Learn More About Matthew

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

We have three cats! Colefax (black and brown tabby), Mingo (orange / light brown, grey, and a little white tabby), and Opal (long haired black cat). Opal was found under a friend's car at a gas station and I jumped at the opportunity to adopt her when my friend put out a request for someone to take her in. All of our cats are well loved and distinctly quirky.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Unfortunately no, for major holidays at least. I tend to go visit my or my fiance's family. We've used Meowtel, actually, multiple times for this reason!

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

I always let cats sniff me and make their own decision on if I'm allowed to touch them (bumping their head against my hand or letting their head down). If a cat is particularly timid, I might see if they want to play with a toy or (if permitted), see if they would like a treat. This also allows them to get used to my smell. Generally speaking, I allow the cat to approach on their own terms and do not force anything.

Frequently Asked Questions

Middletown cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $24.00. 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.
