My name is Maggie and I have had cats since birth! As a baby, my cat Sassy would jump into my crib and cuddle me when I was crying. I’ve never lived without a cat, so I have ample experience taking care of them. I currently have two cats, Pepper a tuxedo and Minnie a tortie! I am extremely flexible and can cater to whatever you and your cat’s needs are. I love to play with them and encourage the shy ones to break out of their shells while still respecting their boundaries. Let me know what you need and I will be happy to work with you and your furry loved one!

Learn More About Maggie

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to know and spend time with a variety of different cats. Each and every cat is special and I will always treat them as such!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have two cats — Pepper, a tuxedo, and Cinnamon (affectionately nicknamed Minnie), a tortoiseshell! We call them the spice girls :)

What is your favorite cat toy?

I absolutely love a wand of any kind! Feathers or string or bells, we love them all. I of course always put them somewhere out of reach when the kitties aren’t being supervised.


Medication Experience:

Topical Ointments Eye/Ear Drops Oral Medication / Pills

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.

Astoria cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $31.00. 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 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. 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 free Meet & Greet!
