I'm Gabby

Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA

Hi there! My name is Gabby and I’ve been a cat owner my whole life. I grew up with cats and continued to own my own in adulthood. My girls are named Ellie and Willow! I’m addition to owning, I also volunteered at Main Line Animal Rescue for 2 years helping to care for cats and kittens in their shelter. I’ve learned to administer medication, connect with cats safely, and love them all no matter their circumstances! I’ve been cat-sitting for many of my friends locally for years,... Hi there! My name is Gabby and I’ve been a cat owner my whole life. I grew up with cats and continued to own my own in adulthood. My girls are named Ellie and Willow! I’m addition to owning, I also volunteered at Main Line Animal Rescue for 2 years helping to care for cats and kittens in their shelter. I’ve learned to administer medication, connect with cats safely, and love them all no matter their circumstances! I’ve been cat-sitting for many of my friends locally for years, and would love to branch out to my broader community.

Some final notes about me… I’m an event planner, so I work random hours each week. Which makes me a great candidate if your feeding times are less strict! Most days I work 9-5(ish) but have some flexibility depending on my week. With that being said, I love to make sure I make extra time for the kitties and give them extra scratches if dinner is 5 minutes late (I know my cat can read the dinner clock better than I can!)

Learn More About Gabby

What do you enjoy most about cat sitting?

I love learning their personalities! Every cat is so different which makes them equally as fun. My girls are both so different, so I have learned to lean into each cats demeanor to make sure they are loved in the best way possible.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a cat sitter?

I would recommend finding someone that you’re comfortable communicating honestly with. That includes phone calls, texts, emails, etc. You need to be able to vibe with your sitter so that you can more easily trust them with your pets.

How do you ensure the safety & security of the cats and the home while cat sitting?

I focus on what the cat owner wants! Every home, apartment, and condo is different. Every cat parent is different too! So I focus on what they need and want, and make sure to follow that. While I do believe general pet safety is extremely important, the owner knows their pet better than myself. I do also make sure to ask for all vet information, carrier location, and emergency contact information before I start sitting. This is a no brainer, as I want to be prepared for any and all emergencies.

Gabby is a friend to felines everywhere! She always makes sure to give them lots of love, follows directions to the letter for feeding time, and always treats my babies like they’re her own. I know I can trust her with my precious kitties whether it’s for a day or a week.

Gabby is my go-to for a cat sitter for my two cats and has been for almost 5 years! She is attentive, communicative, flexible, and very knowledgeable as a lifelong cat owner herself. I trust her completely with their care when I am away, and know that my babies will always get lots of love and affection from her!

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!
