I'm Katie | Cat Sitting in Hampton, NH

A compassionate cat lover, I love cats! As a baby I slept with a cat in my bassinet, as it was the only thing that would get me to stop crying when I had colic, & at age 5 I helped rescue a stray kitten, before I knew it we had 22 kittens & 4 cats! I grew up around cats of all ages & even watched a litter of kittens be born. I’ve always felt a close connection to cats, as a child I was the cat Dr, I helped de-tick & de-flea cats, I made a cat family tree to keep trac...

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

To ensure safety & security I check the whole house for any possible toxic plants, rodent bait or traps, human food that’s secured or any items that could harm a cat’s health or life. I also check to make sure all windows & doors are closed & secured, that there’s no food, liquids or products that may intrigue a cat to get into that would be harmful for them. If there’s other animals in the home I make sure all animals are secure in a way they all feel & are safe with each other. I make sure cats have multiple hiding places that are safe in case they feel anxious, I make sure their litter box is clean, and that they have clean water dishes, food dishes, clean water & fresh food. I also make sure the temperature of the home is comfortable enough for a cat.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes - I am available to cat-sit on holidays, my schedule is flexible & I am happy to accommodate your needs.

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

Growing up I had cats that were timid & anxious, I’ve also cared for anxious cats as an adult. I handle this by staying calm, respecting their space & boundaries, making sure they have a comfortable & clean environment, fresh food, clean water, clean litter box, and make sure there’s nothing that’s causing them immediate stress. I will slowly see if they will sniff my hand or let me pet them. If they seem open I will gently pet them, see how they respond then take it from there. I gradually let them get to know me & take things slow.

Katie is absolutely wonderful! While we were away for a few days Katie provided twice per day visits for my 2 kitties, one of which requires an inhaler, and she mastered that very quickly! She is kind, detail oriented, and is a clear communicator. She has an obvious love and dedication to cats, which I appreciate tremendously. Katie is highly recommended!

Katie is kind, professional, and thoughtful. She treats all animals with empathy and dignity, and has a particular strength in working with cats. She has looked after my cats in the past, and I trusted no one more than her to address their many emotional and medical needs. When you have Katie looking after your cats, you have someone who will take the time to understand them and care for them like they were her own. She’s raised two beautiful cats of her own, and she will keep your cats safe and happy too.

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Hampton cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $26.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
