Learn More About Hillary

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

Being a devoted cat lover has been a significant part of my life for as long as I can recall. My experience as a cat sitter commenced when friends started relying on me to care for their beloved feline friends during their trips. In 2019, I made a pivotal choice to go back to my hometown, driven by the desire to support and care for my father. This decision also marked a turning point as I decided to take a break from my corporate career in search of a more meaningful and fulfilling path. That is when I connected with Meowtel.

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

What I find most enjoyable about cat sitting is the opportunity to connect with and care for these wonderful feline companions. It's a privilege to create a comfortable and nurturing environment for them while their owners are away. I appreciate the unique personalities of each cat and the joy they bring into my life. Building trust and forming bonds with these furry friends is a rewarding experience, making cat sitting not just a responsibility but a fulfilling and heartwarming endeavor.

Can you tell us about your favorite cat sitting reservation?

My favorite cat sitting reservation is one where I connect deeply with the feline companion. It's particularly rewarding when I befriend the shy, timid, and even the spicy kitties, building trust and creating a comfortable environment. I cherish opportunities to use my experience, especially with cats that have unique needs. The most fulfilling reservations involve not just meeting basic requirements but fostering a genuine connection and providing personalized care that leaves both the cat and the owner content and at ease.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I am servant to four adorable kitties, two sets of bonded pairs. The boys - Nemo & Herbie and The Monsters - Rio & Fiji

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

Choosing a Meowtel cat sitter ensures the best for your feline friend. I bring a wealth of experience and stellar references, assuring top-notch care. With exceptional communication skills, I'll keep you updated on your cat's well-being. My deep understanding of feline behavior creates a stress-free environment. Skilled in medication administration and following a Fear-Free approach, your cat's health & happiness are my priorities. Opt for my dedicated care to provide your cat with the best possible experience while you're away.

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

My approach with new cat parents prioritizes a thorough intake process during the meet & greet. I delve into your cat's specific needs, routines and any unique preferences. This detailed discussion covers feeding, litter box routine, medications, playtime and emergency plans. By focusing on the specifics during this meeting, I ensure a personalized and comprehensive understanding of your cat's requirements, fostering a tailored and trustworthy experience for both you and your feline companion.

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

After losing Nemo and finding him with The Lost Cat Finder's help, I've become hyper-vigilant, especially with open doors. I ensure doors are secure to prevent escapes, leveraging past experience to enhance cat safety. Additionally, I employ effective tricks for cats prone to door-darting, adding an extra layer of precaution during my cat-sitting endeavors. My commitment is to create a secure environment, learned through personal challenges, emphasizing extra caution and proactive measures during cat sitting.

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes, I am generally available during holidays. However, my availability tends to fill up quickly. It's advisable not to wait until the last minute to secure my services. If you're a repeat client and encounter a booked calendar, feel free to send me a note. I prioritize repeat clients and will make an effort to accommodate your needs by opening my calendar for you. Your satisfaction and convenience are important to me.

What is your favorite cat toy?

My favorite cat toy is the one your cat likes. I bring an assortment of engaging toys for your cat, ensuring variety and excitement. Growing my own catnip and crafting Luv Socks adds a personalized touch. My favorite toy is the one that captivates your cat and enhances their playtime experience.

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

Handling timid or anxious cats involves patient, gentle approaches. I create a calm environment, allowing them to acclimate at their own pace. I establish a quiet space and use positive interactions, respecting their cues for when to approach and when to back off. Consistent, gentle care and bonding through play and treats build trust. Adhering to routines and consulting cat parents for insights ensures a positive experience during my cat-sitting sessions.

Once again, Hillary rose to an unexpected challenge. One of our cats disappeared (in the house) before we left for the weekend. We looked diligently, did not find her, and explained the situation to Hillary, but had to catch a plane. Sure enough, when Hillary arrived the next morning, she discovered that the cat was behind a closed door and now wanting to come out of hiding. Hillary to the rescue!

Hillary always goes above and beyond to provide care and company for our cats, and to ensure that we feel comfortable leaving them. On this particular occasion, she went the extra mile to notify us of an electronic alarm on one of our household devices, and via phone instructions from us, was able to troubleshoot and disarm the alarm. Exceptional!

