I'm Soni
Cat Sitting in Dumont, NJ
... Hi! My name is Soni, and I started as a 5 star Rover sitter who genuinely loves caring for animals. I’ve spent years looking after pets of all personalities and needs, and I understand that every cat is unique. Some cats enjoy lots of attention and playtime, while others prefer a calm, quiet companion. My goal is always to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
I take pride in being dependable, communicative, and attentive to details. I know how important updates are when you’re away from your pet, so I’ll send photos and messages after visits to give you peace of mind.
I treat every cat as if they were my own and strive to create a positive, stress free experience for both pets and their owners. I look forward to meeting you and your feline friend!

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve been caring for pets for several years and have experience looking after cats of all ages, personalities, and activity levels. I’ve cared for cats who are playful and social as well as those who are shy and need extra patience. I make sure every cat receives fresh food and water, a clean litter box, plenty of attention, and care tailored to their individual needs. My goal is always to help cats feel comfortable and stress free while their owners are away.
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, make sure doors and windows are secure, and double-check that cats cannot access anything unsafe. I pay close attention to changes in behavior, eating habits, or overall well-being and communicate any concerns immediately.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I understand that some cats need extra time to feel comfortable around new people. I approach timid or anxious cats with patience, respect their boundaries, and let them interact at their own pace. I use a calm voice, avoid forcing interactions, and focus on creating a stress-free environment. Over time, many shy cats become more comfortable and confident. My goal is always to help them feel safe, secure, and cared for while their owners are away.

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.
Dumont cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
