Kitties Are My Passion

I'm Jill

Cat Sitting in Glenside, PA

Hi, my name is Jill! I've had cats for 40+ years. I cannot imagine my life without them. I currently share my home with two fuzzballs. All are rescues. Their names are Bloo and Gracie, When Gracie was rescued she had a terrible infection in her eyes. subsequently, the vet had to remove them. She is the most loving kitty.

If you have any cats with disabilities, I do not shy away from that. My Gracie gets along just like a cat that has their sight. Bloo is my prankster and likes to get into things. He makes life so interesting!

I have 15+ years of experience as a professional pet sitter. I know how to handle all types of kitty personalities...

I have 15+ years of experience as a professional pet sitter. I know how to handle all types of kitty personalities. If your kitty is shy and wants to hide under the bed, that's ok. I know how to respect their boundaries. If your kitty is playful, we will have a blast. I usually bring a few toys of my own. play is so bonding and essential to a cat's wellbeing.
I will follow all of your instructions to a T. I want you to feel confident in trusting me with your babies.

My primary occupation is pet sitting. Therefore, I am available everyday of the week, except for an occasional day off. if you have further questions please do not hesitate to ask.

I feel so passionately about cats and I would love to get to know you and your furry loved ones! I live in Erdenheim and I service many areas around there. Flourtown, Wyndmoor, Wyncote, Cheltenham, Abington, parts of Ambler, Fort Washinton, Glenside,Chestnut Hill, Mt. Airy, parts of Roxborough, parts , Lafayette Hill. I'm sure I've forgotten some!

Learn More About Jill

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

I have been cat sitting for over 15 years. I follow all instructions the cat parents give me. I also play with the kitties after all chores relating to their care are completed

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I just adore cats. Getting to know a new kitty is so exciting.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

One of my favorite visits was with a very shy kitty. It took some time but I eventually won him over and I was able to pet him and give him lots of love. That was so special to me.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 2 kitties. I mentioned them in my bio. Bloo is 8 and Gracie is 6.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

Someone who is versed in cat behavior. Knowing signs of illness. Someone who is able to follow instructions to the T.

What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?

I always have a meet and greet first with all new clients. This is to insure that the client gets to know me and to make sure the cats feel comfortable with me as well.

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

Safety and security are top priority. I always enter the home slowly to make sure there are no kitties near the door, ready to escape. When leaving the home I always double check that the lock is secure.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes I am available all holidays except for New Years day

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is the feather wand. Most cats really love to chase and jump for the feathers. I use a wand toy with a bell on it foe my cat Gracie because she is blind.

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

The best way to handle a timid or anxious cat is the talk softly to them and never try to physically remove a cat that is hiding.

Jill took great care of my shy kitty over Thanksgiving weekend. Jill sent me a Meowtel message each time she arrived which I really appreciated. Jill stuck to the times I requested (evening/midday/morning) and always stayed the full 20 minutes, even though my cat was hiding. I definitely recommend Jill and look forward to our next reservation!

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.

Glenside 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 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!
