Hi! I’m Caitlin! As a former owner and current cat sanctuary volunteer, I love spending time with our cat besties. I am a friendly, patient caretaker who is dedicated and responsible.

I am comfortable feeding and caring for kitties. In addition, I am slow and steady for shy cats, provide ample mental enrichment time for energetic cats, and love sitting, petting and being with cats.

I communicate every step of the way with you, sending you photos and videos, and giving important updates.

You can trust me to be respectful of you, your cats, and your home. Can’t wait to meet you and care for your precious ones!

Learn More About Caitlin

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy meeting different kitties and their families and spending time with them. I love knowing that families can trust me to care for their cats.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

At present, I am interested in adoption, but I had two cats growing up. Their names were Whiskers and Fluffy and we loved them for 18 years.

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

My typical process after chatting and setting up a meet and greet is: 1. Attend a meet and greet to meet the cat parent and cat. Communicate with the cat parent to ascertain any requirements for care or the home. Communicate logistics. 2. During visits, maintain a safe, low-stress, predictable environment and meet the needs of both the cat(s) and the cat parent. 3. Send updates through phone calls, texts, and photos and videos. Keep in frequent communication and let cat parents know of immediate issues or behavior concerns. 4. At the end of the visit, give cat parents a walk through, update on behavior and concerns, if any. Hand off the keys.

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.

Princeton cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $27.00. 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!
