I'm Rachel | Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA
My name is Rachel and consider me your kitty's new best friend! I recently returned to Philadelphia after 23 years in NYC, and my cat sitter experience has been for friends and colleagues over the years. Still somewhat heartbroken after losing my cat of 15 years, Mimi, I am not quite prepared to welcome a new feline family member into my home, but I am missing that furry face time and have plenty of love to share. I am a quiet, patient presence, and believe that a cat's domain needs to be respected and, above all, that they should be given the love and devotion they deserve - or as much as they will tolerate from us! In addition, my attention to detail will ensure that...
Rachel's Reviews
Vanessa
Rachel took the most loving and incredible care of our cat while we were out of the country! We are always a little nervous about how our cat will do, and Rachel consistently went above and beyond to keep her engaged, happy, and so comfortable. Also! The pictures & videos she sent are already safely saved in our all-time favorites folder. Feeling very grateful!
Elsbeth
Rachel was amazing. Could not ask for a better cat sitter. Literally more than we could have ever hoped for!!
Matthew
I'd never left my cats for more than 4 days, but felt confident leaving them for a week, with Rachel taking great care of them. Rachel is amazing. The updates are always thorough and funny, my cats love her, she's extremely detail oriented, communication is super easy.

I am always reluctant to leave my elderly cat when I need to travel, but I feel very reassured that she is in good hands with Rachel. She goes above and beyond for Mini.

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 $32.00. 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.
