I'm Madison
Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
My cat Cali is a special needs cat with one eye, and before adopting her she was one of my many foster kittens I have had throughout the years. Every year I foster kittens through the Animal Shelter, and I have experience with kitten and cat medical care (including administering medicine, post op care, etc.)... Hello, my name is Maddy! My passion for cats started when I was young with my childhood cat Tiggy, and it has continued to be a big part of my life as an adult. I am constantly around cats, as I own one and my parents own 2!
My cat Cali is a special needs cat with one eye, and before adopting her she was one of my many foster kittens I have had throughout the years. Every year I foster kittens through the Animal Shelter, and I have experience with kitten and cat medical care (including administering medicine, post op care, etc.).
I also have a slightly ~ spicy ~ cat, so nothing scares me and I am not afraid to clip nails, or deal with an aggressive/scared/or special needs cat. Any breed, personality type, or disability is welcome in my care and I will share the love I have to give with every cat I interact with.
I work in marketing and I am completely remote, meaning any time of the day I can spend time with your cat (even while working). My ultimate goal is to share the abundant love I have for cats, creating a positive and enriching experience for every feline friend that crosses my path.
Learn More About Madison
What is your experience with cat sitting, and how long have you been doing it?
I’ve had cats my entire life, so being around them feels like second nature. I began cat sitting and fostering about five years ago, during the start of the pandemic. What started as a way to help out during a tough time quickly turned into something I truly love. I combined my lifelong love of cats with my passion for caring for animals, and it’s been incredibly rewarding. When I’m watching cats, it never feels like work—because when you love what you do, it doesn’t feel like a job at all.
What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?
What I enjoy most about cat sitting is the quiet bond that forms between me and the cat. Every cat has their own unique personality, and I love earning their trust—especially the shy or cautious ones. There’s something really special about connecting with an animal who might not warm up to just anyone. Whether it’s playing, cuddling, or just sitting near them while they nap, I genuinely enjoy being a calming, consistent presence for them while their humans are away.
Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?
I have one cat, her name is California Marie but Cali for short! She is an all black, Maine coon mix and is almost 20lbs, so she is a big girl with beautiful long hair. She also has one eye, and partial vision as she had to get her eye removed as a kitten. I had her as a foster during Covid and met her at only 5 weeks old, but once I had her I knew she was my baby. She is a very loving girl, playful and fun, and she is very unique!

Madison was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Titi! She was kind, patient, and incredibly attentive. She made sure Titi had everything she needed, gave her lots of love, and kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Titi can be shy and anxious, but Madison respected her space and cared for her with so much compassion. During an unexpected emergency at my apartment, when maintenance needed to enter while I was out of town, Madison went above and beyond to help. She moved Titi’s food and litter into a separate room, closed the door, and even put a sign on it asking that no one open the door to ensure Titi stayed safe and secure. That meant so much to me and truly showed how thoughtful and caring she is. It was clear that Madison genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. She is reliable, trustworthy, compassionate, and always willing to go the extra mile. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional pet sitter. I will absolutely trust her with Titi again in the future. Thank you, Madison, for taking such amazing care of my little girl! ❤️🐾

Madison is absolutely wonderful! I feel so lucky to have found someone I can completely trust with my cat, Titi. She is incredibly kind, caring, responsible, and attentive. Titi can be shy and tends to hide, especially when she’s stressed, and Madison is always so patient with her and respects her space while still making sure she has everything she needs. 💝

Madison did a great job with my kitties. She even got the shy one to warm up to her. Great communication about arrivals and plenty of pictures for me to see my kitties were happy while I was away.

Frequently Asked Questions
Reservations officially begin at 12:00 AM in the sitter's time zone on the start date. Cat Parents may cancel within 24 hours of booking and receive a full refund, as long as the reservation has not yet started. After the first 24 hours, the following cancellation rules apply:
- More than 48 hours before the reservation start date: Full refund. The sitter will not receive any earnings.
- 24–48 hours before the reservation start date: 50% refund. The sitter will earn 50% of their planned earnings.

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 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 Meet & Greet!

This was my first time using Meowtel, and my first time connecting with Madison to watch my cat, Wren. If you need someone who will go above and beyond and treat your cat like her own, look no further than Madison! She went above and beyond in all aspects. She sent me communication both in the mornings and at night (when she arrived at my location, when she got inside the apartment, and when she left). She sent me updates about how my cat was doing the entire time I was gone, and what's more is that she sent beautiful pictures and videos showing how my dear cat was doing while I was away. Plus, she somehow got my shy cat to come out of her shell and feel comfortable which I believe truly speaks to Madison's way with cats. It was clear how much she cared for my animal, and I would recommend her to anybody should they ever need a cat sitter. Trust, you are in good hands.

This is our second time booking Madison and she was excellent yet again. This time she had the added challenge of working with both of our cats, that have to be kept separate. Not that this proves to be a challenge at all for her, she jumped right in and handled everything perfectly. Maddy was wonderful, not only did she take great care of them both by playing and spoiling them with treats, but also cleaned up a mess from a hairball. Thank you, Maddy!

Madison accepted my booking on relatively short notice (on the recommendation of another sitter I'd used) because I didn't do a great job of planning ahead. She was great with my 3 boys and went above and beyond by helping me out by taking care of a couple things I forgot when I raced out of the house to catch a flight like my ADHD a** was on fire (and also, not actually late, because I apparently can't read a clock). Some days adulting it hard. Regardless, she was gracious about my "please help, I screwed up, sorry" message and sent me tons of cute photos and videos. Definitely recommended without hesitation.

Maddy took exceptional care of our two elderly kitties while we were away. I really appreciated the updates she sent each day! I had major peace of mind knowing that they were doing well and well taken care of while we were gone. We definitely plan to book again in the future, as needed.

Madison is absolutely FANTASTIC!!!! As a Meowtel cat sitter myself, she is by far my favorite sitter and always my go to for my own cats! She’s managed to charm my feisty/picky orange boy, which is no small feat. I can’t recommend her enough! She’s gives thorough updates, with lots of pictures and videos and goes above and beyond for my cats 1000/10

Maddy once again was a lifesaver with watching our kitties. We got a last minute invite to the shore for a week, and Maddy arranged her schedule so she could take care of Tonka and Taylor. She always sends awesome photos and videos and we can just tell how much our babies love her. She even had to trouble shoot a broken door handle on the last day 🙈 Thanks Maddy!!

As always, I highly recommend Madison! My cat absolutely loves her, which says everything. She is kind, reliable, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. It gave me real peace of mind knowing my cat was comfortable, well cared for, and happy while I was away. I truly appreciate the attention and care she provides and would gladly trust her again anytime. 🐾

Recently, Madison took care of my beloved cat while I was away, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of care and attention my baby received. Additionally, Madison provided regular updates and photos, which helped me feel connected and reassured while I was away. Knowing that my baby was in such capable and caring hands allowed me to enjoy my time away without worrying about her well-being. I highly recommend dear Madison to anyone in need of professional and reliable cat sitting services.
