I'm Alessia

Cat Sitting in Fairfield, NJ

Hi, I’m Alessia! 🐾

I’m a lifelong cat lover and a proud cat mom to two cats of my own. They’re both very loved members of our family, and one of them is especially special to me…she’s taught me that cats sometimes need a little extra patience, attention, and care to truly feel comfortable and safe.

I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your cats while you’re away. I’m attentive, gentle, reliable, and I take the time to get to know each cat’s personality and routine...
Hi, I’m Alessia! 🐾

I’m a lifelong cat lover and a proud cat mom to two cats of my own. They’re both very loved members of our family, and one of them is especially special to me…she’s taught me that cats sometimes need a little extra patience, attention, and care to truly feel comfortable and safe.

I know how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your cats while you’re away. I’m attentive, gentle, reliable, and I take the time to get to know each cat’s personality and routine. Whether your cat is social and loves attention, shy and needs some space, or somewhere in between, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in their own home.

I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles (when welcomed!), and of course plenty of love and attention. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages during each visit so you can relax knowing your kitty is doing well.

Your cats will be treated with the same care and affection I give my own. I can’t wait to meet them! ❤️🐱

Learn More About Alessia

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love getting to know new paw friends! Every cat is different and I enjoy playing with them and understanding theirs needs and likes!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have 2 cats. Penelope and Beef Steak. Beef Steak is blind and very cuddly. She is very sweet and always needs to be by us. Penny, on the other hand, is more of a soloist, but she is very playful and fun!

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

I normally let them come to me and sniff me for as long as they need to. I don’t pressure them. I understand they don’t know me and are on the defensive and shy. I typically bring nice snacks and treats, usually it does the trick!

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.

Fairfield cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
