Learn More About Emily

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love meeting new cats and learning more about their likes and dislikes. It is really fun to see them play and cuddle(on their terms)

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I have 6 cats. Cantaloupe(orange tabby), Bob(tuxedo), Luna(siamese), Squiggles(tuxedo), Perdy(tuxedo)and jasmine(void). They are varying in ages but overall get along with each other. Luna and Cantaloupe (Canty for short) love to groom and cuddle together

Are you usually available during holidays?

Yes. I am available during all major holidays. Weekends are typically open as well. I don't do a lot of traveling myself so my schedule is pretty open. If there is a specific date you need that I don't have open, I may be able to open it for you

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

I take my time and wait for them to come to me if they want to. If they don't I will just sit in the room with them and speak in a quiet soothing voice

Emily was fantastic! She communicated with me every step of the way, which I really appreciated, and followed all of my care instructions thoroughly. I felt totally at ease while I was away and will absolutely be booking her again for future trips!

Emily did a great job taking care of my cats! I came back from a long trip and my cats were happy and healthy, and clearly had been taken care of well. My cats were even cuddling with her and laying on her, which is always a good sign. Highly recommend and will book her again in the future.

Emily is incredible! She quickly responded when I needed to make a change to my reservation and took the time to virtually meet me and my fur child before the actual visits. Everything we spoke about on the meet and greet she made sure to note in all of her updates throughout the reservation and included plenty of pics! My cat has lots of energy and I was nervous she wouldn’t have enough play time while I was away but Emily made sure to really tire her out each visit. She’ll be my go-to any time I need a sitter!

Emily was fantastic with our two cats - charmed our standoffish king and entertained our fickle princess. Sent amazingly detailed updates with a ton of pictures each day, and went above and beyond with our mail/packages. Will book her again!

Emily was a wonderful cat sitter for Fig! Emily was extremely detail oriented and thoughtful. She sent frequent updates and it seemed like Fig had a great time with her. I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone looking for a sitter.

Emily loves cats so much that she has seven of her own and often fosters through agencies, takes in strays, and helps community members find homes for neighborhood cats. She’s very caring and nurturing, and has nursed many cats back to health after surgeries and through illnesses. She’s proficient in administering medication to cats, and loves spending time being with them and caring for them. You will have a great experience if you hire her!

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 $26.00. 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.
