I'm Selena | Cat Sitting in Lyndhurst, NJ

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 Hiya!! My name is Selena, and my husband and I live in Lyndhurst with our little girl cat Mango 🐱. As a long time private home caretaker for special needs children, I’ve had the privilege to take care of many kitties. I’ve owned and fostered rescue cats all my life, and regularly help neighborhoods to trap and home strays. You’ll probably find me on the side of the road at any given time trying to track a kitty down! I’m CPR certified, experienced with administering topical and oral medications, subcutaneous fluids, and grooming. I’m also fully Covid vaccinated. The style I approach cats with is similar to caring for a baby! I’m very chatty, making sure I talk through each step I take, and keeping them company with my voice. I think they also appreciate getting down to their level, so I’m often on the ...

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

I’ve been working in private homes with pets for 10 years, I’ve owned cats my whole life, fostered kittens, and watched friends and family’s cats many times.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cuddles!! When I see a cat start to trust me, it warms my heart. For the kitties who don’t enjoy cuddles, I love playtime with feather toys!

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I worked for a family with three cats who had decided to rescue a fourth. That kitty became my best friend and I miss him constantly!

Our cat is our baby, and in seven years, we’ve never left him with anyone other than family. We were super anxious, but needlessly so—Selena did such a great job with him!! It really put our minds at ease. He’s a shy boy and she got him to warm up further and faster than we’ve ever seen. We came home to a happy, healthy boy and couldn’t be happier!

Selena helped take care of my super senior kitty over the Thanksgiving holiday! She helped give her medication and kept her comfortable and entertained while I was away. Selena went above and beyond to make sure my cat was well taken care of 😊

Selena is so kind and takes such good care of Percy! I know that he is in good hands when we aren't home.

Selena, like other great Meowtel care givers, did a perfect job with my older guy - he has some finicky issues with foods and therefore meds. Selena came on time and reported and sent photos to me in a timely manner. She even went out of her way to buy and supply a vitamin mix. I highly recommend her.

Selena was wonderful at caring for our four cats and even giving our one cat pills. She was even able to get our anxious kitty out for some pets and love!

The Meowtel Promise & Satisfaction Guarantee

We are proud to provide each of our independently-contracted Meowtel cat sitters with the full benefits of our Meowtel Promise on eligible reservations. For reservations where each visit is at or above $20 and paid for through Meowtel, your cat(s) will automatically be covered under our insurance policy in the event that things don't go as planned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lyndhurst cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $33.00. 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.
