Cat Sitting in Philadelphia, PA

I’ve been a lifelong cat owner and passionate animal lover, aware that each cat has its own personality, pace, and comfort zone. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats with diverse temperaments—ranging from outgoing and playful to shy or anxious—and I understand that new people or changes in routine can sometimes be stressful for them.

I’ve been a lifelong cat owner and passionate animal lover, aware that each cat has its own personality, pace, and comfort zone. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats with diverse temperaments—ranging from outgoing and playful to shy or anxious—and I understand that new people or changes in routine can sometimes be stressful for them. I am patient, observant, and comfortable giving cats the space they need to feel secure, while still ensuring they receive proper care.

I approach every home with professionalism and respect, recognizing the importance of building trust when I’m invited into someone’s space. I pay attention to details, am reliable, and strive to stick as closely as possible to your routines.

My main goal is to make your time away stress-free for both you and your cat. I aim to provide a calm, reassuring presence so your cat feels safe, and you can relax knowing they are in caring, capable hands.

Learn More About Rosie

Do you have kitties yourself? What are their names?

I do have a cat, I've almost always lived with a cat/s. While growing up we always had cats and my mom taught me how to care for and raise happy, social cat. My cat at home is named Pearl, she's a small black cat with a loud mouth and a lot of spunk. She invited herself into my house one night after many nights on my porch in a winter shelter I made for her.

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

To ensure the safety and security of the cats and the home I would maintain the owners routine closely, monitor the cat's health and make sure there's no potential food toxins within their reach. I would follow the guidance of the owers in regards to their security system if they have one, and make sure to be very careful when entering/leaving the house. I would collect the owner’s contact info, vet details, and keep emergency instructions handy. Knowing where carriers, food, and supplies are located, and awareness of nearby emergency vets just in case.

How do you handle cats that are particularly timid or anxious?

I let them come to me so they can have a sense of security/control and open up in their own time. I walk calmly, speak softly, and keep my body language relaxed, I avoid any loud noises or sudden movements. I try to slowly build trust with the cat and let them control the pace. While it's great to be able to interact closely with the cats while cat sitting, i understanding some cats simply wont get friendly and that's ok, I can check up on them from a distance to make sure they're doing well.

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!
