Matt's Peace Of Mind Cat Sitting

I'm Matt

Cat Sitting in Collingswood, NJ

Hi there, my name is Matt and I’m a cat dad and all-around animal lover. The first cat I adopted (or adopted me) was when he sauntered into my house in 2006 and decided to stay. Since then, my wife and I have adopted 3 more cats and I have experience with kittens, adults, and senior cats for over 20 years with our own cats, and through several recent years of volunteering & fostering for local shelters.

In addition to my love for cats and years of experience with all their quirks and behaviors, I am highly organized and a clear communicator from 15+ years spent in the corporate world managing complex global projects. In 2025, I left my corporate career behind to become a dedicated cat sitter!

While you're away: cats are our family members and we want to know they are safe & happy while we travel. I had to travel quite a bit in the past for my prior career and know what it’s like to be away from my cats...

While you're away: cats are our family members and we want to know they are safe & happy while we travel. I had to travel quite a bit in the past for my prior career and know what it’s like to be away from my cats. It’s important to have someone you fully trust caring for them. As your cat sitter, I will ensure that each detail for their care is covered before you leave. On your trip, I will provide you with plenty of updates & pictures from each visit so you can have peace of mind and enjoy your trip.

Ask me about clicker training cats! I'm currently using a clicker to teach my own cats some tricks like high fives and ringing a bell. I'd be happy to try to begin training your cats during my visit! So far I've had success in teaching tricks to cats for multiple clients!

I’m currently a volunteer with Barrington TNR where I care for two feral cat colonies every week. I also regularly volunteer with Tiny Life Rescue in Haddon Heights and the Community Cat Club (in their adoption center at PetSmart Cherry Hill and their new Cat Lounge in Mt Ephraim).

Outside of my love for cats, I enjoy practicing yoga and jiu-jitsu, reading (mostly philosophy and sci-fi), and playing Magic: The Gathering and old-school video games. I'm also involved in a social justice-focused scholarship program at my undergrad alma mater, TCNJ.

If you have any questions, feel free to message me. I look forward to meeting you and your cats!

Learn More About Matt

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

My wife and I have 3 cats: Ralphie (6), Georgie (5), and Missy (4). My first cat Sammy passed peacefully a few years ago when he was 17. My wife and I have also fostered well over 10 cats and kittens over the past few years

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am always available! Expect me to be local and available all holidays and breaks all year round

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

I meet the cat where it's at through patience and respect. Some cats I may never interact with and that's ok, but through a calm presence and patience I'm committed to trying to engage with every cat where appropriate

Matt treated Missy and Ollie with upmost care and love! I even appreciated the attention to detail he had for each of my cats on our meet and greet. Matt kept me updated with daily pictures and videos of him playing with our cats. Also, he was quick to respond with any questions or concerns when we were on our vacation. I will definitely be utilizing his services again in the future! Thanks again!

I’ve now asked Matt to watch my cat multiple times and each time I feel completely comfortable leaving her home alone while he checks in on her. My little one can be a little skittish, but he always manages to atleast have her come say hello before she walks away. Also, two days before I was expected to go away I had to unexpectedly take in my boyfriend‘s cat and we had to put her in a different part of the house because they never met. I let Matt know and asked him if it is OK if he watches her also and he did not hesitate in replying back to me saying that won’t be an issue. He did an amazing job with little to no advanced notice. He was even able to take great pictures of her while she played with him. She is much friendlier than my cat apparently 😹 Matt will absolutely be my go to when I need someone to watch my pets!!

Matt is everything you’d hope your pet sitter would be and more - I can’t praise him enough, truly & honestly. My senior cat is on a bunch of different medications & supplements, and I have 3 additional kitties 1 y/o and younger who I rescued from outside who are still very wary of people - so what I ask Matt to do while I’m away is not easy. He made sure my senior got all of her life-savings meds & even modified the plan a bit when she started getting picky - ensuring she took what she needed. He socialized with my wary babes - giving them pets and churus. He even successfully got my scardiest little one to open up to him which is a huge feat! I am incredibly, deeply thankful to have Matt take care of my little ones while I’m away. I am an anxious cat mom and he eases all of my worries.

Our cat sitter canceled last minute before the holidays so we were so thankful to have found Matt! He was very thorough at the meet and greet which put us at ease leaving Zora with a new sitter over a long break. Visit updates were great! Matt was communicative and honest about little symptoms that were popping up with our cat. Thanks again!

Simply put, Matt is the BEST! I had a pretty stressful family emergency and I had to pretty much up and go without much notice. Matt was extremely accommodating and made sure that we were able to meet before I left (again being super flexible with my short notice) and he was extremely diligent with all the care that was needed. He made sure to send me detailed updates and used the extra time during the reservation to make sure my kitty got her brushes and some play time. He definitely helped keep my kitty's stress and worry down while I was away. Matt is extremely trustworthy and respectful! Definitely keeping him in mind for future!

Matt jumped in last minute to visit my two main coons over the holiday. he had a great vibe with them at our meet& greet, and he knew how to read them and engage where they’re at. he also is great and meticulous about following directions. I have a ton of (probably irrational) fears when I leave my babies at home alone; Matt thinks ahead and anticipates the same, and that level of attention to detail, coupled with getting both my cats to engage and enjoy his company (after only just meeting him), made him a very solid choice to sit them while I needed to be away. when I got back they were so relaxed and nicely cared for. I’ll have no hesitation the next time I book Matt.

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.

Collingswood cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
