Learn More About Kristie
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
My experience with cat sitting started two years ago, when I signed up to foster cats for my local animal shelter. I have fostered over five different cats for short-term intervals of at least a week and up to 45 days.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Yes, I am generally available. I grew up close by, so I do not need to travel during the holiday season.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I am no stranger to timid or anxious cats! I’m a very patient and calm person, and I always let the cat set the pace. I allow them to approach me first and I never force/pressure them for interaction. I make sure to check in on them in their preferred hiding spot and closely monitor their litter box and food and water intake.

Kristie did a pre-visit to meet Napoli and we went over all the details for him. Kristie then took care of Napoli for 7 visits. She was reliable, she played with Napoli which he loved and took care of food and water. Kristie sent great pics of how all was going. We had a good experience with Kristie!

Kristie was a dream come true for us! She took wonderful care of my two Senior Kitties. She went above and beyond the basic care I was looking for. Any kitty and kitty parent would be lucky to have her sit for them. She communicated with each visit and provided me with many photos. She is reliable and has a sweet personality too! She left me a very sweet note for when I returned home. I've already booked her for some future visits! Highly recommend!

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.
Parsippany cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $26.00. 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!
