Quirky Cat Loving Redhead

I'm Jade

Cat Sitting in Raleigh, NC

Hi, I’m Jade! I’m a lifelong cat lover and experienced pet care professional with a passion for making cats feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away.

I currently share my home with my two cats, Sunshine, who I’ve had for 11 wonderful years, and Pumpkin Spice Latte, who I’ve raised since she was a tiny kitten and is now 4 years old. Caring for them has taught me that every cat has their own personality, routines, and needs and I treat every cat I care for as if they were my own.

I bring professional experience from working in veterinary clinics, animal shelters, and pet resorts, giving me hands-on experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m also:

🐾 Pet CPR certified
🐾 Fear Free trained, using low-stress handling techniques to help shy, anxious, or nervous cats feel comfortable
🐾 Injection trained, with experience...
Hi, I’m Jade! I’m a lifelong cat lover and experienced pet care professional with a passion for making cats feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away.

I currently share my home with my two cats, Sunshine, who I’ve had for 11 wonderful years, and Pumpkin Spice Latte, who I’ve raised since she was a tiny kitten and is now 4 years old. Caring for them has taught me that every cat has their own personality, routines, and needs and I treat every cat I care for as if they were my own.

I bring professional experience from working in veterinary clinics, animal shelters, and pet resorts, giving me hands-on experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m also:

🐾 Pet CPR certified
🐾 Fear Free trained, using low-stress handling techniques to help shy, anxious, or nervous cats feel comfortable
🐾 Injection trained, with experience administering medications, including insulin and other injectable medications when needed
🐾 Experienced with senior cats, kittens, and cats requiring special care or medications

During my visits, I focus on keeping your cat’s routine as normal as possible. Each visit can include:

🐱 Fresh food and water
🐱 Litter box cleaning and tidying up the area
🐱 Playtime and enrichment based on your cat’s personality
🐱 Cuddles and affection (if your kitty enjoys them!)
🐱 Medication administration if needed
🐱 A full wellness check to make sure your cat is acting normally
🐱 Plenty of photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and cared for

What sets me apart is my combination of professional animal care experience and genuine understanding of feline behavior. I know that not every cat wants immediate attention, and I take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. Whether your cat is social, shy, senior, or has medical needs, I provide patient, personalized care tailored specifically to them.

I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved cats in someone else’s care, and my goal is to make both you and your feline family members feel completely at ease. I can’t wait to meet your kitties and become their new favorite sitter! 🐾💕

Learn More About Jade

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

I’ve been cat sitting on and off for the past 10 years, working with local pet care companies and caring for cats with a wide variety of personalities and needs. Throughout that time, I’ve expanded my knowledge by working in several different animal care settings, including veterinary clinics, animal shelters, and pet resorts. These experiences have allowed me to develop a well-rounded understanding of feline behavior, medical care, and low-stress handling techniques.🐈✨

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available for pet sitting during most holidays, including major holiday weekends when many sitters are booked. The only holiday I am unavailable for is Christmas Day. If you’re planning holiday travel, I recommend booking early to ensure availability!✨ if that should change will definitely let clients know!

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

When caring for timid or anxious cats, I always let them set the pace. I never force interactions or invade their space. Instead, I use my Fear Free training to create a calm, low-stress environment and allow them to approach me when they’re ready. I speak softly, move slowly, and pay attention to their body language so I can recognize signs of stress or discomfort. For cats that prefer to hide, I respect their boundaries while still ensuring they’re safe, eating, drinking, and using the litter box normally. I also try to keep their routine as consistent as possible because familiar routines can help anxious cats feel more secure. Whether a cat wants to play, receive gentle pets, or simply have a quiet companion sitting nearby, I tailor my approach to each individual cat’s needs. One of my favorite parts of cat sitting is earning the trust of shy cats. There’s nothing more✨

I highly recommend Jade as your go-to kitty sitter! She is always very communicative and you can tell she truly cares for your kitties. We have an elderly fella (18 years!) and a young spunky guy. We almost cancelled our trip bc I was concerned about how much extra care our older fella would need, but Jade assured us she could handle his extra needs. You can feel confident you are leaving your kitties in caring, capable, reliable hands with Jade!

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!
