I'm Leanna
Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
I want you to feel comfortable leaving your kitties while you go adventure just like I do! I always go above and beyond with my care. From spending a little extra time to play, to cleaning and sometimes even bringing over an extra toy... Hi! I'm Leanna. I have substantial experience pet sitting many types of animals, but definitely cats. I have 2 orange kitties of my own! I love engaging with all those lovely cat personalities! Every one is different and every one is pampered in different ways - I love how you treat your kitty as family!
I want you to feel comfortable leaving your kitties while you go adventure just like I do! I always go above and beyond with my care. From spending a little extra time to play, to cleaning and sometimes even bringing over an extra toy. ;) I understand that some cats are stand-off-ish and I'm open to that as well! I have a calm demeanor and will never force your fur baby to do anything they don't want to do with me, a stranger. Usually cats warm up to me very quickly, though.
Apart from loving everyone's cats, I’m a Registered Nurse and Certified Wellness Coach. I'm a caregiver at heart, for sure! In my free time, I love hiking, cycling, reading, meditation, and body positivity. I'll never fat shame your chunky kitty ;)
I can't wait to meet your precious fur babies! I'm new to Meowtel, but I've well versed-on cat care. Thank you for considering me! I'm happy to give medications, supplements, ointments, eardrops and injections.
Learn More About Leanna
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have owned 2 cats for 7 years. They are very well taken care of! (AKA they are bougie/fancy cats haha!). I have housesat for cats and dogs multiple times, sometimes for a couple weeks at a time. My first cat sitting gig was way back in 2017. It was a joy to meet new kitties, play/befriend them, and make sure their owners were 'in-the-know' the whole time, so they could have a great and relaxing time away from home.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I do! I have two orange tabby cats, named Sunny D and Tang. They are certainly my children!
What is your typical process for working with a new cat parent?
I would love to do a meet & greet with your cats before committing to sitting. Things I'm checking out: the feeding and play routine, little box access, times of day you're looking for me to care for your cats, general ability to get along with cats and owner, distance to travel. This is not an exhaustive list, but just some things I'm checking out before I commit.

Words cannot express how grateful we are for Leanna and the love and care she gives our little guy. We were a little nervous leaving for our last trip as it was the longest we had ever been apart from Goose, but as always, knowing Leanna was watching him gave us such peace of mind. Goose can be a little scaredy cat and demanding at times, but thanks to Leanna’s patience, love, and care, they quickly bonded. He even let her give him a brush — a true miracle! Cannot recommend her enough!!

Leanna took great care of our 3 cats, including our super shy boy and our complicated senior with oral syringe medication. Great updates the whole time we were gone, fantastic attention to detail, and made us feel totally confident and worry-free our whole trip. Will definitely book with Leanna again!

Leanna arrived at my apartment when the smoke alarm was going off and walked up 9 flights of stairs to ensure my Buzz was safe. She gave great updates and I could tell he enjoyed her play time.

Leanna was amazing with our cat, Goose! He tends to be shy around new people, but she won him over immediately. She sent us great updates, followed all our instructions, and left the place spotless. We were able to fully enjoy our vacay knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend!!

Leanna was AMAZING! She did a great job handling even my feisty boy Jasper! She gave timely updates and still checked on my cats while having car troubles. She was so kind, sent lots of pictures and videos! And treated my cats like her own. Would definitely recommend and will be using her again in the future :)

I have left feedback for Leanna before, because she took such excellent care of our ancient cat who needed a lot of considerations. He loved her and they had a good time when we were away. Eventually, we ended up with two young kitties with very different needs and personalities. Plus, they're escape artists. Because of Leanna, we weren't worried at all. She just has the touch. I think our cats might have been sad when we got home! Leanna is so great communicating and checking in, and she just exudes kindness and good humor. Every cat we've had has loved her, and that's probably because she genuinely loves them. We are always happy to trust our boys and our home to Leanna. She's the best!

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.
Philadelphia 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!

Leanna was amazing! She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and attentive with all our care directions, super nice and personable, and best of all really was genuinely excited to meet our three cats. Leanna’s communication was clear and responsive throughout, and she kept us up to date with photos and videos, even of our shy guy who never comes out for sitters. She really went above and beyond, and we hope she’s available next time we have to leave our kitties at home!

Leanna is amazing. We have a very old cat, and she was extremely kind and caring toward him. She was attentive, gave us really great updates, and our grumpy old guy loved her. She even watered my plants when the weather was hot. She's also a very good communicator who set our minds at ease immediately. We cannot recommend Leanna highly enough.

Leanna was great, my one cat was having some separation anxiety issues when I first left for my trip and she made sure to keep me updated on how was doing/if he was getting better. She was also very accommodating when I added more dates to the reservation to help with the separation anxiety. I highly recommend her as a cat sitter!
Response from Leanna
Thank you so much for this review, Christine! Stella and Lucifer are awesome!

Leanna is the best cat sitter! She fed my cat her multiple pills/enzyme everyday, cleaned up her litter and water bowls, and played with her and sent me plenty of videos and photos. Leanna is very reliable and is very comfortable with cats. Thank you, Leanna!!

This was our second time booking Leanna through Meowtel, and once again she did a wonderful job caring for our senior cat. She visited once a day and made sure to give her two pills, serve her wet food, clean her bowls, refresh water, and tidy the litter box. She also spent time playing with her, which we really appreciated. She was punctual, consistent, and sent us plenty of updates, photos, and videos each day. It gave us peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good hands. Highly recommend!
