I'm Rachel | Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
I have been lovingly described many times as a cat lady and I wholly accept it: I have had at least one cherished cat by my side since I was little and would have many more if I had the space for them! I'm currently a cat mom to a sweet (and sometimes spicy)lady who was rescued from a cat colony in West Philadelphia and a little tuxedo girl rescued from NJ who very much believes she’s a dog. I've also fostered numerous cats and kittens over the years, all of whom have gone on to loving homes of their own. I've been a professional pet sitter since 2008 and I have a wide variety of experience...
Rachel's Reviews
Jason
Rachel was able to charm my very shy cats to come out and greet her by the end of my trip. Daily videos, pics, and summary of how each visit went. Very happy I could enjoy my trip and not worry about leaving them home.
Natan
rachel is extremely reliable and professional. i felt totally confident having her take care of my cat when i had to go out of town unexpectedly due to a family emergency and then stay out of town for over a week. rachel sent updates every day and i felt a lot better about being away knowing that my cat was comfortable enough with her to come out from under the couch and cuddle. ty rachel!

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 $29.00. 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.
