I’m not the kind of sitter who just scoops the box and leaves—I’m there to be your cat’s personal fitness coach and entertainer. Whether it’s a marathon session with the laser pointer, mastered feather wand techniques, or figuring out that tricky puzzle feeder, I make sure your kitty gets the mental and physical stimulation they crave.

High-Energy Playtime & Professional Ear Scratches 🧶

If your cat has the "zoomies" at 3 AM or thinks every stray hair tie is a mortal enemy, we’re going to get along famously!

Hi, I’m Jessy, and I specialize in keeping active, curious, and high-energy cats entertained while you’re away. I’m not the kind of sitter who just scoops the box and leaves—I’m there to be your cat’s personal fitness coach and entertainer. Whether it’s a marathon session with the laser pointer, mastered feather wand techniques, or figuring out that tricky puzzle feeder, I make sure your kitty gets the mental and physical stimulation they crave.

While I love a good chin scratch and playtime, my primary focus is the safety, health, and meticulous care of your cat and your home.
I understand that leaving a cat who requires medical attention—or a kitten with a knack for getting into trouble—can be stressful. That’s why I bring a clinical level of detail to every visit. I am CPR trained and highly experienced in medical administration, ensuring your cat’s health routine never misses a beat while you’re away.

Lastly "My Clean & Clear" Guarantee for every visit:

Medical & Safety First: Accurate dosing of all meds and a "Safety Sweep" of your home (checking locks, stoves, and hazards).

The Gold-Standard Litter Box: I don't just "scoop"—I keep the area tidy and track habits for any health changes.

Freshness Protocol: Water fountains/bowls are scrubbed and refilled daily; food areas are kept crumb-free.

Home Management: I ensure your mail and packages are brought inside immediately to keep your home looking occupied and your deliveries safe.
Post-Visit Tidiness: I’ll leave your home exactly as I found it (or better!), so you return to a calm, clean sanctuary and a very happy cat🩵

Thank you for taking the time to read my bio, I look forward to meeting you and your feline family!

Learn More About Jessy

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

Well I've been a cat parent for the last 12 years, and I've been cat sitting for 4 years with meowtel. I'm also trained in feline cpr.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

Besides meeting some of the sweetest kitties ever, playtime is my absolute favorite. I love taking silly pictures of your cat engaging in hunting games or rolling around with catnip kickers or just being goofy.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

Not to pick favorites because all kitties are pawmazing! Some of my most favorites are the ones I get to bond with your cat thru playtime or snuggles or just hanging out watching the birds.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Don't be afraid to ask questions, the more details the better. There's no such thing as over preparing your house to make life easier for your sitter and safer for your cats. Never hesitate to reach out to your sitter, we're always available.

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

I like to meet clients well before the reservation, I ask for a tour of the home, and always send a recap of our meet after the visit with instructions of what to leave before the reservation starts. Right before the reservation begins I make sure I know what time they're leaving and returning in case of any changes. I always give my contact info in case the app isn't working properly.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I ask every pet parents to install a camera for two reasons. You'll know your house and cat/s are safe when I'm not there and if I can't find your pet you can always access the camera and find them if they're hiding. I always double check all doors and windows after every visit and make sure everything is safe.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, holidays are a busy time for travel so I make sure to have open availability.

What is your favorite cat toy?

I personally love interactive toys, especially if the cat is home alone, it keeps them busy. But if I'm playing with them, feather wands and lasers are a must!

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

I give them time, I never force them to interact with me, I tend to have silly conversations with them, play close by and make sure they get snacks, and food close by so they get use to me. Having patience's is extremely important when dealing with an animal/s who has social anxiety.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jessy did an absolutely fantastic job taking care of my two kitties, Daisy and Hermione, while I was out of town for five days. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to look after my babies. Daisy requires insulin injections twice a day, and Jessy handled that responsibility wonderfully. She made sure both cats were fed and had fresh water, kept the litter boxes clean, and even took care of any little messes they left behind. What really stood out was how thoughtful, compassionate, and caring Jessy was. She even brought over toys to play with Daisy and Hermione and made sure they received plenty of attention while I was away. Every day, she sent me wonderful pictures along with a summary of how they were doing, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. It’s not easy leaving your pets behind, especially when one requires medication, but Jessy made the entire experience worry free. I came home to two happy, well cared for kitties. I would absolutely trust Jessy with Daisy and Hermione again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter. Five stars all the way!

Jessy is a terrific pal for our cat when we are away. She is so thoughtful about playing, cuddling, and giving truly personal attention with each visit. Jessy’s communication is great, with photos and updates each day. We feel so lucky to have found Jessy to be confident that Lulu is in excellent care when we are out of town.

We were very nervous about leaving our two kitties for 2 weeks while being out of the country for the first time, but we could not have asked for a better experience for the kitties. Jessy was fantastic with not only her care for the kitties but also her communication. We were updated daily on food, litter, moods, and cute pics of play. Jessy was even able to help us navigate an allergy with one of our kitties and helped us switch the food while we were away. I would highly recommend Jessy to any friends/family!!

Jessy is so committed to her cat visits, giving so much attention to our cat with playtime and cuddles. She even brought a new toy that our somewhat ambivalent cat now loves to chase! We love getting photos and videos while we are away to reassure us that all is well. Jessy is a true professional, and we feel so lucky to have found her to take such good care of our cat.

Jessy did a wonderful job looking after our two cats! Our cats are very shy but one actually came out during her visit which was great! She kept us updated on how things were going with pictures and went above and beyond when there was bad weather and surprise package deliveries. An absolutely wonderful cat sitter!

I am so thankful for Jessy! I found myself needing care for my two cats, one of whom is a senior 18yr old who needs just a little extra care, during a busy holiday week and on short notice. Jessy accepted my request and was phenomenal with communication, sent daily updates and pictures of my cats, and genuinely went above and beyond making sure they had everything they needed from food to playtime. I would highly recommend her and her services to anybody needing a trustworthy, reliable and communicative caretaker for their furbabies. Very happy I found her and will surely hope to rebook her in the future for my cat care needs!

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.

Derry cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $28.00. 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!
