I'm Zachary | Cat Sitting in Clifton, NJ
My name is Zach and I have been an avid animal lover all of my life, but cats have always held the most special position in my heart. When I was an infant my grandparents gifted me my first feline friend, a Siamese kitten named Rosco who was the exact same age I was and I cherished growing up with him and celebrating milestones together. As time went on other cats entered my life and I have loved each one dearly. I grew up in rural South Carolina and there were many strays in the area who needed help. My mother and I took many in, some joined our family permanently, and others we raised and cared for until we were able to find the purrfect forever homes for them. Along with caring for our own cats during my childhood, I also took great joy in catsitting for friends and family members as well as volunteering at local shelters through the 4H club. At the current moment I have one sweet boy named Kruseman, a very playful and silly orange tabby with a lot of personality. He's been part of my little family since he was a kitten born in the Carolinas and he made the move up here with me.

Raquel
As always, Zach was a fantastic sitter for our cats! We love knowing we have peace of mind when we go out of town with Zach caring for them!
Rachael
Zachary was a wonderful sitter! He was patient with our cats as they warmed up and playful with them as soon as they were ready. He sent so many great pics and videos and was a pleasure to communicate with! Can’t recommend him enough!
Derek
3rd time trusting Zach with my cat, never disappoints. My cat, Mimi, knows who he is at this point and is always happy when ge stops by when I’m away. He really takes great care doing this and my cat is always in good hands when I’m away. Tell a friend to tell a friend!
Derek
Zach has watched my cat for me twice now and does a great job. Very friendly and professional.

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $31.00.
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.
