I'm Sarah | Cat Sitting in Jersey City, NJ

20+ year’s experience in kitty care with a passion for compassionate care for cats and their guardians, low stress handling, veterinary medicine, feline behavior, and animal welfare. I love all things feline! I am also very understanding and knowledgeable of cats with fear based behaviors or "cat-a-tude" or "spicy" kitties.

Learn More About Sarah

What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?

I have been assisting people in taking care of their feline friends for over 20 years in many different professional capacities-- including behavior work in animal shelters, veterinary medicine, cat sitting, and emergency veterinary medicine. I have also worked with countless feline lovers and guardians through these positions.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I am passionate about all things cat related so just spending time with kitties, enriching their experience, and connecting with fellow feline lovers are great benefits! I also take pride in doing everything possible to make your kitties experience as stress free as possible and to meet and exceed all your expectations.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! My feline friend is a feisty fellow named “Reznor”. I adopted him many years ago from a local shelter and I completely adore him. He's a very confident guy who only does things on his terms. He is full of personality and some might say some of his quirks have a little "spice" to them so to speak. I also regularly foster kitties in need of a forever home. Usually I take on behavior cases but sometimes medical as well. My current foster was named "The Prez" by the shelter he needed busted out of and he is really coming out of his shell now that his medical quarantine is up. He's very playful but also incredibly sweet and affectionate.

Sarah is extremely reliable and communicative. She follows cat care instructions with ease and sends thorough updates, with pictures, at each visit. She is able to administer medication and is always attuned to any changes in my cat's behavior. She is my go-to cat sitter!

Frequently Asked Questions

Jersey City cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $36.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

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.
