I'm Christian
Cat Sitting in Wood Ridge, NJ
I work at Costco so I ha... Hi, my name is Christian. I come highly recommended by the three cats (two brothers named Captain and Tennelle and a black cat named Evie) I regularly see but since I can't own cats in my current living situation I figured this would be a good way to meet new ones a little more often.
I work at Costco so I have early to mid mornings clear and most of the evening into night for some post meal play times be it breakfast or dinner. I have my own transportation so I will be reliable in my schedule. I have a patient and gentle disposition with animals
Note: my July 5th morning is fully booked. My evenings are possible
Learn More About Christian
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
Questions questions questions. What's their temperament around strangers? What type of food do they mostly prefer compared to other flavors to help comfort them in this short period away from their parent? How often, how many and how do they like to get treats? What toy is their favorite and how do they enjoy their play? Any situations to look out for in terms of behavior or health in particular? Also litter box and garbage disposal process?
How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?
Slip in the door and close it as quickly as possible. Then as soon as possible make an account of all cats inside. After everything is checked out and safe go do what is needed to be done. When leaving making sure to leave the door as open as little as possible for the shortest time and walking backwards in order to make sure no one is trying to make a break for it.
Are you usually available during holidays?
Most holidays, I do not have general going away plans because my family is local. For travel holidays I don't care for crowds so for those holidays i will be avaliable for any and all types of sits
What is your favorite cat toy?
Any ribbon type on a stick. Either put it on the ground for them to pounce or whip it a bit in the air for them to catch.
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
You just have to let them come to you at their own pace and terms. It's important to make sure they are eating and not showing any signs of overt stress but it's important to give cats their territory.

We had such a great experience with Christian! He was incredibly reliable, attentive, and caring with our cats while we were away. One of our cats can be pretty anxious around new people, so we were especially grateful for how patient and gentle Christian was with him. He followed all of our feeding and care instructions perfectly, kept us updated regularly, and sent us photos that gave us so much peace of mind during our trip. We could tell our cats were comfortable and very well cared for. It’s always a little stressful leaving your pets behind, but knowing they were in such good hands made our trip so much easier. We would absolutely book with Christian again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and caring catsitter!

Our sitter was wonderful and incredibly reliable. He helped give our cat his daily seizure medication, brushed all of our cats, and spent time interacting and playing with them. He was very responsive, attentive, and helpful throughout the entire booking, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We truly appreciated the care he provided and would happily book him again!

Christian is a responsible, empathetic, intelligent and communicative caregiver to my cats. I had no worries or problems leaving my senior medicated cat to Christian. He managed his medications to perfection and ensured his dietary needs were followed. Christian ensured both of my cats were given ample of cuddle and play time post meals too. He gave us tons of pictures and videos of ours cats so we always had updates of their well being. I couldn't be happier with the care that my cats received. Christian is completely trustworthy and I would recommend him again and again.

I really appreciated the updates I got daily from Christian and made me feel more at ease from being away from the cats. We gave some pretty particular instructions with the cats (medication, setting up feeders for the next day) and Christian did this all without any complaints!

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.
Wood Ridge cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $29.00. 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!

This is the second time Christian has watched my fur babies and while they are pretty independent and shy, Christian has always brought them out of their shells to play and interact and over time they’ve become more social. Christian is great and asks questions and is all around amazing at what he does. I will book him again in the future.

Chris is such a wonderful person! I recently went away for a little over a week and was worried to leave my 2 cats for so long. Chris made sure to send me daily updates with plenty of pictures which made me feel much better. When I arrived back home Tuxie and Rose acted as if I never even left! They were happy and completely at ease, proving Chris took great care of them. I will definitely be booking him again in the future!

Wonderful experience with Christian. He is incredibly caring, professional, and trustworthy. He takes immense pride in the job he does and it truly shows.
