I'm Dana | Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA

Hi :) My name is Dana and I’m here to take care of all your pet parent needs and concerns while you’re away! I have 2 sweet babies, (Stella -Tuxedo, Jasper - Orange boy, check out the pictures on my profile) so I know exactly what it’s like to want to travel while still making sure your cats are well taken care of. I have had my cat Jasper for 4 years and his sister Stella for 2 years. Before that, I grew up with dogs, cats, fish and the occasional baby bird we’d nurse back to health after it fell out of our tree, so I am no stranger to animals! Having 2 cats of my own, I know how hard it can be to find people who will love your cats as you do while also respecting the boundaries that cats set with us. I petsit (cats and dogs) for my friends while they’re out of town and have made so many close bonds, ...

Learn More About Dana

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

I have been cat sitting for over 5 years now! I started small with watching friends pets, cats and dogs alike! I then began fostering, and taking care of the cats around my neighborhood. From there I adopted my own cats and never looked back

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

Yes! I have 2 cats, Jasper and Stella! Taking care of them is what made me realize how amazing and rewarding cat sitting can be!

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

Introductions of course! :) Making sure the new cat parent is comfortable is my top priority! I know it can be daunting trusting someone new with your cat. So answering and asking as many questions as possible, so we’re both prepared is the best approach. And making sure that they know, Im not just a sitter but also a resource for any cat related questions or concerns they may have! I have researched and studied cat behavior and tend to lend suggestions to parents when warranted!

Dana is the best! She is so sweet with my 20 year old, blind, and diabetic kitty. She even puts on a bird chirping channel. Zoe and I are so thankful for Dana’s extraordinary care. 11/10 🌟

Frequently Asked Questions

Philadelphia cat sitting rates will vary based on the pet sitter's experience and expertise, but the average price for a cat sitter is $32.00. 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.
