Hi! I’m Julianne, a dedicated cat lover with years of experience caring for cats of all personalities and needs.

During my visits, I focus on making your cat feel safe and comfortable. I follow their routine closely, providing fresh food and water, cleaning their litter box, and giving them plenty of enrichment through playtime, cuddles, or just quiet companionship. I also keep a close eye on their behavior to ensure they’re happy and healthy, and I’ll send you updates so you can have peace of mind.

I know how important it is to leave your pet in trustworthy hands, and I treat every cat as if they were my own. If you’re looking for a caring, reliable sitter who truly understands and loves cats, I’d love to help!

I have two cats of my own, Daisy and Macchiato, who I adore. They’re so sweet, unique, and silly, and I love dedicating my time to caring for them and making them happy. Before adopting my cats, I spent many years volunteering at animal shelters, where I gained hands-on experience with cats of all ages and temperaments. I’ve even fostered kittens, so I understand how to provide patient, attentive care - whether your cat is shy, playful, or in need of extra love while you’re away.

Learn More About Julianne

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I enjoy getting to spend time with cats and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. Every cat has a unique personality, and I love earning their trust and learning their quirks. It’s rewarding to know that I’m helping both the cat and their owner feel at ease. I also find joy in the little moments, such as a shy cat slowly warming up to me or a playful kitten running around. As a compassionate and helpful person, being able to provide comfort and companionship to cats is something I truly love.

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have two cats named Daisy and Macchiato. I adopted Daisy when she was a tiny kitten, and I really enjoyed getting to see her grow up. She’s so confident and friendly; she loves to explore new places and meet new people. I adopted Macchiato more recently, only a few months ago. She’s so relaxed and sweet. She’s actually sitting in my lap as I type this! After warming up to each other, Daisy and Macchiato became friends and are now inseparable. They constantly run around and play with each other, and I’m so glad I decided to adopt each of them. Spending time with them is one of the best parts of my day.

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

My priority is to make them feel safe and comfortable letting them set the pace. I move slowly, avoid sudden movements or loud noises, and allow them to observe me from a distance without pressure. Instead of forcing interaction, I use a calm voice, blink slowly to show I’m not a threat, and sometimes offer treats or a toy. I also pay close attention to their body language to understand their comfort level and respect their boundaries. If a cat prefers to hide, I let them, but I’ll check in to ensure they’re eating, drinking, and using their litter box. Over time, as they realize I’m there to care for them and not to intrude, they often become more comfortable. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible.

Julianne is reliable, communicative, and overall an absolutely fantastic cat sitter. With four cats and two guinea pigs, our house can be quite a handful, but she handled everything seamlessly and gave each of our animals great care and attention. We are new to the area and had just moved in about two weeks before her care window, so the house was still mid-unpacking, with some rooms still in a mild state of incompleteness, and the guinea pigs set up in a temporary space. Julianne rolled with it effortlessly and it never impacted the excellent care she gave our pets. We were especially grateful to find such a trustworthy sitter so quickly through Meowtel. She sent us pictures every day she cared for our crew, which we really appreciated. Our animals were happy and well cared for, and we’re already looking forward to rebooking with Julianne for our upcoming trips!

Julianne was amazing as usual and was also available and ready to jump in to check on the cats when I had a family emergency and needed to extend my trip. My cats LOVE her and I’m so so thankful for her. 🙌🏼

Julianne was the BEST! My kitties warmed up to her quickly and she made sure to communicate regularly and send pics, which eased my mind. I could tell they were being taken care of and were happy in the pics - will definitely hire Julianne again!!

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.

Lancaster 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 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!