Hillary goes above and beyond with each visit. Despite one of our cats being very challenging with sitters, Hillary refused to give up on him. In this visit they made tremendous progress. He did not seem nearly as anxious as previous visits, and in fact he may have looked forward to her visiting towards the end of the trip. She managed to get him to take his prescription medication every day which is not an easy task. She also made sure our other cat got enough food and affection during the reservation. Her updates were detailed and she was very responsive if we had questions. Highly recommend especially if you have a cat on medication or behavioral issues with strangers. Hillary is incredible!

Hillary has been sitting for us for several years. With gentle persistence, she has drawn our extremely shy cat out of her hiding place and out of her shell. Over the two weeks that we were away, the videos show increasing engagement, including some hilarious playtime. Hillary is a cat whisperer! She is also very conscientious, and has gone above and beyond the norm for us when circumstances required.

We have had Hillary watch our 3 pets twice now. She deserves particular kudos for making it to a feeding despite Havertown being struck by falling trees and blackouts. Love getting the frequent video updates (but kinda startled when we arrived home by the bird sounds she had Alexa playing 😊). Even our old lady cat comes out to play! Your kitties will be well cared for.

A tale of two kitties- one is a shy sweetheart who is very clingy with her humans, the other is a loveable little jerk. Hillary has them both figured out which is important to keep the peace while the humans are away. Hillary sends pictures and short videos of the cats playing and eating and generally doing things for her that they won’t do for me but that’s ok, I’m open to a new routine. For me, the biggest plus in addition to the above is that Hillary is very accessible and able assuage any concerns within moments of getting in touch with her.

Hillary has been catsitting for us for several years, and has gradually, with gentle persistence, drawn our extremely shy cat out of her hiding place and out of her shell. This time we had lovely (and sometimes hilarious) videos of the cat coming out of hiding to play and be petted. Hillary is a cat whisperer! She is also conscientious, and on several occasions has gone above and beyond the norm when circumstances required.

This was the first time that we used Hillary to cat sit. We first met Hillary last week when we had an emergency situation where we needed someone to take care of our sick cat during the day while we were away for a few days. We reached out to Hillary and she responded within the hour and with in a few hours we were having our meet and greet. She came prepared with a list of questions and made some very good suggestions, bringing up things that we hadn't even thought of including being in regular communication with our other Meowtel sitter who was doing the overnight stays! She made sure to interact with our cat during the initial visit and we felt confident from our first meeting that our cat would be in good hands. Our experience was that our cat was in excellent hands. Hillary quickly established a sweet rapport with our cat. Fluffy got a lot of love and attention on a daily basis. Her daily communication included details, pics and videos of what our cat was doing and how he was doing and of things that she was trying and of their interactions together. We are extremely pleased with our experience with Hillary and so grateful that she was there in our time of need. Hillary was very professional and kind and we appreciated her proactive and friendly approach to caring for our Fluffy boy. We'd definitely recommend Hillary to anyone looking for a cat sitter.

This was the first time Hillary took care of my cat. I have a senior cat that is very clingy and finicky since her lifelong companion passed away and her favorite human left for college. I was worried about leaving her home alone with a new sitter. After the meet and greet, I knew I didn’t have to worry. Hillary was very professional and detail oriented. She wanted to everything about Tiger and had an entire list of questions to make sure she could do her job well. Plus, Tiger took to her right away. Hillary exceeded my expectations while we were gone. She took the time to learn Tiger’s preferences and adjusted to meet Tiger’s needs. Based on the photos and videos, I’d say Tiger was as happy with Hillary as she is with me. Hillary is definitely a cat lover who takes the time to understand what makes them tick. I like knowing my baby-cat is being cared for by someone like Hillary. I will be using Hillary for all my future trips and will be recommending her to anyone looking for a great cat sitter.

Hillary has done it again! My boy is a bossy bully to his sweet gentle sister. I’m used to it but Hillary picked up on it and put him in his place and gave my sweet girl the attention she so desperately craved.

Hillary does a fantastic job at keeping the owner up to date regarding the status of our cat Misha. We received updates daily of her visit with Misha along with photos and videos of him. Just knowing that Misha is being well taken care of while we were away provides peace of mind and allows us to a more enjoyable trip. Hillary is the best!

