I'm Lauren | Cat Sitting in Jersey City, NJ
Hi! I’m Lauren - Project Manager by trade in Jersey City covering downtown JC, and some parts of Hoboken. I’ve been watching and fostering cats for many years and enjoy getting them ready for their forever home. I absolutely love getting the chance to interact, take care of and provide safe, comfy care for kitties (even the shyest kitties seem to come around to me!!). I have taken care of and fostered cats for over 5 years! I am a foster coordinator for a local NYC rescue. We work to save about 100 animals a month! I have experience administering oral meds, vaccines and other medications. I am committed to making sure your cat is as comfy and happy as can be! A 20 mi...

Lauren's Reviews
Alex
Lauren was incredibly responsive and such a pleasure to work with. She took great care of our two cats on short notice, and provided great updates and images while we were away. I’d highly recommend booking Lauren the next time you’re looking for a sitter!
Katherine
Another great cat sit by Lauren! I’ve trained her now on taking my kitty’s blood sugar using a glucose meter and she’s giving her insulin too. These are not tasks I trust to just anyone but I have great confidence and trust in Lauren. Thanks again!

Lauren could not have been a better sitter for my cats. She is smart, responsible, responsive, and cheerful. We have a rather complicated feeding and pilling regimen for my senior cats and she took it all on without any problem. Lauren texted me with photos and updates and even went above and beyond to clean up puke on our carpet and bed. When there was a possibility that my flight home would be canceled due to weather, she made herself available in case she needed to make an additional visit. Most of all, our cats were really comfortable with her and I arrived home to two very happy kitties. You would be very lucky to have Lauren as your cat sitter, cannot recommend her enough!

Lauren was amazing! My cat can be shy when meeting new people but she immediately warmed to Lauren. I received extensive updates and photos and was put at ease knowing my cat was being loved and taken care of, will definitely be using Lauren again!

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.
