I grew up around cats, my whole life, so I am familiar with how needs might change as cats age. I currently have two cats of my own. I have experience with cat sitting for many families and that also includes cleaning, and medication administration. I am a volunteer cat socializer at a local animal rescue.

Outside of cat sitting I do have a full-time job, which is teaching. When I am not teaching or cat sitting, you can find me spending time with my own cats, spending time with family, cooking, kickboxing, and reading.

Learn More About Jennifer

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

I have been cat sitting for a few years. It initially started as cat, sitting for family and friends, I then expanded and now have a handful of clients.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I enjoy most about cat sitting is building rapport with each cat. I truly believe that our pets are part of our family so my priority is to treat them like one of my own while you are away.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently have two cats of my own. They are both male cats named Dart and Reggie. They are truly a joy in my life.

Are you usually available during holidays?

During the holidays, I am typically available. I am a teacher so I do get federal holidays off, which actually opens my availability a little more.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

As a volunteer any local animal rescue their requirements that I have to meet, and some of those requirements include training. Most recently, I took a training on Cat body language and humane handling. Just like humans, a cat behavior is a way that they communicate. How I handle timid, or anxious cats is being aware of their body language, and the signals that they are giving off, and going at their pace.

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.

Clay cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $22.00. 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!