I think my cats had more fun staying home than we did on vacation thanks to Hillary. In addition to doing a thorough job with feeding, cleaning the litter box and general playtime, she introduced my cats to CatTV. chirping birds and animal sounds sent my cat Buddy straight to the moon he was so excited. I’ll keep CatTV in my back pocket for when we need to get the zoomies out or before I’m going to be away for a bit. Kudos to Hillary and her endless bag of tricks!

Hillary took great care of our purr babies! She fed them, gave them snacks, played with them, and took care of litter, and even turned on the TV for them to watch birds and mice so they wouldn’t get bored while we were away. We have 6 cats and taking care of them is quite a handful, and Hillary was able to handle it very well. She had no problems when we had to adjust our schedule and we really appreciate that. Now we are back home and see six happy well taken care of cats who are super excited to have us back to entertain them, and we are glad we booked with Hillary to help us make sure everything went smoothly while we were away.

Hillary is an amazing caretaker for our boys. She has tended to them at least 4 or 5 times by now. Our boys (2 adult brothers) feel so comfortable around her! She is one of the few people they trust.

Hillary did an amazing job taking care of my kitties while I was away. Before I left, we had a meet and greet, and Hillary went over the rules and expectations during the reservation. She said she enjoys educating her clients and she did so! She talked to me about the potential harm of my specialized vet food and gave me recommendations for other foods that are more appropriate for cats (fewer grains, more meat). When my cats were unsure about or not eating their food, Hillary brought her own food from home to help my kitties eat more. She gave me great recommendations for how to give my pills to my cats, including adding in additional supplements to help their kidneys! Even though my cat may know which treat the pill is in, it was still helpful to try new ways. She introduced me to catTV too! Hillary always made sure to send me lots of photos and videos! Thank you so much Hillary! Above & Beyond!

Hillary is a great cat sitter. Where do I start. She has knowledge of cats and is willing to share that knowledge with us. She knows the stores in the area and which store would carry a brand of food the could be used. She is excellent at medicating cats. She is aware of their personalities and the different ways to work with them. She follows the cat's schedules and various needs. She plays with the cats and spends time with them. One of my cats is 19yo and she ensures that he gets what he needs. I totally trust her with my cats and know they are getting the best care possible. And the pictures are great. I have no worries when I am gone and know the care is excellent.

Hillary was great with our kitties. Ellie is slowly, but surely warming up to her through playtime and treats. Harry is our very shy boy. He very much enjoyed the home grown catnip Hillary left for our kitties. This was all very well documented through videos and pictures that she sent us. We also have added cameras to our home so we can watch our kids sleep, eat, chase from afar. Hillary doesn't mind them at all.

Hillary was great! Our cat is a huge challenge for sitters. He gets very aggressive with strangers, often swiping, hissing, and attacking. I had warned Hillary in advance about his behavior, but she came through for us and eventually mostly won him over when we were out of town for two weeks. We have a very difficult cat and we were impressed that she persevered and took care of him when he was on his worst behavior. Thanks, Hillary! Will absolutely book again.

Excellent - Five Stars! I am very picky about the care of my cats and Hillary covered all the bases with perfection. I’ve never used a cat sitter service before as a family friend would look in on the cats on occasions I was away. When this person could no longer help us, I discovered Meowtel and Hillary Bloom popped up at the top of the ratings list of cat sitters in the area. Hillary was scheduled to check in on the two cats over several separate scheduled outings. She followed instructions perfectly regarding special feeding requirements and such. She cleaned up dirty cat dishes and all the litter boxes while making an effort to get to know and interact with each of the cats during her scheduled visits. Hillary was punctual, reliable and provided detailed updates of each visit via the Meowtel app. She also fed fish in 2 tanks and put out food and water for outdoor critters! The Moewtel app is easy to use and enables communicating directly with Hillary. She promptly responds to messages. Having confidence my cats are well looked after in the particular way I need reduces anxiety of being away from home. I look forward to future trips away while having my cats looked after by Hillary. Knowing and trusting Hillary’s attention to detail provides a piece of mind. That piece of mind is the value Hillary provides and is well worth the money.

Hillary does a fantastic job with our cat Misha. This is the third time that we have used Hillary’s cat caretaking services. Hillary has an amazing talent as a cat whisperer. Misha does not like strangers, but, somehow, she puts Misha at ease to where Misha is at the door when she arrives. As Misha is a floofy cat, (aka, very big longhair furball), Hillary takes the time to groom him which a Herculean effort. Hillary also offers useful advice which helps Misha in the long run. We will always use Hillary as our cat caretaker when we are away.

