Cat Sitting in Edison, NJ

Hiya! I have been a pet parent for nearly 20 years and have been pet sitting for even longer as the go-to pet sitter in my family! I love how much personality animals have, especially cats! There’s a reason why they are so popular on the internet! But I know how much hard work goes into keeping them happy and healthy after having two of my own kitties, Dexter and Autumn, plus my (and don’t tell your cats!) high-energy Siberian Huskies Fozzy and Willow.

Hiya! I have been a pet parent for nearly 20 years and have been pet sitting for even longer as the go-to pet sitter in my family! I love how much personality animals have, especially cats! There’s a reason why they are so popular on the internet! But I know how much hard work goes into keeping them happy and healthy after having two of my own kitties, Dexter and Autumn, plus my (and don’t tell your cats!) high-energy Siberian Huskies Fozzy and Willow.

For our cat-sitting visits, I will tailor the experience to your specific needs, including: accurate nutrition and food intake, playtime and keeping their brains active, lots of scritches if they would like and allow, and making sure vital health care is administered and observed. I will try and give them all the love and care that they would receive from you!

I value communication and keeping to your high expectations of impeccable care. Hope to meet you and your cat soon!

Learn More About Julie

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

The most important advice I would give to someone hiring a cat sitter is to trust yourself. If something feels off then go with your instincts!

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

I have Siberian Husky dogs who are known escape artists. I will check every nook and cranny for their safety and that’s exactly how I treat my clients, whether it’s physical or emotional space.

Are you usually available during holidays?

I am available most holidays, my family is local and usually sticks together around the holidays and doesn’t travel often.

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

I will never force a cat to be pet if they do not feel comfortable. I always use a calm voice and allow them to approach me as they adjust to a new person in their space.

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills Injections / Diabetic Management Subcutaneous Fluids

our first time with Julie and she did an excellent job. Our cat likes to escape when we open the door and Julie reassured me that she would be extra careful coming in/out. She is also very responsive/ on time, always keeps me posted about everything. Will definitely book with Julie again in the future.

Julie was absolutely amazing. She gave me detailed updates of every visit as well as a picture. She even went through the effort of trying to find my cat in his various hiding places and taking pictures of him there so I could see that he was ok. she brought in packages that arrived while I was gone and communicated with me through out the week and asked any questions that she may have had about my preferences or needs. Julie is welcome back to sit for me and Onyx anytime!

I can't recommend Julie highly enough! She took such great care of our three cats. We have a senior cat who required daily medication, and is very difficult to medicate. I was very worried about leaving him, but Julie was so patient with him and made sure he got his medication. She went above and beyond to make sure he was ok. She was so great about sending pictures and communicating, as I was very nervous (and annoying) about leaving him. We are so grateful to have found Julie and very much hope she will be available for our next trip away.

Julie did an amazing job! She set up a quick meet and greet with Quinn before my long work trip, which really put my mind at ease. Communication was great the entire time, and I loved getting photo updates every day. She kept me informed about anything that seemed out of the ordinary and followed all instructions perfectly. Overall an amazing experience, I’ll definitely be booking with Julie again!

Severely attached to my cats and hermit crabs and didn’t have to worry about them while I was away because Julie made me so comforted. Followed instructions that were left and came home to a spotless house with happy pets. Got updates and pictures which were so appreciated. Couldn’t ask for a better person to have cared for my pets. Will definitely book with Julie again!!

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.

Edison 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 free 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 free Meet & Greet!
