Cat Sitting in Cincinnati, OH

I'm Stephanie!

My experience with cats starts with my own. I currently have 1 cat, and I've been caring for him for 17+ years. My senior boy is the love of my life, and as a cat Mom I understand the need to feel like your fur-baby is in good hands while you're away.

While I only have 1 cat, I care for several as both a volunteer at a rescue, and working full-time as a Veterinary Receptionist/CSR at an emergency hospital...

My experience with cats starts with my own. I currently have 1 cat, and I've been caring for him for 17+ years. My senior boy is the love of my life, and as a cat Mom I understand the need to feel like your fur-baby is in good hands while you're away.

While I only have 1 cat, I care for several as both a volunteer at a rescue, and working full-time as a Veterinary Receptionist/CSR at an emergency hospital. My role as a volunteer is to medicate cats, and I've been administering oral medications, topical ointments, and eye drops/gels for 7+ years. My experience working at an animal ER has taught me how to better identify cats who may be experiencing emergency situations such as urinary blockages, respiratory distress, etc.

A little about me- I graduated from The University of Cincinnati with a Bachelors Degree in Communications. I consider myself a "Feline Enthusiast" having been to 22 cat cafes (and counting) during my travels. I take pride in caring for cats, and truly enjoy their unique quirks. I cannot wait to meet yours!

I have worked with stephanie several times and she's been SO perfect everytime. This past time i was away for a week and had her visit twice a day for an hour. She sends the cutest pictures and very detailed updates :)) She even let me know when my automatic fountain wasn't working and sent pics/videos of my one cat using the water bowl she left out in place of it to assure me my two kitties had water. I also recently moved so she took the time out of her day to visit and learn the new routine, apartment layout, and parking. She wrote notes down for both of my cats, including to make sure my cats seperate diet needs were taken care of. My cats love stephanie and i feel so much better on my trips knowing she's there with them. She's a sweetheart and booking with her is so worth every penny. When i arrived home from my trip she even left two personalized picture frames with a picture of both of them in each frame. I cried haha it was so sweet!! My cats will be excited to see her again in the future ♡

I’m a firm believer that our cats looks forward to seeing Stephanie when she sits for us. Our cats make them selves right at home in her presence, even our shyest boy does so well with her! He does not like to be touched by strangers but Stephanie’s soft touch always has him loving her pets. She is very communicative and always updates us with pictures and the what she did at our home. I will always go with Stephanie when we are out of town!

Stephanie is AMAZING! We have always struggled to go out of town because we have a cat with separation anxiety which has manifested as aggression in the past. Stephanie was careful and consistent with him and he absolutely loved her! He was so content when we came home - not agitated or upset in the least. She sent us so many pictures of him playing and even cuddling her. Our other cat is extremely shy and Stephanie had her cuddling and playing within days of her watching them. Stephanie sent thorough updates every day and followed all of our directions to a T. It is very clear Stephanie has a heart for cats and enjoys spending time with them. Our cats felt so safe and loved because of her and it made leaving them (which is always hard!) a lot easier. We have already booked with Stephanie again for an upcoming trip and feel grateful to have found her!! I would recommend her over and over!

We had used Stephanie a year ago with our then 11 month old cat Java. She did such a great job with him that we had her back to care for him for 10 days earlier this month. Once again, she was fantastic with him! I believe he remembered her, as she was able to gain his trust quickly; Java played, purred and snuggled with her almost from the start it really helped ease our minds to know he was in such good hands. We especially appreciated the daily updates and awesome photos and videos!

Stephanie is a phenomenal cat sitter. This was the first time I looked to get a cat sitter for my 3 cats during my couple of weeks of travel. And I am so glad that I was able to find Stephanie. From the get go, Stephanie demonstrated genuine care for my cats, with great attention to detail on their needs and specifics on how best to take care of them while I was away, clearly showing her passion for what she does as well as being a pro. Stephanie would check in with me each time she checked on the cats by giving me a text update along with wonderful pictures of the cats that helped me feel staying connected with the kittens. And most importantly, my cats absolutely adored her ! I was really happy to find Stephanie to take care of my cats will definitely look to bring her again when my cats need sitting !

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.

Cincinnati cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $25.00. 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!
