Learn More About Sharon

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new cats, getting to learn their personalities, and providing them comfort and enrichment while their parents are away. One of my favorite moments is when you finally win a shy cat over, and they’re excited to see you walk through the front door instead of hiding under the sofa when they hear the door open.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two- Leica and Luna. Leica is a gorgeous grey cat- one of the softest, and definitely the sweetest cat I’ve ever met. She’s very loving, clingy, and sensitive, and loves playing hide and seek in her tunnel. Luna is my younger tortie- she’s an absolute angel who loves an aggressive head butt and prefers chirping to meowing. I hope she never outgrows her chirps as they’re the cutest thing ever. They both enjoy bird and squirrel watching out of the back windows, and Luna especially enjoys keeping an eye on the neighborhood from the front window.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I will set up time to come by for a ~30 minute meet and greet- both with the parents and the cats to make sure we’re a good fit. I like to try and make sure the cats are at least a little familiar with me prior to the start of our sitting period, so they’re a little more comfortable with me, and also get to know the layout of the home, where to find food, treats, litter box and supplies, toy bins, carriers (just in case), and ensure I have contact info for the vet, and a close friend / neighbor.

Sharon went above and beyond for us and our 3 boys! We had just moved to the area and I didn’t know anyone and was stressing about who would take care of them while we went on a much needed trip to visit family over the holidays. She exceeded our hopes and our shy babies took to her almost immediately! I am an extremely anxious person and have never left kids or pets with anyone but family , and she eased our fears. I did not worry once while we were away and we could not be more grateful. She constantly kept us updated with pictures and videos. We would recommend her ten times over and will absolutely book her for any future sitting needs!

Sharon was great! She was on time, communicative, and personable! She managed to get my shy cat out to say hi, a feat that family members have taken weeks to accomplish! 10/10 ❤️

Sharon was WONDERFUL! she is very friendly, kind and calm. My cat is skittish and nervous with strangers however the first time she met Sharon she walked right up to her. I received many videos and photos during the visits, which made me feel confident knowing my cat looked happy and well taken care of. I will be using Sharon in the future for all vacation needs. I highly recommend.

I cannot recommend Sharon enough! She watched my cat, Mia, for 5 days and did an incredible job. Mia can be a bit difficult to handle, but Sharon was so patient, kind, and attentive. She went above and beyond by sending me daily updates and pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Mia was well cared for and comfortable the entire time. I’m so grateful to have found Sharon and will definitely trust her again in the future!

we have chosen Sharon before and will again because she’s great and our sweet boy loves her, she will play with him and help out with any medications if needed but you can tell she likes cats and cares about them. She also shares pics and videos and will observe and report any odd behavior which is how you feel safer leaving your perfect beany baby home while you travel.

Sharon was great with our kitten, who tends to get lonely and is very sweet and playful. We were so worried about leaving town for a few days but Sharon provided pictures, videos and most importantly was caring and kept us updated on how Nando was doing each visit in detail. Nando tends to hide toys and Sharon brought him more to play with together, which was so sweet and thoughtful. She also was patient with him and administered the medications we asked her to- her own experience with her cats was very reassuring. We would hire her again for checking in when we have to go away!

Sharon was such an awesome sitter for my boy Paulie. Super kind and prompt, I could tell by the pictures / videos she sent that Paulie felt safe and that’s all I could have ever asked for. Thank you Sharon!!

Frequently Asked Questions

Jersey City cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and the services they offer, but the average price for a cat sitter is $31.00. 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. Cat sitters on Meowtel 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 you can find the best options which are close by.

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 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 typically includes 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. Every kitty is different and that's why sitters on Meowtel offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, ask your sitter about a free Meet & Greet so you can meet them before you leave to confirm it's a purrfect fit.