I chose Hillary because of her qualifications and positive reviews about her skill with difficult cats. My cat Meisha is very anxious and was prescribed an appetite stimulant cream to be applied on her ear. Hillary assured me it would be fine and convinced me to book longer times so Meisha could acclimate. She only got meds on Meisha once, described it as messy, and canceled after 4 days because Meisha wasn't eating. I had to be by my ***** each time Hillary was over to coach her, which was unreasonable. Hillary kept complaining that Meisha was not approaching her despite being told about Meisha’s temperament multiple times. I let her skip medicine the first day to keep Meisha's stress down. Hillary then kept skipping doses without permission. Hillary catastrophized, telling me I should ask the vet for bloodwork and a feeding tube, when the medicine works. I paid for an expert so I wouldn't be worried about Meisha. Instead, I had to leave my family reunion (and say an early goodbye to family I rarely see). Once I gave Meisha her medicine, she was eating. I drove her to a relative's house where she was checked on once a day by their sitter, who did not claim the same level of credentials as Hillary and never met Meisha. She medicated her easily. Looking back at my messages with Hillary, clips of footage from my camera, and discussions with my family (three of whom worked as vet techs), I don't believe Hillary offered Meisha the care she needed. Hillary couldn’t locate the dosage ruler on the meds package and instead used her phone, which was likely off-scale. She approached Meisha head on with the meds in plain sight, looming over her and blocking her in the closet. She told me she used a thin sheet and my oven mitt instead of a towel to wrap her. Hillary used an approach-back-down-approach method that seemed to only stress out Meisha. I want to note the positives. Hillary was thorough in the meet and greet. She gave food and water and cleaned the box. She offered to water my plants and collect mail. However, I cannot say I was happy with the overall experience. I am a little miffed at how expensive this was for the amount of stress it caused. Also, while it is nowhere near as distressing as her interactions with Meisha, I was unhappy with Hillary’s cleanliness. She left a used litter scoop on my carpeted floor and drops of wet food on my cabinet. She told me early in the week that she cleaned throw up, but on her last day she asked where I kept cleaning supplies. I had left them next to Meisha’s food.

If you’re missing your fur babies, Hillary will take care of that with written updates, pictures and videos. I’m torn between keeping her a secret and letting everyone know that there is someone out there as thorough as Hillary.

Hillary has been catsitting for us for several years, and consistently does a great job. Not only does she feed the cats and clean the litter, but she spends "quality time" playing with them and providing some human companionship in our absence. Her communication skills are great--she always sends updates and photos, and responds very promptly whenever we message her.

Highly recommended!

Hillary is truly a cat whisperer. Our cat Misha, is a very skittish pet and is very afraid of strangers. During the first couple of days, Hillary didn’t see Misha, but could tell that he was there. Amazingly, Misha grew fond of Hillary, especially with the brushings! Hillary is the first stranger that Misha actually trusted to be near him. Hillary is also very dedicated and flexible pet sitter. During the pet sitting reservation, our basement flooded due to heavy rain and Hillary relocated Misha’s food & litter box upstairs so he didn’t have to maneuver around the puddles. That is the definition of dedication and of great care and concern for Misha. Hillary is also a great wealth of information. She introduced us to different kinds of food for Misha, suggestions for grooming and trimming, (Misha is an extremely floofy cat) and suggestions for administering meds. Last, but not least, Hillary provided daily reports and pictures about Misha and we were able communicate with her thru the website during our trip even though we were many time zones apart. This was the first trip where I was not concerned/anxious about Misha as I felt he was in very good hands. I will definitely have Hillary take care of Misha again when the need comes up. Hillary is the best cat sitter available today.

Hillary is an excellent sitter. She is able to handle my cats with all of their quirks and differences. They enjoyed play time with her and watching bird videos on T.V. She also sent me pictures and videos of the cats twice a day so I could see what they were doing. The videos included her playing with the cats. She taught me how to pill one of my cats and sent me a video of how she did it. For the first time in years of owning cats, I was able to give one his pill. The best part is that I was able to enjoy my vacation without the worry of how my cats were. She even asked me to let her know when I returned so that she knew the cats were under my care. She also understood that I have a fear of my cats getting out and insured that they were safe. She is pleasant and it easy to talk to her. She is also assessable if needed. I will continue to use her.

