Cat Sitting in Glenside, PA
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. If your kitty is shy and wants to hide under the bed, that's ok... 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.

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.

I reserved Jill last minute before heading out on an impromptu trip. She was super easy to communicate with and offered to visit our apartment to meet the kitties and get the lay of the land beforehand. Jill is incredibly sweet and provided fabulous care. She sent photos during every visit and gave us complete peace of mind while away. I will definitely use Jill again for future trips.

We are so happy to have found Jill through Meowtel. She is a true natural with cats, and even our shy girl warmed up to her immediately during our meet-and-greet. We also have a diabetic cat who requires two insulin injections daily, and felt at ease leaving him in Jill's capable hands. We'd recommend Jill to any other cat parent or guardian.

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!

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!
