Learn More About Joy

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

When I was younger, I used to cat-sit for my family. My aunts have had cats for as long as I can remember, as well as my dad for a while. I was the one people asked for when they went on vacation and I was only too happy to accommodate! I'll be celebrating 3 years with Meowtel in July 2025! This whole experience has been really enjoyable. I feel safe and prepared, and like I can really focus on the cats I sit for, knowing how well support I am.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I know this feels obvious, but the cats! When you reserve me, you will probably get too many pictures and videos of your little ones. They are so precious :) - I love playing with them of course, but my absolute favorite is when they trust me enough to let me give them pets and scratches and belly rubs! Your cats personality is unique and I'll do my best to help them be themselves.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

I've had a few similar experiences, but my favorites are when a skittish cat, who rarely comes out for strangers, warms up to me and feels safe enough to approach and get pets! There's no greater feeling than winning over a precious shy kitty! This doesn't always happen, but when it does, it's magic.

Joy was fantastic at looking after our little cats. She sent great photos and videos and was incredibly responsive. It’s always hard leaving them but with Joy you really felt like she cares about them as much as you do. She took time to play with them and got their trust really quickly. Would highly recommend!

Joy was once again a great cat sitter for my 3 cats. She is communicative and send great visit reports! My kitties love her and look forward to their visit. 2 of my cats are on medications and Joy was really good at following directions and administering the meds to them. I highly recommend Joy! 🐈

Joy took wonderful care of Luna for about a week over the holidays. She sent plenty of pics and videos and kept us up to date on how Luna was doing. Would highly recommend Joy!

Joy took such good care of my 2 kitties. She went out of her way to make friends with my shy kitty and expertly administered medicine to my other kitty. Joy was very accommodating with my last-minute sitter request and her intro visit put me at ease. I will definitely seek out Joy for my future cat sitting needs. Meowtel is an A+ service.

Kelly

This is our third time booking Joy for our three girls. She is always responsive and checks in to make sure nothing has changed with instructions prior to us leaving. She messages when she’s on the way to the house and not only sends pictures but videos. It cracks me up that our VERY shy girl absolutely loves Joy. Vacation is always nice but the extra feeling of happiness upon receiving pictures and updates and piece of mind knowing your fur babies are being well loved in your absence is priceless. I can’t say how highly we recommend Joy

Frequently Asked Questions

Flushing cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $35.00. Prices will also depend on how long your cat needs company for, whether that be a drop-in visit or overnight stay in your home. Meowtel sitters offer 20, 45, and 60-minute drop-in visits that allow for fully tailored care for your kitties. Your caregiver may also need to charge a little more if they have to travel far, so we'll match you with the best options which are close by.

Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in 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 for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.

We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.

Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
