, and I’m comfortable administering her medication with care. Sprinkle is a playful attention-seeker, and I make sure she gets all the pets and playtime she loves. I also care for Willow, a more skittish cat, who I respect by giving her space and offering pets when she’s ready. I’m passionate about building strong bonds with the cats I sit for and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’d love to help make your kitty’s time away as smooth and stress-free as possible!

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is the chance to connect with each cat, offering them love and care while their owners are away. I find it rewarding to create a safe, comfortable space for them, whether it’s through play, cuddles, or just being present. It’s fulfilling to know that I’m making their time away from home stress-free and enjoyable. Being able to build trust and see cats feel comfortable with me is what makes this job truly special!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have a cat named Hazelnut, a spotted tabby tortie with gorgeous hazel eyes! She started out a bit skittish, but with lots of patience, she’s now a confident, playful sweetheart. Hazelnut loves her “worm on a string” toy (I’ve upgraded it to a wire toy for extra fun!) and will even bring it to me for playtime. She’s an absolute cuddle bug and adores head kisses and belly rubs—especially after I earned her trust with belly rubs as a kitten. She’s got a bit of a mischievous side too, often plotting to steal my snacks! I call her my “nugget thief,” and she’s the little bean who brings so much joy to my life!

Reece was wonderful with our cats when she was at our home but unfortunately, this third time using her she was unreliable-arriving much later at our home than we expected and leaving our cats for much longer hours than we expected due to having a full-time job, watching multiple cats, living 35 minutes away from our home and with unreliable transportation. The latter situation caused us to have to have a nearby family member feed them at 10 pm and Reece finally coming at 11:30 pm to stay the night. Although she apologized multiple times we cannot have these situations during our next trip to Europe so we had to cancel our booking 2 weeks before and find someone else. Reece is great with cats, and ours loved the attention she gave them. Plus she took excellent care of everything else-the litter, taking out the trash, watering plants, picking up the mail, etc. Under different circumstances I would say to use her but make very clear what you expect.

I've rotated out to Ukraine several times... my cats are precious to me... they bring me peace, which in my life is in short supply. I tell you this not to impress you, but to impress upon you that Reece adds to that peace because I know that when I am in a hostile environment that all is well with my furry family. I've never met a better or more attentive cat sitter. Not only that, but she is a genuinely nice person. I have been gone up to a month at a time and never once worried about what was happening with my cats. (I didn't really want to write this as I want to keep her available for my cats and don't want to find she's booked when my furry family needs her... but alas... she is the best and deserves every accolade for her work and her kindness towards Mr. Wiggles [CH Kitty], Ginger, and Midnight.)

Reece has watched over my cat, Penelope, four times in the last two months, and she has been great! On my side, she is punctual and always messages me when she heads over, arrives, and leaves. She also provides very detailed reports and the best photos. Additionally, she has always helped when there were issues, such as taking out the trash or fixing the campers. Reece opens the window so Penelope can feel fresh air and then closes it without fail before she leaves. What is even more important, Penelope really likes her! I can see that in the way she plays with Reece and how happy she is when Reece comes by. She looks happy when I come home, too. All in all, I am very happy that I have discovered Reece and that Reece agreed to work with Penelope and me.

This was our second time booking Reece to look after our two cats and it was just as great as the first time! Reece had no problem giving medication to our picky senior cat and she was very sweet with our other incredibly shy cat. She was conscientious, thorough, reliable, and extremely pleasant. We feel so comforted knowing that we are leaving our cats in such good hands!

Our 2 cats love Reece and are probably looking forward to having her pamper them again! Reece was very attentive to their quirks and spent more time playing with them than we do. She made us feel at ease everyday that we were gone by sending us pictures day and night of them eating, playing, and just hanging out with her. Plus, she took care of the litter as we asked and picked up the mail. Our house was as we left it and with happy cats. We highly recommend Reece and will be booking her again many times this year!

Reece was absolutely phenomenal!! I was initially so nervous to leave my cats, as they have only been watched by family - but Reece took such great care of our three little ones and put me at ease with the photos and videos that were sent each day. When I had an emergency and was required to extend a trip, Reece was incredibly accommodating and made the whole process stress free. I truly could not recommend Reece enough and will definitely book again in the future.

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.

Raleigh 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 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!
