Hi I’m Rachel and the first thing you should know is I am a lifelong lover of animals! Especially cats. I have always had a passion for learning about cats and developing friendships with as many cats as possible.

I have a long history of cat sitting for family and friends which I have absolutely loved.

I am a Speech-Language Pathologist who has many years experience meeting and developing positive ongoing relationships with other people’s cats. It is the highlight of my experience working in home healthcare.

I have both owned my own and watched cats since I was a child and love each opportunity to meet a new furry friend! I’m looking forward to meeting more cats and giving them the highest level of care and best experience possible.

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

I have frequently watched my family and friends’ cats for the last 10 years. I have experience checking in to handle food, play and litter box care. I am sensitive, gentle and loving and will care for your cat like I would my own.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I most enjoy meeting different cats and learning about their unique personalities! Each one is so special in its own way. I love trying to bring them the most positive individual experience in our time together.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite past reservation is a sweet cat named Kiki! She started out so shy and reserved and by the time our week was done we were fast friends.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I am the owner of one indoor cat Salmon AKA Sami who I absolutely adore. I had many indoor and outdoor cats while growing up.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I always double check everything! Most especially making sure windows and doors are secured and there are no safety risks present.

We have a very skittish one year old tabby that Rachel has incredible patience with. She takes great care of her when we are gone and we have zero worries when she is there with her. We highly recommend Rachel and will continue using her in the future.

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.

Delaware cat sitting rates will vary based on the sitter's experience and services, but the average price is $24.00. 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!