Thank you so much to Hillary for taking care of our three babies while we were away on vacation. Our one kitty Patches is very old and got sick right before us leaving and Hillary was amazing and was able to take us on last minute. She kept us updated the entire time and even took the time to syringe feed Patches on the days he was not feeling good and administer medications. He needs lots of love and attention and Hillary gave our boys just that. She is outstanding at what she does and would recommend her to anyone! Our boys now watch squirrel TV daily!

Hillary is everything someone could want in a cat sitter. Coming off of several bad experiences with other sitters, she has greatly reduced the anxiety I’ve felt about leaving my cat at home when I’m out of town. Hillary even thought of things about the care for my cat that I didn’t even think of. She even had several ways for my 20-year-old tabby to take her pill without me being there to give it to her. The best part about Hillary is the communication. She was always responsive, and always communicated anything that came up with the care of my cat. She even properly disposed of a mouse when my cat decided to catch one while we were away! Overall amazing experience and highly recommend Hillary!

If you need a trusted, knowledgeable, and incredibly caring cat sitter, Hillary is THE sitter for you! The Meet & Greet was easy to schedule and Hillary proved to be organized and thorough. She collaborates to ensure all bases are covered. Not only does Hillary understand and love cats, she will take the time to really get to know your cat(s) so that she can best meet their needs. She appreciates the quirky individual personalities of cats and really “got” our motley crew! From our 17 year old female tiny dragon in a cat suit to our 6 year old female Orange™️ tabby followed by our 2 year old sweetest of tuxie boys, Hillary understood who they are and adjusted her care accordingly. Feeding, meeting medical needs, and tidying litter are all done exceptionally but what really sets Hillary apart is her ensuring interaction and play while purrents are away. She is incredibly communicative and ready to pivot when a cat becomes extra, well, CAT. We cannot recommend Hilliary enough!

She texted and sent pictures and videos of the kitties after every visit. One of our cats needed to get a pill each day and due to Hillary's experience with cats and cat care, she used an ingenious way with a treat that our cat loved. She also called Chewy.com on our behalf when there was a problem with an order. We can't recommend Hillary high enough! She is very resourceful, dependable and knowledgeable.

She my wishes on how to feed them so that there is not any disruption in their routine. I also asked her to pill one of my cats as I had not been able to do so. She sent me a video of what she does and the routine that she uses. Also told me which was the best product to use to put the pill into. My cat is now taking his medication with no problems. She also spent time with my shy cat getting her to play. There is no doubt that I will use her again.

Hillary has taken care of our 3 cats several times over the last few months, following the retirement of our longtime pet sitter, and we have scheduled several other occasions in the future based on her conscientious and interactive care of our cats on the first few reservations. Hillary came to the meet-and-greet, with well prepared and thoughtful "intake" questions that indicated her experience with and knowledge of cats! She is very professional, but every visit when we are away is a true "visit," not just a business appointment. She engages the cats and plays with them as well as taking care of their feeding and litter needs. She keeps us in the picture (literally) with videos and text messages. We experienced a bit of a hiccup in travel plans for our most recent trip, and Hillary handled everything with aplomb. In short, we feel comfortable leaving our cats to travel, confidant that they are in the caring hands of a knowledgeable and experienced "cat person."

It’s our third time using Hillary and she is by far the best cat sitter we’ve ever had! She is an expert at giving medications to our 20-year-old cat and even has tricks up her sleeve to get the trickiest of cats to take their meds. She is also very accommodating to what our cat needs 😊

Once again Hillary provided us with a caring and professional service, keeping an eye on our silly boys. This time they were even more friendly to her, and BOTH boys seem to really enjoy her company. She introduced them to CAT TV! And Hillary sent us plenty of pics as well. Always a pleasure!

We are so lucky to have found Hillary for our kitties. Auntie Hillary has kittensat for them numerous times and each time she always goes above and beyond. Our kitties love her because she takes such wonderful care of them, as well as spoiling them like a grandmother.

We have 3 cats but when no one is home, we have to isolate one away from the other 2. When She walked in and found all 3 together, she handled it masterfully. They look forward to her visits and we look forward to her daily “cat tales” ie reports.

Frequently Asked Questions

Havertown cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $27.00. 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.
