I'm Leanne
Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
I have owned cats since the age of 12 and I am very good with them, some have called me a cat whisperer ^_^
I am a foster cat mom and have a cat of my own whose name is Miso. Miso is my heart healer and my baby and my love. I love my babies and fosters with my whole entire heart... Hi my name is Leanne (she/her) and I am an animal lover who absolutely has a soft spot for cats. I'm vegan, pan, and live in Fishtown!
I have owned cats since the age of 12 and I am very good with them, some have called me a cat whisperer ^_^
I am a foster cat mom and have a cat of my own whose name is Miso. Miso is my heart healer and my baby and my love. I love my babies and fosters with my whole entire heart.
I am very comfortable giving medication to cats as I have done so many times with cats I've owned and the ones I foster. I will respect your cat's boundaries and will eagerly welcome cuddles and give them all the pets they ask for. I love all babies and talk to them and will treat them with kindness and love.
I understand that cats are your babies and they are precious angels who deserve to be spoiled and treated with courtesy and respect!
I currently foster cats from ACCT so I have lots of experience taking care of many different kinds of cats, I also catsit for almost all my friends who have cats. This is my passion. 😻
Learn More About Leanne
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I have been cat-sitting for people and friends for at least 10 years! I love love meeting other babies, each kitty has their own personality and their own needs, so learning them and getting to know them is always fun
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
I love cuddling with the babies, and what really warms my heart is when someone tells me their cat is shy and may hide the whole time but ends up coming out and being social and friendly with me, to see the joy in their owner's messages to me is so endearing and puts them at ease knowing their baby is not hiding in fear while they're gone but feeling comfortable and making friends
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I foster cats regularly through ACCT but I also have my own boy named Miso. He is a big 7 year old baby boy. He loves cuddles and cries for attention!
How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?
I think it's very important to listen to cats and respect their boundaries, they will come out when they are ready. Some cats also are put at ease when you talk to them in a very calm, soft, and encouraging voice. My number one thing is kindness, I try to be kind and most cats really warm up to me quickly.

I had a great experience with Leanne! She took amazing care of my kitten, Junie, and even traveled through a snow storm to get to her. Junie is a shy girl and Leanne made her feel so comfortable that she started to come out and ask for pets! She also updated me with pictures and videos while I was away. Everything was clean and secure. Couldn’t ask for a better experience!

Leanne is the best! She takes such amazing care of my cats and sends lots of pictures. She even found a way to get one of my kitties to eat his wet food (a longstanding issue)! Thank you Leanne!

Leanne took amazing care of my cat and I would reach out to her again for petsitting! On day one I could tell my cat was completely comfortable and enjoying being under her care. She was responsive and sent plenty of pictures of my cat’s activities during her visit while I was away. I’m very grateful!

Leanne went above and beyond taking care of my shy cats to the point she was holding them by the last visit. Very happy to know they were taken care of and played with while I was away.

Meowtel is a marketplace that connects cat parents with independent sitters. For eligible reservations booked and paid for through Meowtel, the Meowtel Promise explains how we support cat parents if something unexpected comes up.
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!

My first time hiring someone to look after my babies and Leanne was amazing. They have autofeeder for dry food but i wanted them to also get wet food while I was away. She came by each day to give all 4 of them wet food, scoop litter boxes, and play with them send. Sent me photo and i was a little jealous when she sent some of my shy cat that i did not think would show his face! But my cats loved her. I now know who I can trust next time I go away for over a week.

Leanne was a wonderful caretaker for our girl while we were away for a week! She stayed overnight and was amazing with our special-needs cat. She administered daily medication and took great care in feeding her per our instructions. She also took great care of the apartment! Leanne even captured beautiful photos of Rocky that we will cherish forever. We will be glad to have her back anytime… and so will Rocky! Thank you, Leanne, for being so trustworthy and loving. That is priceless!

Leanne is kind and caring and is an excellent cat parent and cat caretaker! I felt so at ease being away knowing that my crew was safe and sound. Leanne is a great communicator and sent lots of pictures and updates daily. She’s open and clear about what’s needed for your cats and I highly recommend her!

Leanne was amazing! My cats warmed up to her right away, and I felt completely at ease leaving them in her care. She sent me great photos, spent time playing with them, and kept my place tidy. She truly went above and beyond! I would absolutely have her watch my cats again!

Leanne was so patient and kind with my reticent cat, Shadow. She really took the time before the booking to have both Shadow and I warm up to her, even bringing a blanket over to help Shadow get used to her scent. Thanks, Leanne!

Leanne always takes great care of our kitty. She provides daily updates and really nice photos. Our cat is a senior now and is affected by our absences more than in the past. Leanne knows just how to take care of her. We recommend Leanne highly.

Leanne was fantastic throughout the entire process. She was responsive and communicative early on, provided updates and photos each day she was there. My cats warmed up to her super quickly and were well taken care of. She made sure she made sure to see where everything she needed was during the meet and greet. I'll happily use Leanne again in the future.

Leanne was so so wonderful with taking care of my boy!! My cat had recently been dealing with some urinary tract issues (and as a result diet changes) but Leanne was very clear with her updates which made me feel less worried while away and I came back to a very happy and healthy kitty! Leanne went above and beyond taking care of my cat and my home and I 100% recommend Leanne for any cat sitting needs. Thanks Leanne!!
