I'm Teresa | Cat Sitting in Cincinnati, OH

Hello! My name is Teresa. I have owned cats (or rather they've owned me) most of my life (50+ years). Even when I haven't owned one, cats have adopted me. My best friend calls me the Cat Whisperer. I currently own one very spoiled cat, Smokie, who thinks she's a dog. She travels with us on trips to Florida & also likes to camp with us. We adopted her 10 years ago, a couple of years after our cat of 18 years passed away. I'm guessing she was raised with dogs because she is comfortable around dogs, but gets upset if another cat comes near her. I am currently just pet sitting, so my schedule is pretty open. I prefer late morning visits & into the evening. I'm not a happy person when I need to get up with an alarm clock, lol. I have insomnia, so I am a late night person. I have been pet sitting for several years now & love it!!! I used to live in Colorado during the 80s & 90s. While living there, I raised my daughter & 2 step-sons. I worked for the Postal Service as a clerk & Office-In-Charge, filling in for Postmasters. In 2001, we moved to Homestead, FL. I then worked as a Title Processor & Closer, until a bad car accident in 2004. We moved up to Ohio in 2010 after my father passed away & my mother had a brain stem stroke, to help her out. I'm back living in the house I grew up in. I'm located off the northwestern part of 275, so it's easy for me to get to jobs on the north, west & central parts of Cincinnati. I travel both corridors of...

Learn More About Teresa

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

I've been cat sitting for almost 5 years now professionally. I have experience with up to 10 cats in one household & also with very shy cats to cats that like to supervise & show me around. I also have experience giving pills.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love cats. They also calm me down. I have so much fun being entertained by them that it's easy to lose track of time!

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I currently just have one very spoiled female Russian Blue whom we adopted almost 12 years ago. Her name is Smokie. Our previous cat, who we had 18 years, was a grey tuxedo named Tootsie, who we also adopted. We also owned 2 other cats, brother & sister, who we named Pebbles (a tortie) & Bamm Bamm (strawberry blonde).

Teresa went above and beyond with our three cats. She sent great pictures and videos, and they loved interacting with her. They were happy and healthy when we returned.

Absolutely outstanding! Teresa has taken care of our feline babies twice now, and each time she has exceeded our expectations. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals are evident in the way she cares for our cats. We come home to happy and well-fed pets, which speaks volumes about her dedication and professionalism. She keeps us updated with pictures and messages, which gives us peace of mind while we're away. We couldn't ask for a better caretaker for our cats. Highly recommended!

Frequently Asked Questions

will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $29.00. 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.
