Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA

Hi! My name is Emily. I am a cat owner(or they own me rather) of 6 cats. I love hanging out with kitties.

I am a cat owner(or they own me rather) of 6 cats. I love hanging out with kitties. It is important to me when I go out of town to find someone who loves my cats just as much as I do and I want to provide that for other pet parents. I know how stressful it is to be out of town without your cat, and worrying if they are ok. I will give frequent updates and pictures so you can feel comfortable leaving your feline friend in my hands. Hope to hear from you :)

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

This is the second time Emily has taken care of my cats, and once again, care and communication were excellent. She made sure my boy took his pill (not always easy), and I'm sure he will now look forward to her trails of treats.

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 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 very reliable and communicative during her visits to see my cat, Honey. Unfortunately, Honey can smell the scents of Emily's cats and started hissing at her. However, Emily still made sure all the tasks were taken care of. Thanks Emily!

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.

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 $26.00. 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!
